the whole theological scheme rear ed by Augustine on the basis of the Fall must be rejected. It is a matter for surprise and regret that the necessity for such rejection has been so seldom admitted.

The controversies of recent years have, however, doge good by fore ing Christian theologians and preachers to admit that they coo no longer claim sa historical the stories of Adam and Eve, the Gar- den of Eden, and the Fall. Al ready, in consequence there are signs of a viclens reaction from belief in the infallibility of the Old Testmen. "I fear that, as snak the pendulum will swing too far, and that there will be a ten- dency to disparage the spirituvi excellence of the Hebrew rip- tures. We need to emphasise that Revered Christianity cannot be from its Judule background with out being burmed. Almost in evitably such severance will cause it to develop unwholesome affinities with the mystery-religion type of faith.

"Departure From Anglican

Tradition.

It is only since he became bishop, Dr. Barnes says, that he fully realised how vast a departure from the traditional Anglican position had caler place in the teaching of those who desired to assimilate the Church's sacramen- tal beliefs with the Rovin Com munion.
