CHURCH’S DUTY
Interpreting Christian Ethic Today (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, September 26.
Speaking in the Albert Hall at a mass meeting arranged as a sequel to the Malvern conference of last year by the Industrial Christian Fellowship, Sir Stafford Cripps said it was for the Church to provide the moral force and driving power for social and economic development. It was the duty of the Church to interpret the Christian ethic in its relationship to the present-day facts of life, often hard and unpleasant facts arising from our neglect in the past. The hardest part of our task, he said, would be to convince the world that no private, selfish interests should be allowed to stand in the way of full application of the principles in which we believed. But we must first show the strength and power of our faith by our own example.
