Has Forgotten God Speaks At Vesper Service
The Rev Dr Isaac Ward of Boston’s First Presbyterian told a vast Ellipse audience that God is the author of democracy and backs the Allied nations to defeat Kaiserism. He praised the Jews, warned Germany has forgotten God, and urged honoring Hebrew history as the world fights for humanity and democracy. He cited Moses, Hezekiah, and a revived Hebrew debt to the people.
