‘‘CHRIST GLORIFIED BAPTISM.”
In a recent meeting a good brother
remarked that “Christ glorified bap
tism.” Whether he used just the
best word may be a question, but
that he gave utterance to an im
portant truth is undeniable. Our
Lord certainly did greatly honor
baptism. The fact needs frequent
emphasis. . So many are disposed to
regard the ordinance too lightly,
even as others have gone too far in
the other dicection. The pendu
lum swings to two extremes; but
the very swinging makes the clock
keep time. Perhaps it is well that
some have made too much of bap
tism, elevating it into a sacrament
conveying grace to the soul, and
making the recipient “the child of
God, a member of Christ’s church,
an inheritor of the kingdom of
heaven.” In the rebound of a more
spiritual faith it is but natural that
some should deny even its proper
dignity to the rite. Yet baptism is
far from being of the trivial impor
tance seem to accord it.
It is no “mere non-essential cere
mony.” The gospel knows nothing
of non-essential requirements. Every
word of Jesus is to be received and
obeyed by those who claim to be his
disciples. Baptism is a part of the
obedience he commands. Note how
our Lord honored baptism.
First in taking a common act and
solemnly setting it apart as a reli
gious rite. So far as the mere act is
concerned, divested of its gospel
significance, there is no special
dignity attached to baptism. If we
knew not that significence, there
would be no special impressiveness
in being immersed in water—no
more than in an ordinary bath. But
Jesus takes this common act, as did
his forerunner John, by inspiration
from heaven, and elevates it into the
glory of an ordinance of this gos
pel.
Then Jesus honored baptism by
his own personal example. Coming
to Jordan unto John he demands
the heaven-ordained rite, and silences
all the lingering scruples of the Bap
tist by his assuring word, “thus it be
cometh us to fulfill all righteous
ness.” With’what sublime dignity
was this sacred act invested as the
sinless son of Mary bowed his holy
head beneath the parting waters of
Jordan I No wonder the heaven
was opened by the descending Spirit
dove, while the approving word
from the Father proclaimed, “This is
my beloved Son, in whom 1 am well
pleased.” Thus we have the Divine
Trinity honoring baptism. In no
other act of our Lord’s life was ther6
so signal a manifestation of his en
tire acceptability in the sight of God.
Thus he left ns an “example that wc
should follow his steps.”
Jesus also placed special honor on
baptism in making that ordinance
so impressive in its doctrine. Bap
tism is more than a rite; it is an in
spired symbol, ever proclaiming the
fundamental facts upon which our
salvation is based. The ordinance is
the appointed preacher of gospel
truth. The element and the action
are equally essential to its teaching.
What is the fundamental gospel?
Let Paul answer: “Now 1 make
known to you, brethren, the gospel
which 1 preached unto you * *
• * how that Christ died for our
sin, and that he was buried, and that
he was raised again the third day.”
(1 Cor. 15:1-3). The whole procla
mation of saving grace centers in the
dying, buried, risen Christ. That
precious blood cleanset h from sin.
Only through that death and resur
rection do we rise from our death in.
sin to the new life in Christ. Emi.
nently fitting was it that Jesus
should leave to his followers an ordi
nance symbolically setting forth
these glorious things. In the water
of baptism we declare our cleansing
from sin by his grace; in the action
of baptism we show forth our trust
in him as dying and buried, but ris
ing again for our justification. “There
fore we were buried with him by
baptism into death; that like ns
Christ was raised from the dead by
the glory of the Father, so we also
might walk in newness of life,’’
(Rom. 6:4).
Thus has Jesus “glorified baptism.”
An ordinance so honored by our
Lord should not be lightly esteemed
by his deciples. In the light of his
holy example and divine teaching
every >child of God should reverently
accept baptism as a precious privi
lege., He honors us in permitting us
to honor him before men in this
sacred symbol. Dear reader, have
you followed your Lord in this ordi
nance so honored by him ?
"CHRISTIAN SCIENCE."
•The guinea-pig is not a pig, nor is
it from Guinea. So Christian sci
ence is not Christian, for it denies
the only Christ, who came into the
world to save sinners, and it is not
in any sense scientific. It denies all
entities. It rejects the evidence of
all the senses. It declares that there
is no such thing as a tree, for exam
ple ; but that there is an impression
on the brain that the tree is. lam
told that what I feel when I put my
hand on a tree, or a chair or table is
no evidence of the existence of these
things, but, impressions only of my
own mind. A lady who had em
braced the errors of Christian sci
ence, falsely so called, said to her
Baptist pastor, “Did you hear that I
lost my watch and chain? The
thief stole them.” His reply was;
“It is only in your imagination, you
had no,watch. You had no chain.
What you took for a watch and
chain was only an impression on your
brain. And if you will only assure
yourself that you really have your
watch and chain, it will be so.”
This was only an application to
the case, of her own foolish, alleged
faith. Yet it was an offense to her.
If the existence of entities can be
successfully denied, then can also be
denied the fact of sin. And if there
is no sin, there is of course no Sa
vior. For it is only from our sins
that Jesus came to save us. It is
just here that the demand comes in
for Christian science. The fact of
sin must be denied, that there may
come the consequent denial of the
Savior. And yet the existence—
the life and work of the Son of God
is too deeply imbedded in the popu
lar faith, for him to .be entirely ig
nored. Hence he is the great heal
er. His services of merciful healing
are declared to be the chief end of
his life. As in the olden time, thou
sands wore found ready to use the
Lord Jesus as a free physician, neg
lecting entirely the great work of
redemption he came to accomplish,
so now there are throngs ready to
accept “this Jesus” as a great healer,
and the more especially, if they may
declare themselves as healers also,
and be allowed to charge for the
healing. It has sometimes seemed
to the writer that this fad, this sin
gular fad, is allowed in this last por
tion of the l'Jth century, to illustrate
the inanity and gullibility of the
children of men. But already the
delusion seems to be in its decad
ence.
MERCER COMMENCEMENT.
Some things never grow old or
stale. This is strangely true of our
average commencement occasions.
Attend the exercises of one of these
and you get a fair sample of what
they have been for many years in
the past, and of what they are likely
to be for some time to come. The
perennial freshness retained by
speeches so often repeated is a mat
ter of constant surprise. Perhaps
the interest lies not mainly in the
speeches, however, exalted in thought
or style. The young men them
selves regardless in some measure of
the character of their speeches, are
the objects of our chief concern. We
listen and are thrilled, but it is not
so much by the thoughts contained
in the words spoken, as by our own
thoughts of the possibilities, the pros
pects, the promise of the life of him
who stands before us in the vigor
and glory of his Youth.
This interest in young men will
never fail or grow dull so long as re
mains before an unaccomplished any
lofty ideal, any benevolent purpose.
Sacred is the trust that is commit
ted to Mercer in the developing .of
these bright buds of promise. Intense
is the concern with which we look
when opportunity>ffers to see any
indications of what the flowers are
to be. Many turn with confidence
to this commencement to find such
unfolding as will bring new cheer
and new courage. While some ex
pectations may fall short, and in
some affairs of the college as in all
things earthly, some human frailties
may appear, there will be much to
stimulate hope and encourage earnest
endeavor for the future.
The exercises wore opened on
Friday night by
THE ANNUAL CHAMPION DEBATE
between the two Literary Societies.
The question for discussion was:
“Resolved that there should be a free
and unlimited coinage of silver’” and
a close victory was won by the Neg
ativs side. The speakers of the Phi
Delta Society representing the af
firmative were S. G. Orr, of Coweta
county, E. J. Smith, of Hancock
county and B. F. Hill, of Monroe
county. The negative speakers
from the Ciceronian Society were J.
B. Hicks, of Johnson county, G. W.
THE CHRISTIAN INPEX: THURSDAY, JUNE 9. 1892

abler committee of judges could
hot have been found than
Washington Dessau, D. D, Abbott
and C. B. Willingham, a prominent
lawyer, 4 prominent educator, a prom
inent business man. The debate was
of a high order. The speeches were
all good. The efforts of J. B. Hickg,
E. J. Smith and B. F. Hill were
quite highly commended by many.
ON SATURDAY NIGHT CAME THE
FBESHMAN EXHIBITION.
This exercise consisted of declama
tions by fourteen selected members
of the class. This is the second year
the Freshmen have been allowed to
appear, and their speeches were
quite creditable.
The medal for excellence in de
clamation in the Freshman class is
offered through the generosity of J.
W. Cabaniss, Esq., of Macon.
SUNDAY SERVICES.
The preacher of the commence
ment sermon this year was Rev. S-
A. Goodwin, D. D., recently called
from Richmond, Va., to be a pastor at
Savannah. An excellent congrega
tion crowded the college chapel and
many are the evidences that the ser
mon was heartily enjoyed. From
Matt. 20 : 25-28 was chosen the sub
ject—“ Service, the True Ideal of
Life.” With artistic skill did the
pr.eacher fashion a brilliant setting
for this rare gem of the gospel.
On Sunday night the sermon be
fore the
MCRCER MISSIONARY SOCIETY
was preached by Rev. J. D. Chap
man, of Milledgeville, Ga., at the
First Baptist church.. Perhaps no
Pastor in Georgia has done more
faithful or efficient work, or accom
plished better results among his peo
ple in the missionary cause. For
this reason no man was better fitted
to speak to the young men on this
occasion. The sermon was like the
man, full of zeal and unction, charac
terized by that devotion to Gospel
truth and spirit, that make impress
upon the heart and find expussion in
the lives of men. It was heard with
pleasure by the large congregation
and w’ill bring forth fruit in the days
to come.
A further report of the commence
ment will appear next week, which
will contain several matters of spec
ial interest.
SOME SUGGESTIONS TO THB COL
LEGE GRADUATE.
This is the Annual return of Col
lege Commencements and the gradu
ate -is quite abundant and evidently
he feels his importance as never be
fore, and perhaps never will again.
We desire to make a few’,simple, com
monplace suggestions to the College
graduate.
Your speech or essay was not the
first of its kind that has ever been
heard in the earth. The like of it has
been very common for serval gen
erations,and the freshness and charm
of a a graduate’s speech departed, to an
alarming extent before you arrived.
So doubtless, it impressed you tar
more than it did any w’ho heard it,
and you need not enter into the night
of dispair if compliments come not
to you, for the capacity of the listen
ers to such speeches has been greatly
overtaxed, to devise compliments
long before they heard yours in 1892.
Your education is not complete,
barely begun, and it will require con
siderable attention to it in the years
to come to keep it up to its present
standard. If you' shall neglect to
pursue your studies and keep abreast
of the times you will soon find your
self a graduate without any educa
tion, to speak of.
You may know ajgreat deal but you
do not know it all, and some other
people know as much as ybu do, and
some of them far more. And you will
soon find this out when you come in
contao with thinking,reading people.
Hence a college graduate has great
need to bejnodest less he be rebuked
for ignorance by some who never saw
a college, and such a rebuke will fill
the soul of the college graduate with
great confusion.
It becomes a college graduate to
give special attention to the details
and niceties of education. Syntax
should not be carelessly handled
with pen and tongue. It sounds
very badly to hear from the lips of a
college graduate sentences disjoined
with a plural noun hitched to a sing
ular verb. And when he says: “Be
tween you and I”, it is too much! It
is a shame on his Alma Mater. Then
correct pronunciation is a benedic
tion on the head of a graduate. It is
no sign of a good college to meet its
full graduate and hear him (or her)
who has a smattering of Latin, Greek,
French, German and some idea of
mathematics and the sciences,ex press
himself in bad, English.
The college graduate has need to
work. People will care little for his
“sheepskin”-they will estimate him
according his to capacity for efficient
work. Many college graduates, yea,
first honor men have been buried in
obscurity, and oblivion because they
depended on their graduation. Col
lege honors are very pice and every
student should seek them, but they
often prove a snare to those who
wear them. Let the college graduate
realize that he must go forth and do
something. It is a man’s work that
makes him, and hence every college
graduate’s motto should be: ‘Work,
Work, Work.” And graduation only
is worth attaining when it helps
the graduate in his lifework and adds
to his efficiency as a worker. For on
ly as such can he be a credit to his
college, to his home, to his country,
to his church, to his God and Savior-
The saddest sight among intelli
gent people is the college graduate
who is a failure! Alas! alas! Such
cases do sometimes come along and
they are a reproach to education, to
humanity and to our civilization.
Then we say to our graduate don’t
be a failure-far better die than fail.
Be wise, be discreet, be loyal to
truth, be true to friends and country
and be faithful to God and then
work in your God-given field and
failure is imopossible. But in seeking
success, seek .it only in the way of
right and honor, for failure with all
its odium is ten thousand times to
be preferred to dishonoable success.
There is a disposition in the col
lege graduate now and then, fresh
from the classic shades of his Alma
Mater to Jcultivate a spirit of superi
ority towards those who never at
tended college. But the graduate
should early learn to appreciate
worth, merit and efficiency wherever
be may find them. And it is wed for
him to remember that many efficient
workers are found in all callings who
were never college students, and the
business of the world to a very large
extent is carried on by others than
college graduates. Hence the college
garduate should esteem highly the
man who has risen above and in spite
of his disadvantages, and made life a
success. For with the superior ad
vantages of the college graduate
he might have doubtless gone to
heights of success that would make
the head of the graduate grow’ dizzy.
And in many cases the graduate
will find himself heavily pressed to
keep pace with lots of earnest men
who never shared in the college pri
vileges of the graduate.
Sister Mary I. Robertson, of Par
ish, Fla., writes us that the cause of
Christ among the Baptist here is en
couraging. There are two new houses
of worship which have just been fin
ished on the Manatee river. One at
Palmetto aud one on the opposite
side, at Braidentown, which will be
dedicated one on the 4th, and the
other on the sth, Sunday of this
month. Brother Chaudoin, Sec’y of
our State Board and others will be
present. Our Pastor, Elder R. IL
Whitehead is an able and consecrat
ed minister, doing a good work. Our
Missionary, Eider P. O. Miller, is la
boring faithfully in the distant and
long neglected parts and is accom
plishing much good.
While we are praying that the
Lord of the harvest shall send more
laborers into the harvest, it is just as
well to add a petition- that he will
open the hearts of his people to ade
quately support those already in the
field. It is sheer hypocracy to prav
for more ministers while neglecting
to support those the Master has al
ready given us, unless one be moved
as was one good brother we wot of,
who said if the supply was greater
the price would be cheaper !
The Western Recorder knows of
a good brother who proposes to
give 120,000 as a special contribu
tion towards the <250,000 centennial
mission fund. He wishes his name
kept from the public. His donation
is for special work by the Foreign
Board.
Rev. W. C. Luther, pastor of the
church at Corsicana, Texas, has just

Rev. T. S. Potts, of Dallas, did the

isfaction. The prospect ahead of
thia church is quite flattering.
The Index has contributors in
every Southern State. Our readers
will note these communications as a
new feature of the paper. Our pur
pose is .to make the Index the equal

Rev. J. C. Hiden, the able and be
loved pastor of the Church at Eufau
la, Ala., has been unanimously called
to the pastorate of Grove Avenue
Baptist Church, Richmond, Va., and
has the call under consideration.
Texas seems to be rather hard up
on Methodist Preachers. The Texas
Baptist and Herald says that 22
Methodist preachers were baptized in
the Baptist Churches during the last
year. Our Methodist brethren seem
to be falling in line with us in some
respects.
FATHERHOOD OF GOD.
BY J. G. EVALS, D. D.
Much is being said in late years
about the universal fatherhood of
God, and the universal brotherhood
of man. A recognition of these
faiths, it is claimed,, is essential to a
progressive Christianity, and a true
conception of the great doctrines of
the Gospel. If the claim is just it is
because the Bible teaches that these
relations exist, and not because they
have been determined by a mere
gush of sentiment.
An appeal to Scripture and reason
will clearly prove that this doctriue of
“a universal fatherhood,” cannot be
true in any sense which is assumed
to explain the great doctrines of
grace. 1. If tfie true Father is ap
plied to God from the human analogy
of being the author or begetter of
being, then He is the father of the
creatures of His power, whether
animate or inanimate, rational or
irriational. An analogy so vague and
imperfect, certainly can explain no
doctrine of divine grace. 2. If the
term be applied to Him from analogy
to the human father as begetter of
personal bejngs, and . that the love
He has for these is therefore pater
nal, then He is father of angels,
men, and devils, and has for them
all the love of a father. The relation
is a natural one, and no sin or un
worthiness can destroy it, or effect
a forfeiture of His love; hence he is
father of wicked man and devils and
entertains for these Ilis children an
inalienable love. The Scriptures
teach no such doctrine. 3. If the
atonment originates in this universal
fatherhood of God, it ought to in
clude all the children and be made
for devils as well as. men. Those
who stress most the universal father
hood of God escape the dilemma by
denying the existence of personal
devils. 4. If the atonement origi
nates in the paternal love of the
universal Father, and is made for
all men but not devils, then it may
be asked, why the paternal love
which provides a Savior for all does
not save all; or, will it be claimed
that the wicked in Hell will still be
His children and blessed by His
love ? 5. There is a fatherhood of
God, abundantly’ revealed in the
Scriptures, and inseparably connect
ed with the plan of redemption. But
this fatherhood is not natural but
gracious; it does not prove aton
ment, but is itself the result of aton
ment ; it is not general but limited to
the elect of God. This fatherhood
illustrates many doctrines of Divine
grace.
This sentimental idea of a univer
sal fatherhood of God originates in
the assumption that His love is
paternal. This is not true. God’s
love is an essential attribute inherent
in His nature, and is that in Him
which inclines Him to communicate
His own blessedness to His sentient
creatures. In its manifestations it is
wholly independent of external
causes. External relations result
from it, but it is never ceased by
these. As an attribute of God it ex
isted in infinite fullness before any
creature had being. It can never
like justice be put under bonds, but
is free and spontaneousln its outflow.
Selecting its own objects, and the
measure of blessing it bestows. The
reason of the selection can never be
known, since it exists wholly in God,
who has never revealed it. “He
hath mercy on whom He will have
mercy etc.” Rom. 9:18. The father
hood of God springs out of this love,
and is a term simply descriptive of
the highest manifestation of which it
is capable. It lifts to the plane of
the godhead to which no angle will
ever be exalted. “Behold what
manner of love the Father hath be
stowed on us that we should be call
ed the sons of God.” 1 Jno. 8:1.
The relation of father and chil
dren, subsisting between God and
His people, results from God's intro
duction into His family, and adoption
as His children, of those, before con
demned sinners and children of the
Devil. The relation is not a natural
one. It is not some original relation
of Adam lost by the fall, and re
stored by relation ; but a new rela
tion to God the Father in Christ the
Son, and confercd solely by the
Divine grace, because of union with
tho Son.
It is a higher blessing than justi
fication, which, bad it pleased God,
would be complete without sonship,
justification effects a change of rela
tion to law; adoption, a change of re
lation to grace. The one has respect
to God’s justice, the other to God’s
love. The one establishes perfect
hamony with the Divine law; the
other introducers into the grdat heart
of God and secures all which in
finite love can suggest or infinite
power bestow.
The fatherhood, resulting from
adoption, is the only one revealed in
the Gospel as the culminating out
flow of infinite love. There is some
thing said about the children of
wrath, the children of disobe
dience, the children of the
Devil, etc., but these have linked to
their fatherhood the inexorable curse
of death. God’s adopted children
alone hive the promise of conformity
to the eldest born, with whom they’
are joint heirs, hence, it is declar
ed of them that all things are theirs,
whether things present or things to
come, life, death, heaven, God eter
nity, all are theirs. Oh! for the
fatherhood resulting from adoption:
which says to the children, “He that
spared not Ilis own Son, but deliver
ed him up for you all, how shall He
not with him also freely give you all
things. Rom. 8:32.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure • Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed conditon of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you. have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed codition of the mu

THE OONVENHONIiNGERfi.
An article from Bro. W. E. Pen
to be found in another column has
some very plain things about the
Convention Singers, and calls on the
Index to tell what it knows atout
them.
The first public notice the editor
of the Index had of the matter was
contained in the Western Recorder
issued during the week the Conven
tion met, or the week before.
The paragraph simply made an
nouncement of the fact that Prof.
D. B. Towner and wife would lead
the singing at the Southern Baptist
Convention. The editor of the In
dex knew nothing of them, or of their
church relations, until a day or two
before the Convention met.
He was very much surprised to
learn that they were Northern Meth
odists. This fact, of itself, was noth
ing to their discredit, but, for the
life of us, we could not see the pro
priety of having them conduct the
singing of a Baptist Convention, es
pecially, of a Southern Baptist Con
vention.
There was lacking a fitnest
of things. It was like trying to sing
