4 ©he ©hritian ex Published Every Thursday at Si'S S. Broad Street, Atlanta, Ga. FOR 1893. With this issue of the Index ends tl« work for 1892. It is for our readers to say whether we have been faithful and true, and accomplished any good. We are pleased to say, that the increased expenditure for new material, and for paid contribu tions to our columns, and constant effort to build up the paper has re sulted in increasing our circulation and improving the financial condi tion of the paper. In view of such results} we have outlined a more vigorous policy and a still better schedule for the coming year. We have received valuable help the past year from many good brethren, and sisters. We sincerely hope that many more will realize that they ad vance the Lord’s cause by helping to circulate the Index. In order to place the paper upon the highest literary plane, we have engaged con tributions from the following able writers, some of whom will appear in each issue during the year: Dr. J. L. Burrows, and Lansing Bur rows, D. D.:W. L. Kilpatrick, D. D.;and James 11. Kilpatrick. D. D.; Dr. A. J, Battle, Dr. G. A. Nunnally, Rev. A. B. Campbell, Bev. A. B. Vaughan, Jr.; Hon. A. D. Freeman, Rev. F. C. McConnell, Dr. C. E. W. Dobbs, Dr. E. W. Warren, Dr. G. Braxton Taylor, Hon. J. G. Mc- Call, Dr. Geo. R. ’McCall, Rev. G. L. Tumlin, Dr. Koht. 11. Harris, Rev. J. D.

Among the'people known as “Dis ciples,” sometimes called “Camphel lites,” after Alexander Campbell, the recognized founder of the organized movement, a cardinal article of faith is “baptism for remission of sins.” By this they mean that “baptism is, equally with faith and repentance and confes/ion, a condition of par don.” Some among them would state the doctrine with stronger emphasis than others, but all hold to it in some form. We have hoard prominent loaders present the subject in such a manner as to unmistakably teach that without baptism salvation was impossible, while others equally prominent have scarcely differed from Baptist views. For several years we have not kept up with their current literature and cannot speak with any degree of certainty as to the prevail!ing trend among them. But we notice a semi official report of a recent sermon by the Atlanta pastor of the Disciples, in which ho discussed the great com-’ mission,” which was declared to be “Christ's amnesty proclamation to a world in sin and rebellion.” The preacher said: “Matthew, Mark, Luke and John combine to tell us the terms of this great commissian. John tells us, in chapter xx, 31, that belief is neces sary to the obtaining of life through his name. Luke affirms the necessity of the suffering and death of Christ that repentance and remission of sins might be preached in His name among all nations—see chapter xxiv 45-47. Mark says, in chapter xvi, 16: ‘He that believeth and is bap tized shall be saved,’ and Matthew teaches, in chapter xxviii, 19: “Go teach all nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.’ Combining these four evangelists, wo see that the disciples were to teach the gospel; men were expected to hoar, believe, repent and God promised the forgiveness or re mission of their sins. As it was then, so It is now. The plan is the same, the conditions are the same, and the blessing is the same.” b rom the foregoing we must con clude that the Atlanta pastor be lieves the unbaptized believer is an unsaved soul, since the blessing somes only upon the fulfillment of ill the conditions. We will not quarrel with the preacher about his unscriptural or der—“believe, repent and be bap tized”—inasmuch as we know he uses the terms “believe” and “re pent” in somewhat different senses from those in which Baptists use them. Still we cannot help remark ing that in our opinion it is better to keep to the order in which scripture invariably presents them. See Mark 1: 14, 15; Acts 20, 21; Heb. 6: 1. Nor will we insist upon the fact that the disputed authenticity of Mark 16: 15, should at least make one informed on the question hesi tate to quote that passage as a proof text. Our purpose is to call atten tion to some other Disciple deliver ances on the main question. The Apostolic Guide of Louisville, under date of Dec. 2, editorially discourses of “experienced facts”—the editor ial being called forth by the follow ing utterance of the English corres pondent of the Christian Evange list : “The facts and phenomina of the spiritual world, the testimony of our religious consciousness to the exper ience of God’s grace, are as diyine as Acts 2 : 38 and Mark 16 : 16, and I want our brethren to consider, if it is possible for some of them to look away from the letter of the law long enough for them to see anything else, that no abstract inter pretation of these scriptures can stand for one moment if it is in pal pable contradiction to facts and ex perience in the hearts and lives of men.” The editor says some very just things about setting ones conscious ness over against the testimony of scripture and adds: “We are in the realm of spiritual law under the Christian economy and adhere to that special phrase of Christian law that relates to the as surance of forgiveness. How docs assurance of forgiveness, which pro ceeds from God and in no way takes place in the soul, come? Not by the testimony of the law written upon the heart from the foundation of the world, but from the law which went forth from Zion and from Jerusalem after the resurrection of Jesus.” This is further interpreted to mean “by submission to burial in baptism, preceded by faith in Christ and repentance for sin.” Thus : “It is the testimony of thousands of honest people that they never found, and never could find the as surance that they were forgiven till they, like Saul of Tarsus, arose and calling upon the name of the Lord were baptized, washing away their sins.” The conclusion reached by the editor is that the only satisfactory assurance of forgiveness is that fur nished by his interpretation of the scriptures relating to remission m baptism—that is only the baptized have the scriptural assurance of par don. * « « But the Guido editor was not fully satisfied with his effort. In his next issue he has another word for his English brother. That brothar, writ ing of the proper motives to obedi ence, had said : “Too much cannot bo said in ur gency of baptism as an act of obedi ence to the authority of Jesus Christ As a command of God through the, commission of his Son, it is invested with the sublimity of all authority in heaven and in earth cannot bo neg lected with impunitywhen it is known to be a duty. Christ commanded bap tism and submitted to it himself, and this two-fold basis is the highest ground on which the obligation can be placed.” This sounds as if it camo from the heart and pen of a Baptist, and the editor dearly recognizes the force of the paragraph. He says : “Here then are set forth the two sole motives to obedience in bap tism, viz., the example of Christ and the authority of Christ. Surely this should be enough.” We think so, too. Certainly, un der the economy of grace, these mo tives are sufficient to constrain every soul that sincerely reverences and loves the Saviour. But the Guide editor proceeds to argue that, in ad dition to these exalted motives, we should appeal to men's fears and hope of reward. Hear him : “True, the love of authority and the love of Christ’s perfect life and person should lead to obedience. But this being left out in thousands of cases, the resort to the fear of condemnation is the exclusive mo tive at work in the soul to bring it to submit to the act of baptism III” We cannot help marking this de liverance with the exclamation point! Surdy/lbe editor did not think how his sentence would look when it should confront the reader in cold type. Baptists would unanimously say that the soul that was moved to baptism through the “fear of con- THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY DECEMBER 22, 1892. dem nation” as the “exclusive mo tive,” was a soul yet in the bonds of iniquity—a stranger to saving grace —and therefore a wholly unfit can didate for the holy rite. lie who cannot be moved to obedience by love needs to betaught more perfectly the first principles of contrition, repen tanceo and faith. He needs to be born again. * * • Turning to another page of the Guide we find a very appreciative notice of Mr. B. B. Tyler’s address on the union of Baptist bodies, de livered last May at the Baptist Con gress in Philadelphia. The notice is from the pen of Mr. Robt T. Matth ews. Both Mr. Tyler and Mr. Matthews are disciple min isters, and are gentlemen whom we personally know and highly esteem. The address is spoken of very kindly, and Mr- Matthews takes occason to say some quite bold things. For example: “We have a number of times cri ticized the Baptist deliverances on the Apostolic and Catholic doctrine ‘one baptism for the remission of sins.” Often have we heard our Baptist brethren in the pulpit so in terpret Acts 2: 38, as, in our judg ment, to explain away any reality of of remission in baptism. ***** We are ready honestly to acknow ledge the rationalistic error of us Disciples on this Apostolic and Catholic doctrine. We have here had the advantage of our Baptist brethren all along in confessing and preaching that in baptism the peni tent believer receives a real remis sion of his sins, and so with this positive truth have distanced them in expressing and pleading for the unity of the Spirit.” Now, we do wish that our brother had stopped long enough to explain what he meant by “real remission of sins in baptism.” Did he mean ac tual remission ? Did he (mean that sins are actually, or only declarative ly, washed away in baptism? But hear further: “We have encumbered our plea with the unscriptural negation that that the penitent believer has no Scripture promise nor personal ex perience whatever of the remission ot sins until he is baptized.” But if remission is scripturally on ly through baptism, why call the “negat ion” unscriptural? Surely the positive necessarily implies the nega tive. If there are Scripture promi ses of remission prior to baptism, then it cannot be said logically that the scripture assurance of remission is obtained in baptism. Our brother follows the foregoing with a remark able paragraph, which he emphasizes with all the force of continuous italics: “Both Baptistsand Disciples,there fore, have a lesson to learn as regards Christian union. i\s long as Bap tists generally teach that in baptism there is for the penitent believer no reality of the remission of sins, Christendom will not hear them. As long as we disciples teaoh that the penitent believer has no Scripture promise nor personal experience whatever of the remission of sins before his baptism, Christendom will not hear us.” 2MI of which being interpreted i s a practical surrender of the main question at issue between the two denominations. Baptist have sought to know the mind of the Spirit con cerning this matter, and belive that the sight of God the penitent soul is mistified by faith in the Lord Jesus Chirst. In believing that some is ac cepted of God and enters into the possession of eternal life. We furth er belive that this believing and jus tified soul is to confess his Lord in baptsini “unto the remission of sin.” By that wo mean that baptism is the formal declaration before monos t hat justifying faith,in the exercise, of which ho has already received God’s pardon. In baptism ho washes away his sins, just as in eating the bread and drinking the wino ho oats the body and drinks the blood of Christ not really, but symbolically. “The pastor of a Philadephia Pre sbyterian church, finding that his theological views have so changed that ho is no longer in harmony with the Presbyterian standards, be came convinced that to hold his pas torate was a course reconcilable nei ther with his ordination Jvows nor with his consoience. Ho according ly offered his resignation in a letter that contained these manly and hon orable words. Sincerity being above all things vital to the preacher, I can conceive of nothing baser than for one to be lieve one system of truth in his heart and oxpound another with his lips. To be conseiously at variance with the tenets of one’s church and use one’s position, not to indoctrinate and fortify, but to undermine and destroy the congregation’s belief in those tenets, is a part to disingenous for a manly minister too play. Bet ter a thousand times sacrifice the most popular ministry, face poverty, rend asunder the most tender ties, pluck out one’s eye, than violate in the most sacred office on earth the integrity of one’s con.4cience.-Ex. How does the action of this pastor compare with that of Drs. Briggs Smith? MATTERS IN CUBA. On the third of the present month I left for Havana to inspect onr mis sion work in the Island of Cuba, and especially to make the last payment on the house of worship purchased by the Board. That business having been satis factorily accomplished and the last dollar of idebtedness paid, I turned my attention to the other interests. Our mission work is prospering. The first meeting I attended was that of the Neptuno Street Mission. This mission has been compelled to re move recently, and its present quar ters are neither so commodious nor inviting as it formerly possessed. Its importance demands better ones, but they are difficult to procure at pre sent. At this meeting three J were recived for baptism, and ten arose for prayer. This part of our work is in charge of Brother OJlolloran who with his excellent wife, conduct a school and a Sunday-school in con nection with it. In the Pilar district, where our work is in charge of Brother J. V • Cova, we have a good congregation which crowds the building every Sunday. There were about one hun dred in attendance at the weekly prayer meeting, and one was receiv ed for baptism. Here we have an ex cellent day school, and a Sunday school that rivals in numbers and interest that of Brother Diaz’s church Brother Cova and his wife and other teachers are doing noble work, and the interest here is growing. He has some excellent helpers in his church whose intelligence, influence, and consecration aid greatly in promoting the cause. Though better accommo dated than the Neptuno Street Mis sion, the place m too small for them, and they greatly need increased facilities for the work. Ti e misssicqa atLos Puentes and San Miguiel I did not visit, though I saw the pasters of both of these churches. At both places we have day schools, and Sunday-schools. Brother Bueno at San Miguiel re ports fifteen received for baptism. As he has no baptistry, and the authori ties do not allow any religious act to bo performed outside their places of worship,and as he is some dis tance from other stations, ho is ac customed to carry his converts to some one of them for baptism. At Brother Diaz's church there were on Thursday night not less than throe hundred at his prayer meeting. The meeting was a spirited one. Many wero the thanksgivings to God that that their beautiful house of worship was paid for in full and was now surely theirs. Many were the bles ings invoked upon their American brethren who had so generously helped them. ;kt this meeting five wero received for baptism, three were baptized, and many arose for prayer. Even since my last visit there has been decided improvement in this congregation, more in the manner and character of the men attending the meetings than in any other respect. Evidently Brother Diaz is reaching a more|influential das of the community than ever before That night I saw men standing up for prayer whose appearance indi cated that such men would be an ac quisition to and of our churches in Atlanta, Louisville,or Richmond. A n American lady,whoso long residence in Havana enabled her to know, told ine that some of the best families now attend the Baptist church, and on Sunday night I saw such evi dences of this as assured me that she was not mistaken. That our Baptist cause is taking a stronger hold in Havana is inaifest when looked at from every point of view. In another article 1 propose to give the facts on which this convic tion is based,and the causes that un derlie the increasing influence of our principles and our people. I. T. Tichenok.

Dear Index.—l have been disap pointed for two weeks. You have not put in an appearance at my office for two weeks now, and I am troub led. I have missed you. Your visits are like letters from home, for I have not yet got over the fpeling that Georgia is home. For your non appearance, I was holding that im personal but often very convenient impersonality, “Uncle Sam,” account able, but a modest, brief, printed note received last evening from the Index Office, asking for some “help’’ leads me to suspect that the blame rests not on an impersonal, but a very personal person. So here i g some help, and come again, renew your calls, for you are welcome. Let me now, at once extend to you an invitation more personal, to our Convention, which meets in Lake City, near the border, and immedi ately on the line of that popular Rail Road the building of which was an other strong ligament, binding us as States more closely, the G. S. and Florida, and the day is Thursday, January the sth. I run no risk in extending you this invitation, for I have known the hospitality of those people for several years. Come and test it. The last one of our Associations for this year, closed at Titusville some two weeks ago, the Indian River Association. It is a small body, of less than 350 members per haps, divided up into nine churches. Os these there are but three but are directly or indirectly aided by our State Board of missions, and when I came to this section first, but one of the nine churches was in existence. The Finance Committee’s report, at the recent session, showed the rais ing and expenditure of more than $2,000 in last Associational year, no*’ including salary and church home expenses. The largest part of that amount was contributed by the De. Land Church, where our University is located. I call to mind the follow ing sums contributed by that body with about 150 members. Minis terial Education, $100: Home Board, $151: State Missions, $134: Foreign’ Missions, (to support bro. Walue, in Japan,) $456: For Church building and Christmas offerings at least $100: and for Baptist Witness Benevolent fund $l5O. The DeLand Church is not large, nor rich except in good works. A considerable part too, of the amount reported, was for build ing houses in the Association. I hope a few of my friends in Georgia, to whom 1 have personally appealed, and not in vain, for help in this work, | will see from what I have writtent i that we have not sought help from | abroad, without trying to help our- I selves. I would be personally favor- | cd, if any who read this, would remit me, a seat, for our Titusville House, i. e. $1.15 cts. to get one, and I do think you would be making a good use of that amount. A few beloved friends in Georgia put in sections of three and six seats, Os our School and general work I can’t write now, nor can I do more than say of Lawson, Newman and Sullivan, whom you have sent us recently, we thank you for them, and trust they may be loved as much for their works’ sake, when they have been here as long, as Jolley is. Our veteran missionary, S. F. Gove, also a gift of Georgia, has re cently returned from a visit to his former home, recuperated, and en tered upon the hard work of his field, with the vim of a young man - and he is nearly 70 years young, not old yet. Anywhere almost, is good, but I am inclined to the opinion that the east coast of Florida is a very desir able section for winter visitors, who are troubled with lung (I need not say that, for none are!) or throat ails.

The management of the school in ■which Chinese men are instructed, is under Mr. A. M. Fowler, yr., while Miss or Mrs. Clark is the teacher of the Chinese women in the Mott st. school. As superintendent of the whole work, she had to provide teachers, and money to meet the needs of the schools. The work has increased so rapidly' since July last that she can no longer meet the de mands upon her. She has this to say about men as teachers for men. ■‘This work for the Chinese men has been begun ot; a new principle. We believe that their evangelization s peculiarly and specially the work of our Christian men, and, conse quently, we have followed the rule laid down at the inception of this work, to ask only men to teach. The Christian public has long and loudly demanded this change in the meth od of conducting the Chinese work. Will you now prove that your critic ism comes from and honest convic tion by taking hold of the work with us? Or will you leave us to struggle on in this vast work unaided?” This work among the Chinese in New York is in the right direction Every converted and well instructed Chinaman may become an efficient missionary among his countrymen in America, or in his native land.
