[email protected]. May-June, 1947 “Corinthians Thirteen” Charles Henry Mackintosh A preacher may possess the gift of tongues, A n angel’s voice, with powerful human lungs, And still be tinkling cymbals, sounding brass, If he lacks love, agape, caritas. Whatever language may supply the word, Unless the fact behind it can be heard Above the preacher’s pulpit eloquence, There will be sound and fury .... but no sense. Though oratory enters through the ears, It is the inner consciousness that hears. A golden tongue can never gain that goal Until it learns the language of the soul. No mortal eloquence can rise above The gentlest whisper of Immortal Love. Managing Editor’s MESSAGE NE of the chief tasks of the O church is to reach the unsaved and unchurched people with the gu.s- Volum e 22 Number 3 pel and to bring them to salvation May— June, 1947 through Christ.
