REVIVING A LIVING FAITH.
CALL TO ALL CHRISTIANS ;!3y Telegraph-'Press Assn.--Copyright) Received Monday, 9.15 p.m. LONDON, March 21.
The News-ChronicJe says representatives of the Churches have signed a declaration calling on Christians to do their utmost to revive a living faith in God and a more eager acceptance of the Gospel teaching. The signatories include the Bishop of Southwark, Dean Inge (Anglicans), a former Moderator, Dr. Cairns, and Lord Dunedin (Church of Scotland), Doctor Rattenbury and Sir Henry Lunn (Free Churches) and Bishop-Coadjutor Myers and Lord Diddesleigh (Catholics). Members must resist any claims of the State transgressing the limits of earthly sovereignty; procure Government respect for the value of the human personality as opposed to regarding persons as parts of the State machinery. They must claim freedom of worship and conscience, accepting persecution in the spirit of Christ and using their influence to Christianise the State’s public actions. They should seek to promote truth and justice in international dealings and discountenance sectarian bitterness.
