Author Description

Excerpt from The Princeton Seminary Bulletin, Vol. 31: November, 1937 The intellectual tasks of the Christian Church vary according to the problems which Christianity has to face at a given time. Certain major problems are always with us, but other problems grow out of particular circumstances. I venture to say that the intellectual task of the Christian Church in our time moves within two f oei. One is the fact - the terrifying fact - oi world disintegration. The second focus is the fact, the inspiring fact, of world unitv in Christ. In the center of chaos in the secular order stands the Beloved Com munity, the Church of the Living God, the one great hope under God for mankind at such a time as this. So let us consider the so-called thought bearings of these two facts, because after all a major task of thought is to clarify, to dehne, to state issues, to suggest solutions.
