Church Duty World-Wide, Says Pastor Nation’s Problems Are Concern of All, Is Rev. Koch View. BY THE REV. C. FRANKLIN KOCH P*tnr f SI. Paul’* Lutheran Chnrrh, Richmond, Ind., and Chairman of (ha International CommUiiop nf the Indiana State Fa.torV Convention.

ing out in the Orient, a famine In southeastern Europe, a clash of borders along a European frontier, the bombing of an African city, the invention of a labor-saving machine in America, are no longer local. They have in the past, and they may again, threaten the peace and economic security of the world. Because of these, and other reasons, the churches are taking an ever increasing interest in international conditions. But, there Is a more fundamental reason why Christian people in America are taking greater interest in what happens beyond the borders of their own nation. That reason is the teachings of Jesus about ‘ the universal fatherhood of God, and the world brotherhood of men. No one can pray sincerely “Our Father,” and be unmindful of his brother across the sea. No one can study deeply the meaning of that matchless story of the Good Samaritan without realizing the many opportunities which challenge not only himself but his nation to be a “good neighbor” to the distressed victims throughout the world of unjust and I often vicious conditions. No one can follow Jesus in his mission to win publicans, outcasts. Samaritan villagers to new ways of life without searching his own heart as to whether or not he is guilty of building barriers which divide men into classes, races, nationalities, and what not, instead of uniting them in one fellowship of justice and love, bent on learning to live the one way which spells life. Study Fostered by Church So the church fasters study and discussion groups which provide an insight into international questions. It brings in lecturers and preachers who know the world situations and sympathetically present the matter of world friendship based on understanding. It encourages the staging of dramas and pageants which reveal the life of other peoples. It maihtains shelves and tables of books and magazines which show the life, manners, customs, as well as the problems of other nations. It arranges exchange of students ; and preachers between nations. It ; advocates the passage of such legislation as will increase international good-will, and opposes that which would foster strife, jealousy or hatred. Remembering that the Christian Church started on that first day of Pentecost, 1900 years ago. as an international fellowship of converts from all corners of the ancient world, the church today seeks to renew that fellowship, and to spread the gospel of universal peace and love as exemplified in the heart of its great leader, Jesus Christ.
