MAN A SPIRITUAL BEING
TRUTH BECOMING CLEARER. “The truth becoming clearer day by day in our times is that man cannot save himself,” said the Right Rev J. Hutchison Cockburn, Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, in a broadcast from St Giles’ Cathedral, Edinburgh. “He has tried a hundred times. He has imagined that he has within him such common sense, natural kindness, and just feeling that he has only to allow these to develop to bring him to an earthly paradise. He has -forgotten that man does not live by bread alone, that increased ease is not necessarily progress, and that an anaemic soul cannot control the inventions of his mind or the forces discovered. No amount of cleverness or of adroit management or of able organisation will last without justice, goodness and truth in their inner being. Man is a spiritual being, and his life, in order to come to highest fruition and to endure, must be grounded on spiritual truths.”
