CHRISTIANITY AND THE LABOUR PARTY
TO TH* COITOX OF T*B
Sir, —Without wishing to enter i the political side of the above , cussion, may/oho be permitted to clarify , the meaning of *ke jWjSSM in the text; “The Kingdom of G<»||i||| within you.” - As one-sees it, Jesus ref erred spg-Kaß fically to the SpirituaTKingdom, oWggp-f ously not to a worldly kingdom. MPwijL one of us—Pharisee, saint and has this -kingdom of the spirit witW®S|| [ us. In other words, the ; spirit, which we are meant to deveWjgg- . by the exercise of forgiveness, r ness, ’and goodwill to one anom^rM' 1 How plainly andrclearly, Jesus ■ self .showed by his parable of the i Samaritan, who; when the Priest . abSSip i the Leyite-—members of the same >’ as the wounded man—passed succoured the latter, and thus did ; duty to- his neighbour. B3' l outwardly, the love and sympatOTgv within, one is developing that Kiggfcfj 1 dom of the Spirit, that love-force ! call God. This is the lesson for ■ mankind, which we must learn order to enter into that 1 which is within us.—Yours, etc., ’-asSil. E. M. LOVELL-SMITH.-3p September 16, 1938. .' imst ■ ■ ______ ' ■u'mßt
