It is seen that the above covers the whole Bible,-, and that in this conflict the very existence of the Christian Church is at stake, that is, as an evan gelical and Divinely-appointed soul winning institution. The True Church W ill Triumph Let it be here stated with a tremen dous emphasis that we have no concern as to the ultimate triumph of the Church. Our concern, rather, is for the teaching, the ministry of service of the Church in the world today, for the lost and perishing that are dependent upon the Church for salvation, and for the sheep that have no true shepherds.
