His magazine, “The Eastern Methodist” has held many a Methodist true to evangelical Christian­ ity, in days when Methodism has been more or*less adrift. eign, rich and poor, black, white and yellow, employer and employee, radical and conservative, socialist and capital­ ist, and everyone else who sincerely desires to serve and follow Jesus Christ according to the light God had given him * * * I have seen so-called atheists who wouldn’t hurt such a spiritual fel­ lowship in the least.’ ” Mr. Gaebelein commenting on the above says: The “church” which this man advocates taking in Unitarians and even Atheists is the “church” of the future, Babylon “the great.” It is surely coming.
