"What The World Wants."
We are to "preach Christ": that is what our people need and what the .world wants. We may believe with all our hearts that "Jesus is Lord" and that there is none other name by which we or anyone else can be saved. But if we are to put that belief across and commend it to those to whom we are sent, we must have our foundation firmly fiixed and be able to answer all objections and make good our reasons, for such an overwhelming faith.
And so what is needed is study, study and yet more study, and we to be able and ready to bring out of God's treasures things new and old. I call upon all the' members of the Synod to take all this seriously to heart and to do all possible that our Clergy may have leisure and ability so to study the sacred word of God that they may be able to accomplish better their high and Holy calling: "Go Ye out and Preach the Gospel." — The Bishop of Waikato, m his charge to the Waikato Synod:
