THE following from the Ladies’ Home Journal for March is worth more than a mere passing note. It states the relation of Christianity to the barbarous war now raging in Europe. The editor of the Journal says: “It is man who is on trial: not God: not Christianity. When we speak of ‘Christian nations’ being at war, we speak wrongly. There is no such thing as a Christian nation. If Germany or France or England were a ‘Christian nation’ it would not be at war: it would be impossible. There are Christian men and women in those nations, but there are not enough of them. There is where we have been wrong: our count of Christians has not been right. “This is an excellent time for us all to do some individual thinking and stock taking: to take an inventory of our own impulses: our own thoughts: our own actions. Are our human relations right: our relations with those nearest us? When the individual is right then the nation will be right. Meantime God is right and stands ready to make men right. His truth and love are the same, yesterday, to-day, and forever. It is man who is wrong. That is why we have war.”
