A young
college student
talking with a friend re m a rk -
ed, " I am an glad to be grad­
uating from college this year
liecause now I can be myself.
In college I felt threatened
sometimes If I did not | * r t l -
' l|>ate In c ertain a< tlvltles or
take a stand against Issues
that others were against. Now
when 1 graduate I can makeup
my own mind and be myself.
Life Itself will be a challenge
to me to live and make a con­
tribution to society Ino longer
feel threatened If I do not go
along with the crowd.*’
Many people today take c e r­
tain stands tiecause they feel
threatened rather than chal­
lenged. The threatened feel
that they w ill not ba Included
in tlie " In " group d they donut
go along. They feel that to he
different Is to lie a square.
They feel that It Is better to
follow the line of least re sis­
tance than to resist In the
least. Even when all the moral,
religious or environmental
training of the Individual says
that certain acts may be wrong
the Individual may go against
all these If the feeling of being
threatened Is there.
Where are the people today
who are willing to ace ept a

Y e s to rd a y
In this scripture Is clearly
revealed liow inconsistent hu­
manity Is in Its consistencies.
In spite of all of our arguments
to the contrary, the major
rum be is have never been on
the side of truth.
In this esse, the kings, tie
legalists were not In agree-
n en t with Jesus of Nazareth
even when the facts w eroall In.
Those standing by saId,no; the
priests, the scribes. The only
ores who had no right have
reason to believe the “ im­
pressed th e f.” But, alldown
tie corridor of time, men have
reacted this way.
Perhaps only two men be­
lieved that ugly looking little
crate would take off a t Kitty
Hawk. Perhaps only one queer
little man In his mlna-searctr-
ing really just couldn’ t shake
the dream of incadescence,
which now gleams filtering
thr ough the room s of countless
city houses; but it happened
because he refused to be sac­
rificed by the excruciating
pains which accompany the
persistence of the dream's
fulfillm ent.
Men can save the dream and
the dream er. The dream er
must depart If the dream aare
to achieve substance.

would give the African Meth­

the world that there Is neither
Jew nor GreeK, neither bond

male - we are one In C hrist.
We must never forget our
history. Long before other
civil
rights
organizations
were conceived, the A„M.E.
Church began a protest against
segregation and discrim ina­
tion In relig io u s,po litical,ed ­
ucational and economic life,
and opened its doors to per­
sons of all races and creeds.
In 1787, there came Into being
a new
church,
protesting
against racial discrimination
at the altar of God In old St.
George Methodist Church in
Philadelphia, where Richard
Allen and Absalom J ones were
pulled from their knees In
prayer and arose to lead the
firs t civil rights demonstra­
tion,
the firs t
"Freedom
March” on American soil.
They led a small band of black
worshippers out of the church
to an old blacksmith
shop
where they unfurled the banner
that today waves over one of
the
largest Protestant de­
nominations in the world - the
banner that bears the Insignia,
"God our Father, C h rist our
Redeemer, Mar. our B ro tte r” ,
"In signo Vinces” .

ATTEND THE —
State o f the Church
As we look at this subject
we are conscious that we can
only touch on some of the
phases that are vital and at
tbe same time challenging.
I think tliat more than ever
we believe that the church
must become the Church s-
galn. The church must be true
to ttie God who called It Into
being.
The Church of Jesus Christ
is a hospital for sin sick
soils who are striving to be­
come better. It is the body
of believers united by faith
In C hrist In the fullest bibli­
cal sense, whether or not they
are members of an external
organization. It includes both
the church today at war in
the present world and the
church of yesterday whose
m em lers
are already at
peace.
It is the
church
universal.
But the church must become
truly universal, relevant to
all segments of society and
to all societies In the world.
It Is frequently said that the
eleven o’clock hour on Sunday
morning Is the most segre­
gated hour of the week. This
is not a myth, but is the truth.
Too many ministers and con­
gregations are afraid to face
the fact that ’ ’God” created
all men of one blood for to
dwell on tbe face of the earth.
They
seem to forget that
Christ said “ unless you bring
your brother with you, you
cannot see my face.” They
do not realize that no man
can effectively reach the gos­
pel of Christ and remain a
segregationist. This evil con­
fronts the Christian Church
now more than ever before.
Because of
indecision and
hostility, the youth of the na­
tion are turnmgfromthachurch
and taxing matters into their
own hands. There are some
dedicated m inisters who are
trying to Integrate their con­
gregations, but the sad thing is
that most believe in a "one
way street" approach. They
cannot conceive of joining a
