given to us in terms with which we
are familiar.
Finally, the Bible speaks to us of
Clod as our Father, not only in tho
sense that lie is the author of our
b, ing, but that, in a special sense,
He is the Father of all them that be
li< \c. to whom lie gave the privi
lege of becoming the children of God.
In this sense “no man knoweth the
F'.ti: r save the Son and he to whom
the Son shall reveal him.”
These elements of knowledge con
cei ning God are given to ns in the
Bible. When expanded, to the full
extent of their meaning, they give to
us, in some good degree, a concep
tion of the Supreme Being. As Cre
ator, we discover in Him infinite
wisdom to contrive, and infinite pow
er to execute. As a sovereign, we
find Him establishing, over His in
telligent creatures, a moral govern
ment by a system of laws, whose
rectitude is insured by the perfec
tions of His own nature, and whose
obligations are binding upon us by
virtue of the plcntitude of His son- ,
ereignty and the supremacy of His I
will. And upon trial of them, we
find these laws, not arbitrary ; not
not dictated by autocratic selfishness;
but in the highest degree beneficent,
and conducive to the most exalted
well-being of the subject. Hence as
a lawgiver God is holy, just, and
good. As a Judge, and a Redeem
er, and as a Father, wo see how
‘•mercy and truth are met together ;
righteousness and peace have kissed
each other.”
We are, therefore, able to think of
God as infinite in Power, wisdom,
holiness, justice, goodness, truth,
love, and mercy. These are the at
tributes which make the nature and
character of God intelligible to us-
And this is so, because we have
these qualities in some small degree
developed in ourselves and we see
developed, sometimes, in those
around us. Man was a fair, though
miniature likeness of His Creator.
And though this likeness has been
greatly marred and defaced by sin,
yet its traces may still be seen lin
gering, here and there, amidst the
deformities of a fallen nature. And
when the light of divine truth falls
upon that nature, these lines of like
ness reappear, so that the man, “be
holding as in a glass the glory of the
Lord, is changed into the same im
age from glory to glory as by the
Spirit of tho Lord.” Hence it
comes to pass that, the relation of
God in the Bible finds, in the heart
of the believer, a responsive echo
•w hich confirms the truth, —and this
is dope in the light of his own con
cious experience. Hence tho Chris
tian can say “I know whom I have
believed.” S. G. Hillyek.

ASKED AND ANSWERED.
C. E IV. DOBBS, D. D,
Bro. J. T. S. Pqrks enters a pro
test against an answer recently giv
en in this department of the Index.
We heartily agree with our honored
brother in the main, and certainly
nothing was further from our
thought than the idea that “the
church can forgive sins,” in the
higher sense of forgiveness. But
the very passage our dear brother
partly quotes shows there is a lower
sense in which the church must
“forgive” tho penitent offender.
Bro. Parks says:
“Tliis corrective discipline is ar
gued by the Apostle in 2nd Cor. 2 :6,
in these words : ‘Sufficient to such
a man is the punishment which was
inflicted of many.’ ”
The very next verse reads: “So
that contrariwise ye should rather
forgive him and comfort.” This
was addressed to the church to the
same body instructed in the first
epistle “to deliver such an one unto
Satan for the destruction of the
flesh, that the spirit may lie saved in
the day of the Lord Jesusto put
away from among themselves that
wicked person. 1 Cor. 5:13. In
the second epistle the apostle bids
the church to “forgive”—that is res
tore—the now penitent man. He
adds the suggestive words; “To
whom ye forgive anything I forgive
also; for what 1 also have forgiven,
if 1 have forgiven anything, for your
sakes 1 forgive it in the person of
C hrist.” In this case the offence
was not private, but the sin was one
«■; Hing for and receiving church ex
clusion.
A good sister is in some perplexi
ty. .She is a member of a Sunday
sdiool class taught by a brother
higidy esteemed, but finds herself
compelled to dissent from some of
his teaching. She writes:
Some few weeks ago we were
speaking of Peter, lie said ho never
was converted till after the day of
Pentecost, and gave as proof the 32d
verse of the 22nd Luke, I would like
to hear from you on the subject.
Then what is the difference between
regeneration and conversion? Os
course I know the meaning of the
words, but wherein do they differ.
If one is regenerated is he not also
converted? You may think it strange
I write to you about these things in
stead of going to Dr. I can only
say I like your way of explaining
the Bible. n. w.
1. Luke 22 ;32 reads: “When
thou art converted, strengthen thy
brethren.” Our Lord had just warn
ed Peter against Satan’s temptation,
and in reply to the apostle’s served
declaration that he was ready to die
with him, his fearful fall is predict
ed.
There is nothing here to prove
that Peter was not then a true child
of God. The word “converted” is
literally rendered in the Revised
Version “hast turned again.” It im
plies nothing more than his recovery
from bis grievous sin in denying his
Lord. Whenever one turns from
sin he is “converted,” whether it be
the sinner or the Christian. The
word is translated correctly in Acts
9:35; 11 :21; 14 :15; 15:19; 26:
18 ; 1. Tlies. 1:9; 1 Pct. 2 :25.
2. The two words regeneration
and conversion are used synonymous
in ordinary speech, though theolo
gians distinguish between them.
They regard “regeneration” as the
act of God, and “conversion” as the
act of man—the latter tho result of
the former. In the New Testament
we find “regeneration” used only
once of tho spiritual birth. Tit. 3 :5.
The verb “born again” from the same
original root is used to describe what
we commonly call regeneration. The
sacred writers generally employ
other terms to describe the new birth
The usual words arc “believe” and
“turn”. Every soul that believes in
the Lord Jesus Christ and turns
from sin to God is regenerated and
converted.
How many denominations are
there in this country. l. s. t.
Rev. Dr. 11. K. Carroll, who has
charge of the religions statistics con
nected with the United States cen
sus, says there are as many as 140,
though some that he mentions can
scarcely be called “Christian.” He
reports 15 different varieties of
Methodisis, 14 of Baptists, and 12 of
Presbyterians. Probably nineteen
twentieths of church members are
found in the main bodies of the
Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians,
Congregationahsts, Episcopalians
Disciples, Lutherans, and Catho
lics.
In a recent issue of the Cosmopoli
tan it was stated that the English
language has more words than any
other. Will you tell me if this is
true, and also how many words are
in the different languages?
M. 1.. H.
Excuse us, please. We are not
linguist enough for so great a task.
Earth has languages many; about
three thousand of them, it is said,
though we do not know who made
tho count. There is at hand no
source of information as to the vo
cabulary of these different tongues
of men, not even of the leading lan
guages of civilization. The English
has become very largely a composite
language. All is grist that comes
to its mill, and almost any word
from anywhere finds easy admission
and naturalization. Thousands of
words are found in English diction
aries that are “English words” only
because so found. It is said that
there arc 250,000 words in our lan
guage, but we have never counted
them them therefore cannot certify
to the statement. It may be added
that the English is rapidly becoming
a universal language, and it is prob
ably now better known than any
tongue of civilization.

‘‘DANGER SIGNALS."
In your most excellent paper of
Aug. 25 under head of “Danger Sig
nals,” you speak at length of labor
troubles suppressed by armed force,
and concluded by giving the cause
thus:- “Most of these troubles, and
the danger that threatens our liber
ties is to be found mainly in Class
Legislation.” “Laws made to foster
and protect industries while they are
infants, cause them to grow into
mighty giants that grind and op
press those in their power until sub
mission is no longer tolerable. The
multitude of toilers organize and de
mand relief and if not granted work
ceases violence follows and then the
protection of an armed force is call
ed for and furnished by the govern
ment and the worker is forced to
submit under the presence of bullets
and bayonets. A standing army,
the menace to liberty is in sight”
Will you permit a man who has been
a Baptist for 45 years, and a Demo
crat all his life to give the people’s
side of this subject?
For 30 years past corporations,
nursed by the government and aid
ed by protective tariffs to make
enormous profits, and unrestrained
in issuing and selling watered stock,
to hide and conceal their vast profits
of “limited” liability, by which once
in a while the sharks can squeeze
out the small stockholders of
ten given in a monopoly, for a
generation or more by reason of pat
ent grants, which has long since
served its “day of usefulness” and
should be abolished, until at last
hundreds of these gigantic organiza
tions have come to control vast
amounts of wealth, and are using it
it to corrupt our government and
oppress the people.
Take the Carnegies. They em
ploy twenty thousand laborers. 100
thousand human beings are depen
dent upon them for their daily bread
and it is an absurdity, a monstrosity
in political economy to place such
organized combines of money on a
par with private industries and talk
about “vested rights,” and “protec
tion of property.”
Have their laborers no vested
rights? Shall those corporations,
the creatures of government, fatten
ed off of an impoverished nation,
hold the very bread of life in their
hands with unrestrained power to
give, or withhold from toiling thous
ands? These are the isssues. They
must be met and tho new political
economists must open their eyes to
new conditions and act, and act
promptly or all will be lost. Vested
rights! The Homestead works are
opened. They invite in laborers
with promise of work, at fair wages.
The men to the number of 4 thous
and, equal to twenty thousand men
women and children move in, build
homes, improve streets, build
churches, school houses and places of
amusement. They work for wages,
and while they may save a few hun
dred dollars their employes save
fifty millions in twenty-five years.
Finally a dull time comes or prices
are put down to secure big contracts
or crush out small competition. And
instead of drawing on their big bank
account to tide them over, they re
duce wages, men revolt, protest in
vain. They are told to go and they
must submit or starve, or go and
learn a new trade. For capital is
combining and men thus turned out
of one mill may seek employment in
vain. Does government owe no
protection to its people? Is not La
bor as much entitled to protection
under>our laws as Capital? If not,
why not?
What means the vast number of
tramps in our land? Over 400 thou
sand. No man is a tramp of choice.
What means the vast combines and
trusts, on the one hand, and labor
organizations on the other?
What means the vast strikes in
our nation calling out over twenty
thousand troups to suppress?
We dare not shut our eyes to the
truth! It is war, open war, between
capital and labor. The government
cannot suppress it by force without
establishing an armed despotism. It
can only be stopped by w holesome
laws arbitrating, by the strong arm
of the government, tho differences
between capital and labor, and if
capital will not submit to such arbi
tration, and are unwilling to do
fairly by their laborers they should
not be permitted to do business in
this country.
Millions and scores of millions
cannot be accumulated by individual
effort in an ordinary life time. It
can only be done at all by govern
ment aid, and then at the expense of
the masses. Any and all laws mak
ing such vast accumulations possible
are wrong, and antagonistic to the
best interest of our people, and jeo
pardize the very existence of our
free Republican form of govern
ment.
Amid vast wealth in the hands
of the few, with the most abundant
harvest the country has ever known,
the best commercial and transporta
tion facilities to date, the great
masses of the people are poor, in
debt to the very verge of bankruptcy
mortgaged for unpayable sums; and
all the products of our hands are at
ruinously low prices. So that large
crops offer no hopes of relief. There
is a deep spirit of unrest and discon
tent, a wild summing up of causes,
and suggestions of relief, organiza
tions of captal, also of labor for pro
tection, a bitter feeling between
them, which every strike and sup.
pression deepens, and intensifies.
Have they the wisdom or sober
thought and good feeling to heal
these differences? No! Call it pa
ternalism if you will. But the case
demands the strong arm of govern
ment, not to crush the laborer, but
to see that all shall have equal rights
before the law, and that the laborers
shall not be crushed simply because
they are poor and powerless,but shall
have a fair division of joint earn
ings.
The Third Party is but another
form of labor organization and is
born of the same necessities, under
the strong instincts of self-preserva
tion.
These troubles constitute the issues
of the day, the dangers of the hour.
Will patriots, Christians and all lov
ers of liberty, peace and good gov
ernment awake to the situation, give
us the needed reforms and restore
unto us the government of our
fathers, “equal rights to all, special
privileges to none.”

BAPTISM AND REMISSION.
Can baptism procure remission of
sins ? No! Is baptism essential
to remission, or to salvation ? No !
But salvation is essential to baptism;
for tho saved only can properly be
baptized.
It would be quite wrong for us to
say that Peter, in Acts 2 ;38, intends
to have us understand that baptism
is the means, by which we obtain
forgiveness ; or that baptism is in
order to or necessary for obtaining
forgiveness. },♦ means that bap
tism is a Christian duty to be per
formed and is a mere “figure” or
symbol of sins washed away and,
consequently, of salvation. (See 1
Petei 3 :31.) So, in Romans 6:5
Paul calls baptism a “likeness” of
Christ’s death and resurrection.
Forgiveness and salvation can nev
er, indeed, be obtained by, a mer
form, rite or ceremony, such as bap
tism is. It can be obtained through
repentance and faith only; and
these always go together. All
through the Bible, over and over
again, it is said that salvation by for
giveness comes to us through or by
means of faith. “The just shall live
by faith.” (Gal. 3:11.) “Believe
on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou
shalt be saved.” (Read Acts 3 :19 ;
8 :22 ‘ 10 : 43; 11 :18; Rom, 3 :26.)
When Peter was preaching to the
household of Cornelius, he said
(Acts 10 43) “To him (Jesus) give
all the prophets witness, that through
his name (through him,) whosoever
belieth on him shall receive remis
sion of sins,—or frogiveness. (See
also Rom. 3:25.) We are never
told that baptism can save us ; only
as a figure or symbol, can .it rep
resent sins washed away and salva
tion. It was this very thing that
Paul contended about at Antioch, so
earnestly, (Gal. 2 .50 when some
Jews trom Jerusalem said to the
Gentile converts, “Except ye be cir
cumcised, after the manner of Moses,
ye cannot be saved.” He knew that
salvation is due to no mere rite, such
as circumcision or baptism ; but to
faith, as you can read plainly, in Gal
atians 2:16. Baptism and circum
cision are works or deeds ; and we
are not saved by works or deeds ;
but “by grace, through faith.”
(Gal. 2:8, 9; 1 Tim. 2:9 ; Titus
8 :5.)
Remember, now, that Christ died
and made atonement for sin, that
God might forgive and save all who
repent and believe in Jesus ; that is>
have faith in him. Because Christ
died, God can bo just and yet be the
justificr of the ungodly (Rom. 3 :26)
forgiving, and acquitting them of
guilt, because of the imputation of
Christ’s righteousness to them. (See
Rom. 3 :28 ; 5 :9.) Baptism, to
which Christ has commanded all be
lievers to submit, is a public sign or
symbol that the person has repented
of sin and professes to have faith in
Jesus and intends to be his follower,
in this life. Baptism, is therefore,
merely a sign or symbol, that his
soul is regenerated and that his sins
are washed away, or forgiven hy the
Lord.
Baptism cannot possibly regener
ate the soul, or procure forgiveness*
It is not essential to salvation. Cor
nelius believed and was regenerated
and forgiven, in Caesarea, before
he was baptized. The penitent thief
was saved without being baptized,
because he had faith in Jesus and
begged for mercy and salvation. We
have been teaching you these truths
for 25 or 30 years, as thousands can
testify, and we have written this so
plainly for you, because a few words
appeared in the Advanced Quarter
ly page 8, which seem to teach that
baptism procures forgiveness. And
yet in a dozen places in the Advanc
ed Quarterly for 1892, you will find
it stated most plainly that salvation
and forgiveness always come by
faith and never by baptism or any
rite or deed whatever. It would be
impossible for us knowingly to teach
you anything so unscriptural as re
generation by baptism ; or that bap
tism procures, or is in order to, the
forgiveness of sin. Any one read
ing carefully the exposition of Acts
2:38, in the Advanced Quarterly can
see, plainly, that we meant to teach
that remission comes through re
pentance, and that baptism is a sign
or token of faith and a public pro.
session of it. But, still the ex
pression, “in order that your sins
may be forgiven,” though used as
the meaning of “unto the remission
of sins,” and referring to repentance
alone, as is plainly shown by the
sentence following, was an unfortu
nate and loose expression. And, as
it gives the wrong impression of my
meaning, lam sorry I used it. Ido
not believe the passage contains
anything in support of “Campbell
ism,” and I desire to say so in the
plainest terms. S. Boykin.
ON A HIGHER PLANE !
“Whether ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever
ye do, do all to tho glory of God,” 1 Cor. 10:
31-32.
Those who claim to attain perfec
tion place the standard too low, or
fail to read their own imperfections
aright, or both. I write of a higher
standard, not as attained or attaina
ble, but as a mark towards which
we are to press. The higher the
aim, other things being equal, the
more hope of some humble approxi
mation to it.
The forms of salvation among us,
are often mere forms. We say
How are you ? often without much
concern about it; Good bye, without
especially meaning, God be with
you. Not so, the Savior. He meant
a benediction when He saluted His
friends or hade them adieu. “Peace
I leave with you, ray peace I give
unto you : not as the world giveth
give I unto you.” John, 14 :27.
The forms of saying grace, at our
tables, are in danger of dwindling in
to mere forms. “Accept our thanks,
Almighty Parent, for a continuation
of thy temporal mercies ; and sanc
tify our strength to thy service, for
Christ’s sake,” may lie said without
thankfulness, or filial gratitude, or
desire for service, or indeed for
Christ’s sake. There is too much
mechanical prayer ; too much dese
cration of prayer, at political meet
ings, literary festivals, and the like.
It is a solemn thing to address Heav
en in prayer. However, some men
can “pray everywhere ;” and, per
haps this is to be thought of rather
than the danger of praying at im
proper circumstances.
The ultimatum of everything,
ought to be the glory of God.
Whether we eat or drink, it ought
not to be merely for the gratification,
but to secure and maintain strength
for service. Everything ought to be
done with reference to our “being’s
end and aim.”
Contributions to the cause of
Christ ought to be really such, not
merely and act of good will to the
church, or out of complaisance but
an act of worship. It is very appro
priate, for the minister to say, on
taking a collection, Let us worship
God, by contributing to the Lord’s
treasury. That were to invest in a
bank that never fails to pay back
principal and interest, as the whole
of one of Dean Swift’s Charity ser
mons is said to have been, “He that
hath pity on the poor lendeth to the
Lord.” “If you like the security
down with the dust!” And, what
is more, it is a tribute to divine
grace. E. B. Teague.
UNIFORM LAWS OF MARRIAGE.
The American Bar Associa
tion is endeavoring to secure uni
formity of laws on several impor
tant subjects, prominent among
which is marriage. The present di-
versity of State laws is productive of
much evil. It seems entirely feasi
ble to produce the passage of the
same laws in every State, and the
effort to do so will direct public at
tention to a grave abuse. The pres
ent looseness of divorce laws in some
of the States is a crying evil which
demands a speedy remedy. It is
said that under the present marriage
laws ia this country a man may be
married in one State and not in an
other ; that he may be married in a
foreign countiy and not in some
States in this country ; and a man
may have two legal wives residing in
different States, each a legal wife in
the State in which she lives and an
illegal one in which the other wife
lives. It is also said that a man
may be legally married in one State
and upon moving to another State
discover that his maraiage is illegal
in the State into which he has mov
ed.
These evils the American Bar As
sociation is trying to correct. We
earnestly recommend the law laid
down by Jesus Christ. It is the on
ly thing which can preserve the
sanctity of the marriage relation. A
temporary marriage is adulterous i
QUININE ANDPE-RU-NA.
TWO GREAT MALARIAL REMEDIES
COMPARED.
Nothing is more clearly demon
strated than that there are two dis
tinct forms of malaria, which,for the
want of better names, may be de
nominated acute and chronic. It has
been recently shown that the parasite
which causes malaria are different
in the acute and chronic forms. The
acute form is commonly known as fe
ver and ague, or chills and fever
This form of the disease is too well
known in malarious districts to need
description, and is generally curable
by large doses of quinine, though
this is not so favorable a remedy as
Pe-ru-na. The chronic form of ma
laria is by no means, so well under
stood, as the symptoms are hardly
ever exactly alike in any two cases
and it is rarely, if ever, curable by
taking quinine. Each case presents
slightly different symptoms, the mos
common ones being dull headache
sallow complexion, furred tongue,
bad taste, poor digestion, shivering
feelings, hot flashes, cold feet and
constant, tired feelings.
Quinine will not cure cases of
chronic malaria as above described.
Pe-ru-na is the only secific for such
cases. Pe-ru-na is sure to cure, leaves
the system with no derangement
and produces no drug habit to leave
off, which quinine will do.
Pe-ru-na is for sale at most drug
stores, accompanied with directions
for use; but those who are using it
should send for the Family Physician
