re a million years to do
it. These are a few of the illustrations furnished by
informants whom I have reason to believe.

These facts certainly furnish sufficient reason why the Church cannot
compromise with the evolutionary philosophy. To do so would be to head
herself toward destruction. She must stand uncompromised and unflinching
against that unproven and discredited theory, the acceptance of which
destroys faith in that infallible and inerrant Word on which she was
founded, and on whose "thus saith the Lord" she must rest her message to a
lost world. =There is no middle ground. To compromise would be to commit
suicide.= If the Church and the Schools are ever to come into harmony, it
cannot be because the Church gives up an infallible Book and accepts a
discredited theory in its place, and so it must be because the Schools give
up this unscientific, because unproven, theory and get back to faith in the
inerrant Word of God.

That this is the only basis on which the Church and the Schools can ever
come into harmony is strenuously denied by the evolutionists in both
Schools and Church. But their denial is meaningless when it is remembered
that they are working night and day to capture the Church, as they have
already almost done with the Schools, before we wake up to what is going
on. But it can never be done. The true Church will never surrender to those
who would remove her foundations and wreck her message.

CHAPTER II

The Present Controversy--the Cure

In the previous pages we went back to the cause of the present controversy
between the Church and the Schools. We found that the unproven and
discredited theory of evolution lies at the bottom of it. We also concluded
that no compromise that permits entrance to this theory in any form is
possible, for the truth which is at once both the life and the message of
the Church, and the theory of evolution, are mutually exclusive.

In this chapter we will seek to find the cure for this distressing
controversy. That there is a cure is beyond all possible question. And if
it is not found and applied, the controversy cannot fail to intensify until
it may force a re-alignment in the Church--a thing a great company of the
most earnest in the Church are fighting to prevent.

Now the only possible basis on which both the Church and the Schools can
take their stand, if this controversy is to be settled without final
disunion in the Church, was laid down by
