OUR WEEKLY SERMON

[By the Reverend Geoffrey Allen, B.A.. Chaplain of Ripon Hall, Oxford]

(Continued from October 12.)

The truth scems to be that we must combine the two conceptions of time, as other speakers have ul ready suggested. A God who is static, outside the work process, is no God because He does nothing. A God, dynamic, active as the Jews thought, would be not worth worshipping, if He was exhausted in the time process.

Fortunately, 4 Mr. Boya-Smith pointed out, it

is this clear-cut antithesis which is itself illusory. The Eternal is, as the Jews thought, active in time, as we should say, immanent in the creative process.
