Abstract

Whether we like it or not, we shall have discussions of unrest for many a day. We shall also discuss the attitude which the church is to assume toward that unrest. Speaking generally, there seem to be at present two answers to this latter question. The first is that of the man who has no hope that God can use the unrest to make a better world, and so must destroy it. The other sees the possibility of bringing the spirit of Jesus into the unrest and so making it certain that the world of tomorrow will be more Christian than the world of today.
