KUHNS, General Secretary of the Luther League of America. President of the Luther League of America. A FOREWORD A STRONG Christian manhood is much need ed in this country at the present time. We need men and women who believe in God, trust in Jesus Christ, who accept the Bible as inspired of the Father and written by His direction, who are daily readers as well as doers of that Word, and who do not hesitate under all circumstances to exemplify the principles which they profess to believe. Comment is made by those outside the Church that its members are not consistent,that in their daily avocations they pursue methods which belong to the world, and engage in those things which reflect upon Christianity. We have been taught as Lutherans that God gave His word directly through His servants for the instruction and comfort of His people, and having accepted that as our Creed. we should practise its truths in our daily walk and conversation. We should not be ashamed to carry the banner of Jesus Christ in our hearts and in our lives. We are nearing the time of our National Convention, which is to be educational, and we can only approach it by a preparation founded upon God's Word and upon prayer. As a Church we need an awakening, so that we will receive and fully understand the truth, and do the work required of us as followers of our leader and guide, Jesus Christ. May we all think of this seriously and prayerfully, and come to the Convention in Albany on November 12th, 13th and 11th, to receive an inspiration, which shall produce fruit, not only in ourselves, but in the congregations with which we are connected. |
