This is the hour when we are
all reading, thinking and praying
over the great question of the un-
ion of all God's people. Various
plans have been suggested, but
all have failed, but God has a plan
as old as the New Testament to
this plan. The Christian church
has held steadily for the last hun-
dred years. We require no more
of the man or woman for church
membership than the New Testa-
ment requires, and we dare not re-
quire less. Do you believe this is
true, Christianity of the New
Testament order?
