In love, which is of the very essence of the
message of the Prince of Peace, the world would find
a solution for all its ills. I do not believe there
is one problem in this country -- in the world --
today which could not be settled if approached through
the teaching of the Sermon on the Mount. The poets'
dream, the lesson of priest and patriarch and the
prophets' vision of a New Heaven and a New Earth, all
are summed up in the message delivered in the Judean
hills beside the Sea of Galilee. Would that the
world would accept that message in this time of its
greatest need
I
This is a solemn hour. In the stillness of
the Eve of the Nativity when the hopes of mankind hang
on the peace that was offered to the world nineteen
centuries ago, it is but natural, while we survey our
destiny, that we give thought also to our past -- to some
of the things which have gone into the making of our Nation.
