“GORILLA” SERMONS
MORE CONTROVERSY VIEWS OF DR. BARNES By Cable.-—Press Association. —Copyright. LQNDON, Monday. References to the controversy aroused concerning the views of the Bishop of Birmingham, Dr. E. W. Barnes, were made in Anglican churches throughout the country yesterday. Preaching in Westminster Abbey, the Bishop of Durham, Dr. Hensley Henson, urged that there was nothing necessarily disturbing about the facts of thq change in Christianity. It was the same religion in spite of all variations in its history. The Bishop of Plymouth, Dr. J. H. B. Masterman, preaching at Plymouth, said Dr. Barnes thought he could settle with a few cheap epigrams what had exercised the world’s greatest thinkers for hundreds of years. The Bishop of London, Dr. A. F. Winnington Ingram in an address to undergraduates at Oxford, urged that the Church had almost forgotten the splendour of God. If they could recapture the belief in God the Father they should be able to reconcile the nations at Geneva and solve industrial difficulties, to say nothing of settling disputes in the Church. —A. and N.Z.
