Catholics, T.V. Evangelists Criticized At Bob Jones Congress
BY JOHN CONICK
GREENVILLE, S.C. (NC) - Catholics were condemned
and Protestant TV evangelists criticized by the World
Congress of Fundamentalists headed by the Rev. Bob
Jones Jr. and the Rev. Ian Paisley, Northern Irish
Protestant activist.
Nearly 2,000 people participated in the congress held at
Bob Jones University in Greenville, July 29-Aug. 7.
The Catholic Church was called “mother of harlots and
abominations of the earth” in a resolution.
Responding to a press inquiry, Msgr. Thomas R. Duffy,
vicar general of the Charleston Diocese, said, “It kind of
hurts to feel that there is a group of people these days
who are so unaware of the teachings of the church and the
witness to the gifts of Christ.
“We not only believe in the Bible, but our whole
tradition has been the preservation of the Bible, which is
the word of God,” he said.
Mr. Paisley, who had once been denied a visa to the
United States, said only the King James version of the
Bible is true. In order to obtain his visa, he had to promise
the State Department that he would not make any
political-statements.
In the congress’ closing address, Mr. Paisley said the
fundamentalists would “continue to proclaim” the Bible.
“We read it as our marching orders in the age of battle.
Bless God, we wield it like our sword.”
A resolution passed by the congress, a loose affiliation
of independent churches and mission boards, said, “The
worldwide visits of the pope surrounded by the false
charisma attributed to him by the corrupted media are
but a subtle window dressing behind which lies the
unchanging hatred of that system for true biblical
Protestant Christianity.”
Another resolution said that the popular TV evangelists
were “out of step” with a literal translation of the Bible.
The evangelists “are involved in apostasy or compromise
with it.” Apostasy is abandonment of faith or principles.
Paisley called the TV evangelists “modernist preachers”
and “the devil’s brats.”
'Faith-Healer' Archbishop Resigns
BENDING THE RULES -

Rome religious house
where the 53-year-old
archbishop has lived since
April 1982 said
Archbishop Milingo was
out of Rome until Aug.
12.
Church sources said he
had traveled to Lusaka to
collect his belongings for a
definitive move to Rome.
No successor was
immediately named for
the Lusaka Archdiocese.
Archbishop Elias Mutale
of Kasama, Zambia, has
been apostolic
administrator of Lusaka
for more than a year.
The Vatican gave no
details about Archbishop
Milingo’s new post at the
Pontifical Commission for
Migration and Tourism,
but sources said the
archbishop would
probably be required to
live at the Vatican.
