"I know thy works," said the Voice to the Laodiceans, "that thou art neither hot nor cold: I would thou wert hot or cold . . . because thou art lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spue thee out of my mouth." And the Voice is the verdict of destiny to every nation that has taken its place at the world's council board.
