No observer can fail to see that the twentieth century will embrace a development of the spiritual side of religion such as the world has never known before, and there will be nothing "supernatural" about it, either. It will be the "natural" outcome of an evolution which has been in progress throughout the ages, and if Christ's teachings, practices, and absolute demonstrations were true, it is bound to culminate in man's realization of his divine origin and in a concept of existence diametrically opposed to that of the strict physicist.

This question of the power of faith and efficacy of prayer, it is easy enough to understand, is a very live wire, but layman, cleric, and prelate might just as well make up their minds at once that it will have to be handled. Nothing but courage is required, and, perchance, a due process of prayer might result in obtaining that. It is certainly worth trying; for almost anything is better than division and dissension especially in "things heavenly."
