,th en- “ You have seized control over the


church, arrested multitudes of Its pastors, confined many- of them, -and permitted not a few to be assaulted without open rebuke ol their attackers.” “ Instead of uniting the Church, you


have divided ' it between those who confirm, those who are neutral and those who couragegoiisly oppose your domina­ tion. Instead of regarding the “ confes­ sion’ ol the Church as'sacred ground, you have endeavoured tb crush out its basic'doctrine of the universal Father­ hood of God and the brotherhood of


mankind.” These charges are contMned in a strik­ J. „


ing letter addressed to Herr Hitler by Dr. Charles S. Macfarland; gfeneral secretary emeritus of the Federal; Council of the Christian Churches In America, and this was the subject of a striking sermon delivered fay the Rev. J. A. Sinclair at Clitheroe Congregational Church on Sunday evening. In his letter,. Dr. Macfarland adds a


further charge: “ Instead of doing justice to the Jews, you have permitted hem to ne harassed an(j despoiled. Your treatment o f ' them has been ruthless without the slightest appearance of mercy, even reminding one of the In­ famous edict of Herod, stretching the


hand of violence to the llttlest child.” “ No apologies are needed for Intro­


ducing into a 'pulpit such a subject as this,” Mr. Sinclair said.' “ Our common Christian faith; our onerness in the work of God. which iknows no racial barriers, demands of us a concern for our brothers in other lands.; We must have a world vision. We-cannot exist In seclusion, or In our own walled garden.


Many Open} Doors • “ A Christian looking' out upon the


world in these days sees strange con­ trasts religiously and ecclesiastically. Thinking of]missionary work]In certain countries. We realize there are greater opportunities'than perhaps ever before. One missionary wrltln'g home recently from India says there are more bpen doors there than we can enteri Then In contrast we think of a country like Eng­


land, where Christianity] might be non­ existent so far as thousands of men and women are concerned. - When we cast our eyes across to Europe, we find


churches being closed by force, religion being swamped out of existence as far as is humanly pbSslble, pastors, rind people
