Put 1 New year 1897 was united with the Con- Testament into the hands of a gregational Union of Scotland. man of unbiased mind and he will Immediately seek to found a society like that which Jesus founded on the shores of Gallee. Such a man was John Glas who ministered to a small congregation near Dundee. - He found no Warrant in the Gospels of the Epistles for the Ipundation of a national church, and with a pure desire for a truly Christian foundation he formed a little church. His first venture was followed by others, and several communities grew up'organised on similar unes. These were called the Glasite Churches. They main- tained the necessity for the literal interpretation of the Holy Scrip- tures and they acted accordingly: they were the first Congregation- alists in Scotland.
Apart from the followers of a man called. Sandeman, the next development of Congregationalism In Scotland came through the work of the brothers Haldane. But their movement suffered from the loose ness of its organisation, but it planted its seeds well in the north of Scotland where it has grown And blossomed.
THE NEXT DEVELOPMENT The narrowness and exclusive- ness of Scottish theology condi- tloned the next development of Congregationalism. Within a very short time of each other Campbell of Rhu, MacLean of Dreghorn, and James Morrison were ex-communi- cated by the Church of Scotland and the Original Succession Church, each of them refusing to preach. the doctrine of election to salvation and the doctrine of the universality of the atonement. Thus there began a break from Scottish Calvinism which had ori- ginated in the sixteenth century when Knox returned from Geneva and was invited by the Scottish nobles to assist in their rebellion

INFLUENCE OF JESUS
There is no question as to what was the unifying and empowering influence which inspired the first Church of Christ. It was the pre- sence and, the influence of Jesus Himself, living among his disciples. And what there was existing among them in those little meetings in the Upper Room in Jerusalem we have striven to show." The secret of their strength of spiritual power. the power which was the starting point of the greatest religions movement which history has ever seen. was the Presence and power of God mediated through Jesus Christ.

ENTERTAINING DR. SUTCLIFFE
as
Dr. Sutcliffe in his early days was an Australian civil servant who a hobby used to give lectures on psychology. His lectures became so individual and spread so much con- tentment that he was at last per- suaded to give up his government position and go on a world crusade for the spreading of his particular message. He evolved a philosophi cal mental science which he termed Radiant Living and was busy founding centres and schools wherever he travelled. Quite often those individuals who carried on his work when he left were those who had been cured of unbalanced personality by his methods.
When Mr. de Silva heard that the Doctor as coming to Hong Kong he immediately got into touch with him, introducing him self, as a student of psychology.
OUTLINE OF COURSE Mr. de Silva then went on to give a very short outline of Dr. But cliffe's course. Some of the points were, Memory-training, Concen- tration, Meditation and finally Good Habits The three public lectures that were given were mere- ly introductory to the course of ten talk that followed. Mr. de Silve concluded with the hope that another opportunity would soon occur, so that he might in some detall describe the method
