MISCEGENATION
Sir.—Your report of the American Baptists’ Association and the letter of a reader on miscegenation make painful reading. Does the writer not realise the devil can and does quote scripture to his own use, especially out of its context? Remember St. Paul’s words: “Of one blood made He all nations for to dwell on the face of the earth.” The very fact that the blood of any people, provided it is in the right grouping, can be used safely for transfusion goes to show our common and apart from this our Lord Himself was not a white man. Can wp not humbly and prayerfully seek ways of helping our coloured brethren into the fellowship of love in Christ, that His prayer may come true, “that they all may be one.”— Yours, etc., ‘ (MRS) C. M. ANDERSON. MethvML July 1, 1958.
