Excerpt from A More Christian Industrial Order
A distinguished ethical teacher of New York City recently remarked in conversation: "The Christian Church believes that Jesus is the disclosure of the purpose of God for all time. Why, then, does not the Church find in Jesus a solution for the industrial question of our day and offer the guidance which it claims to possess?" It is a challenge which Christians dare not refuse. It puts to the practical test our assertion that Jesus is the wisdom of God.
There are some who postpone all Christian readjustments of society until the present evil age shall have been ended by the visible advent of Christ in judgment. Until that occurs they see no prospect of abolishing war or terminating industrial strife. But to most Christians of our generation the judgment is no future event merely, but an experience through which we have lived in the awful years of war with its exposure of greed and pride and trust in force. Others are content to sketch the vision of the Christian society as it exists in their ideal; they have no interest in its very partial attainment in the immediate future.
