force these other great truths had
given and then speedily comes the
whole field of thine present
trials with the joyful declar
ation that the eternal grandeur
of the doctrine stands over against
the short-lived troubles they were
undergoing and assures them
that a little while would suffice to
show their severely tried faith to the
praise and glory and honor of Christ
in his manifestation.
From doctrine as the panacea of
of heart ills, the writer passes with
perfect ease,on to holy living as an
antedote for trouble and through the
entire letter he moves easily back
and forth along these lines touching
the heart here with a red hot coal
from the eternal altar andquickning
the energy yonder with a hopful ex
hortation till nothing, needed, is left
to comfort every heart and straight
en the weakest faith. Peter with
an ardent temperament and treacher
ous stability had learned at immense
cost how to address the Christian
heart in trouble.
While not a sermon nor a compila
tion of sermons but a well directed
letter to defenceless children of God
in great need, still it is interesting to
see how freely he used the Old Tes
tament and promises. A good way
to learn the meaning of that Epistle
would be to seek out the quotations
from the Old Testament and regard
them as texts from which he wrote.
Fearing the reader may not have
time or opportunity to search out
these quotations 1 will give them.
They are taken from the Union Ver
sion:
“Ye shall be holy for lam lioly.V
“Behold I lay in Zion a chief corner
stone, chosen, honored, and he that
believes on him shall not bo put to
shame.” “The stone which the build
ers disalowod the same is become tho
head of the corner and a stona of
stumbling and a rock of offence.”
“Who committed no sin neither was
guilt found in his mouth.” “By
whose stripes ye were healed.” “For
he who desires to love life ami to see
good days let him refrain his tongue
from evil and his lips from speaking
guile, let him seek peace and pursue
it. Because the eyes of the Lord
are upon the righteous, and his ears
are toward their supplications; but
the face of the Lord is against those
who do evil.” “Fear not with their
fear, nor be troubled, but sanctify
Christ as Lord in y/.:r hearts-”
“Love covers a multitude of sins.”
“(iod resists the proud but gives
grace to humble.”
These quotations are the pillars of
of his structure, the jewelr. in his
mind from which his own great,
heart well taught and divinely in
spired seintilates. lie writes from
the heart. You see at once that ho
is acquainted with the mighty prin
ciples of the Gospel but Ife is con
cerned in this letter with the awful
throes of tho human heart in the
furnace. ■

Athens, Jan. Bth 1893.
John xviii. 3G“Mp kingdom is not
of this world. ’ I read the article
written, before Christmas, by Bro-
JI. J. Webb, criticising the action of
a certain Baptist Aassoeiation for
voting a resolution requesting the
Legislature to pass lawj on the sub
ject of prohibition ; ami I have just
read a reply, in perterday’s I\m:x,
by Bro. J. G. JleCaii
I know bro. Wei b well, having
taught him. Having read brother
McCall’s article carefully 1 am sure
that hi does not understand tho
point made by brother Webb. The
examples quoted from Armitage's
History do not apply to brother
Webb’s criticism.
Baptist’s in all ages have held that
no human authority had the right
to dictate to any man what form of
religion he should support. When
ever therefore a government estab
lished a State religion, Baptists have
always entered their protest.
To enter a solemn protest against
government requiring Baptists to
pay tribute to a state religion is per
fectly consistent with their doctrine
of entire separation between Church
and State.
Tho action of the Association, crit
icised by brotheg Webb, contained
none of the elements of tho protests
mentioned by Dr. Armitage. That
body, as a Christian body proposed
to petition tho Legislature to pass a
law to suppress what is considered
an evil; thus acting in the capacity
of a body of citizens.
We can find no instance in the
New Testament where Jesus or his
Apostles ever petitioned any author-*
ity to issue an edict against any pub
lic evil. When the effort was made
to involve Josus with the govern
ment, bo put them to silence by say-
ing’ “Render untoCeasar the things
that are Ceasar’s, and unto God the
things that are God’s.” “My King
dom is not of this world.
A church and Association of,
churches are spiritual not political
bodies. It is their province to dis
cuss spiritual matters, or, temporal
duties growing out of their Spiritual
obligations. The discussion of poli
tics, or questions which involve pol
itics is barred by the teaching and
example of Jesus and his apostles.
If every member of tho Associa
tion, criticised by brother Webb, had
immediately after adjournment, gone
into a town meeting of citizens, and
voted for the resolutions requesting
the Legislature to pass laws in favor
of prohibition, it would have been
very proper. But never, no never
mix politics with the business of a
Baptist Association or Baptist Con
vention.
Let Christ’s kingdom and the
kingdom of this world ever be kept
separate.
Williams Rutherford.
AN IMPORTANT CONFERENCE.
Probably there has been no more
important meeting of Baptist Educa
tors, in many years than that w hich
was held at the Rooms of the The
American Baptist Home Mission So
ciety In New York City, Dec. 28th
1892. It was a notable gathering
as respects tho men who were pres
ent, the subject under discussion,
and because it was the first confer
ence ever held by representatives of
our Theological Seminaries. The
Faculties of our six Institutions had
appointed delegates to the meeting;
Newton: Drs. Hovey and English,
though Dr.Bullen came in place of Dr.
Hovey who was detained by illness;
Rochester: Drs. Strong and Patti
son, tho hitter detained by his wife’s
sickness; Hamilton: Dr. Burnham
and Prof. Schmidt; Crozer: Dr.
Johnson, who however was obliged
to go to Florida, and Dr. Long who
was not present; Louisville sent Dr
Broadus ; and Chicago, Drs. Harper
and Hulbert. Dr Pepper of Maipe,
Secretary Gates and Dr. Mac Vicar
of New York were present part of
the time, and Secretary Morehouse
throughout the sessions. Dr. Strong
was chosen President and Dr. Bul
len Secretary of the Conference.
Tho circumstances which led to
this meeting, in brief wore as fol
lows: Last May, in an address be
fore the Alumni of the Rochester
T’heological Seminary, Dr. More
house suggested that our Theologi
cal Seminaries, through united
offer . extend their work, by ma
king special provision in tho way of
courses of reading and study and
holding summer schools, for the four
fifths of the Baptist ministry who
have never enjoyed the advantages
of a thorough collegiate and semina
ry training. This suggestion awak
ened much interest which became
wide spread by the publication of
the address. This was followed by
further and more detailed sugges
tions concerning a plan of Theologi
cal Seminary work for Pastors
which was printed and submitted to
the Faculties of our Seminaries and
to a few others. A general desire
was expressed for a conference on
the subject; hence ; the meeting in
December.
This conference, after two long,
earnest and most harmonious ses
sions, decided that united or federa
ted action by all our Theological
i Seminaries is desirable, indeed is es
■ sential to tho accomplishment of
! the best and largest results in a
matter of such moment and magni
tude.
It was also decided that a uniform,
systematic and progressive course of
reading and study covering a series
of years, with a summer school of a
bout three weeks at each of the in
stitutions, for those who have en
tered the ministry without proper
preparation and for others in the
ministry who wish to avail them
selves of these privileges, is desira
ble. The use of the Seminary libra
ries and special lectures will consti
tute additional attractions. In ease
the experiment succeeds at these
points, other summer schools will be
established at places remote from
the Institutions.
The feasibility as well as the desi
rability of the scheme was consider
ed at length. It was clearly recog.
niz.ed that there might bo some dis.
ticulty in securing the services of
Professors during their vacation, al
so in inducing those who most need
it to avail themselves of tho benefit
of the plan, and also in getting the
necessary means for tho expenses
connected therewith. But believing
that “where there’s a will there’s a
way,” the Conference appointed an
Executive Committee consisting of
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY JANUARY 19,1893.
the Presidents of our six Theologic
al Schools, viz., Drs. Hovey, Strong,
Weston, Clarke, Broadus, and Hul
bert, with Dr. Morehouse as Chair
man, to mature a plan, submit it to
the several Faculties and thereafter
to another meeting of the Conference
which adjourned subject to the call
of the Committee.
It was also voted to request the
American Baptist Education Society
to consider whether its efficient aid
cannot be given to the promotion of
this plan.
All present were highly gratfied
with the spirit and results of the
Conference. There can be no doubt
that the men in our Theological
watch towers are studying tho signs
of the times, are disposed to adapt
those methods and to extend their
helpful influence for the benefit of
thousands in our ministry who have
never come under their immediate
instruction, if only a thoroughly
feasible plan of doing this can be de
vised. The Committee appointed
by the Conference will welcome
suggestions from any quarter. It
will now be in order to bear from
the denomination at large.
CHURCH DISCIPLINE.
BY F. M. LAW.
Webster defines: “The enforce
ment of methods of correction against
one guilty of ecclesiastical offences;
reformatory or penal action toward
a church member.” Not a bad defi
nition, especially as our fathers un
derstood the matter.
This is « hacknied subject and it is
probable most readers on seeing the
caption will pass to something else.
And yet it is a subject worthy of ser
ious consideration.llasjthere not been
a retro-grade as to dealing with mem
bers of the church within the last
thirty to fifty years? If so, what is
the matter, were the churches
too rigid then? Or are they too lax
now? 1 remember, when a boy, it
was expected that all the members
would be at the church meeting, ami
if one was absent he was expected to
give his excuse at the next meeting j
and if absent from two consecutive
conferences without a known good
reason he was specially inquired af
ter. Wo are told to, “Forsake not
the assembling yourselves together.”
Now, members may violate this di
vine rule for a whole year, and little
or no attention is given to their ne
glect. It used to be that the “Fel
lowship of the Church” was called
for, and breaks in fellowship receiv
ed prompt attention. Now it is
known that members of the same
church go for months, and some
times longer, without speaking to
each other, and no notice taken of it
by tho church. The teachings of
the Saviour are very explicit against
this condition of things, and yet his
instructions are ignored. Drunken
ness, fighting, etc., received prompt
attention and acknowledgments re
quired, or cxpulsoins took place.
Os late years such cases pass unno
ticed. Members are spoken of as
gambling without being disciplined
by the church. It is not a rare thing
for church members to be charged
before the courts with these things,
tried, found guilty and fined, and
yet not brought before the church.
Church members were not expected
to patronize the theater and ball
room, but now, in many places, in
this regard, there is little or no dif
ference between the church ami the
world. Why all this change? Is it
an incident of greater intelligence
and a higher civilization? Some
would have us believe this. I can
not accept this as true. But sup
pose rather that Baptists have been
led to follow’ the example of others,
and generally of organizations which
do not require a converted member
ship, and even make light of such
thing. Baptists should be consis
tent. They properly require a con
verted membership and should show
a converted life. Not to do this is
shameful pretense. What is said
above about tho loosenesss in the
churches do not apply to all, but
but there is reason to believe such
a state of things does exist in many
of our churches, especially in our
towns and cities.
Some of the most prominent
churches are in the condition des
cribed, and the matter of discipline
is neglected. Will our churches al
low such a state of things to contin
ue? Will the pastors? The writer
is not unaware of tho difficulties of
exorcising church discipline, and yet
it should be done. Our churches
will become corrupt, increasingly so,
without it, and cease to be a moral
power in the land.
If no other remedy be found it
may become necessary for the dis
trict associations to take cognizance
of these things. They are bodies of
discipline, as well as of work. The
evil should be remedied in some
way.’ Let proper efforts be made to
keep the church pure. Cultivation
and trimming are vitally necessa
ry-
I refer to immorality in the town
and city churches, because it is be
lieved that it is more tolerated there
than, in the country churches. The
temptations are greater, and while
there are many in the city who deplore
the state of things, there is a larger
proportion,doubtless, who entertain a
spirit of toleration. My observation
as to discipline in tho churches has
not been very extensive and the
looseness mentioned may not be
widespread. But my impression is
that it prevails generally to an ex
tent requiring prayerful attention
and action on the part of the
churches.

ASKED AND ANSWERED.
BY C. E. W. DOBBS.
What is the meaning of the word
•‘generation” as used by Jesus in
Matt. 24: 34? j. ii. c.
There is no good reason to seek
any other than the usual meaning of
the word. Jesus frequently used it.
See Matt. 11:16; 12:39, 41/45; Luke
11 :29, 32; 17:25, and elsewhere l
He meant the people then living on
the earth. Some of that generation
should live to see the fulfillment of
all his predictions concerning the
destruction of Jerusalem, which
event occurred about forty years
after ho uttered the prophecy.
1. Are theatres wrong in princi
ple? If so, why?
2. Certain “straightlaced” breth
ren object to harmless amateur the
atricals on the ground that theater
going is wrong. Are they extremists?
8. Is it wrong to run a livery
stable on Sunday ? m.
1. This question we discussed
quite recently in our editorial col
umns, and wo cannot now give space
to a full answer. We believe the
aters aro wrong in fact, whatever
they may be in “principle.” Cer
tainly the calm judgement of all
reformed actors and actresses con
demns the stage. In our editorial
discussion we adduced the testimony
to this effect of such eminent persons
as Rev. Dr. Lorimer, Mrs. Anna
Cora Mowatt, the tragedian Mc-
ijnd others-
They an in the opinion that
theaters .are immoral and evil in
their intiuence on both actors and
attendants.
2. Probably the “straightlaced’’
brethren conscientiously object be
cause they see evil growing out of
the things they condemn. Certainly
they aro entitled to the respectful
regard of the younger people, whose
experience does not so well qualify
them to judge of such matters. It
is not an easy thing to draw the line
between harmful and “harmless
amateur theatricals.” It is so easy to
glide into the former from the
latter, just as they who play cards
“only for amusement in’the parlor”
have only a step or two to take to
laud them in tho gambler's den.
Better avoid all questionable things
of the kind.
3. That depends. There are some
things that a livery stable may and
must do on Sunday. Il must at
least see that all its boarding horses
are eared for on that day, and it
must meet such demands as funerals,
and other necessary matters, make
upon it. We think though that a
Christian man should close his sta
ble on the Lord’s-day to such busi
ness as ministers only to godless
dissipation.
While this department of the In
di:x is not intended as a forum of
a controversy, we cheerfully give
space to the following word from
our good brother P. F. C. We do
not intend to discuss the question at
all, yet we suggest that “Regular
Baptists” arc by no means a unit in
their action as to the treatment of
such offenders as our brother refers
to. It is doubtful, for example,
whether any “Regular Baptist”
church in America would have “ex-'
eluded” Mr. Spurgeon from its fel
low ship:
Dkar Bro. Domis: I am not
quite satisfied with your answer to
C. M. C'» question in the Index of
Dec. 15th concerning the Freewill
brother. A “good reason for requi
ring the brother to be rebaptized’’ is
found in the following. Regular
Baptists can not recognize as valid
any work done by persons who stand
excluded from their fellowship, such
work being without authority and ir
regular. Freewill Baptists stand exclu
ded from the fellowship of consist
ent Baptist churches and of course
their work including baptism must
be considered irregular and without
authority and can not be recognized
as valid. If Freewill Baptists are
not excluded from our fellowship
then we are guilty of the inconsist
ency of holding in fellowship per
sons of another Denomination who
are constantly practicing that for
which we would exclude one of our
own members, “open communion”.
There may be many churches at the
North who would be guilty of such
inconsistency but let us hope they
are few in the South. But if they
should, it would not make it right.
p. f. c.
Several Issues back you speak of
a limited atonement. Is there real
«
ly such a thing? From the nature
of the question is it not true that the
sacrifice, required to atone for the
least sin, (if any sin can be so desig
nated,) by logical necessity, atones
for the greatest sin? We speak now
of sin generally, as being an infrac
tion of the law. Nothing short of
an infinite sacrifice would, or noth
ing greater could be demanded in
either event. Therefore when you
apeak of limited atonement you
mean do you’not, that it is accepted
by a limited number, called in the
scriptures the Elect?
j. s.F.
The phrase “limited atonement” is
a well defined theological one. It
moans that view of atonement which
is thus expressed by Dj. Dagg:
“The son of God gave his life to re
deem those who were given to him
by the Father in tho covenant of
grace.” This is is called “particular
redemption.” Since salvation will
not be universal, Dr. Dagg argues
that “redemption cannot have been
universal in its purpose; otherwise
will fail to be accomplished,
and all, for which the work of re
demption was undertaken, will not
be effected.” “In Paul’s view all
all those for whom Christ’s death
made reconciliation [atonement],
will certainly be saved.” This is
what is theologically known as the
doctrine of “limited atonement..’’
In our answers we have simply sta
ted, we have not defended it. An
drew Fuller’s able discustion of this
entire question is about the most sat
isfactory we have ever read. He
led the English Baptists out of the
stricter Calvinian system of Gill and
others, into what, has been termed
“modern Calvnism.” We repeat the
phrase notwithstanding a venerable
brother writes us that “Dr. Mell used
to smile when he heard the expres
sion used.”
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
nes, and that is by constitutional re
medies. Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closeed,Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
tlainmation can be taken out and
this tube is restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever ; nine cases out of ten are caus
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucons
surfaces.

THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD.
Lesson for Jan. 29th, 1893.
Scripture Lessen. — Zech. 4:1-10.
Motto Text : —Not by might, nor
by power, but by my spirit, saith
the Ldrd of hosts, vs. 6.
introduction.
The returned exiles were discour
aged. Well might they be so as.
their condition is viewed from a hu
man standpoint. They were very
weak as to numbers and resources,
their enemies were strong and bitter,
and the work before them involved
great difficulties. The prophet’s
special mission is to replace this
discouragement with new hope and
zeal. Well might he falter but that
the Lord is working and speaking in
and through him.
In his fifth vision, our present les
son, he points a source of strength
set over against their weakness. Had
their condition been many times
worse, the lesson now presented, if
learned aright, ought to, inspire the
loftiest courage and hope. “Not by
might, nor by power, but by my
Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.”
explanation.
I. The Vision, vs. 1-3.
Waked me.—He was in some
special sense aroused, prepared for
the reception of a divine message by
the quickening of his perception and
understanding. Candlestick.—Or
lampstand, after the manner of the
one in the first temple. Bowl.—a
central source of supply for all the
lamps, differing in this feature from
the candlestick of the first temple.
Seven pipes. The number seven is
usually regarded as the symbol of
completeness or perfection.
It is of the utmost importance in
the study of this vision to avoid try
ing to find a special significance in
every detail. There are two princi
pal thoughts, (a) the lamp in its
general structure and design, and (b)
the source or supply of power by
which it is enabled to shine. The
lamp is made to shine. Apart from
any details of this vision we know
that to fulfill its purpose the lamp
must be constructed of proper mate
rials and upon proper principles.
But though a lamp be made of gold,
and fashioned by skillful artist, it bws
no light-giving power of itself. So
oil must be provided and proper
channels of communication devised.
Until this is done the lamp is useless
for lighting purpose?. So that which
is necessary to it in the fulfillment
of its mission is a proper supply of
oil. This supply must be not sim
ply a reservoir, but a fountain. It
must be constant, unfailing, living,
as is aptly illustrated by the olive
tree. To give special significance to
the number of olive trees as being
two instead of one or three or four
involves more difficulties in the inter
pretation than can be got rid of. So
it is not only wise, but absolutely
necessary according to right princi
ples of interpretation, to disregard
the details, and grasp the main
thought of the writer.
11. The Vision Interpreted
and Applied, vs. 4-10.
The angel upon request interprets
the vision, and his explanation is in
accord with the principle above pre
sented. As unto the lamp so power
less of itself to shine oil is furnished
by the] olive tree, so unto the Jews
so weak and defenseless shall the
Spirit of the Lord be given to make
them sufficient for the work to bo
done. In the Lord shall be their
trust and their help more than in all I
the powers of man. Before the I
power of this Spirit the mountains
shall vanish and become less than a
mole-hill. The temple shall be com
pleted despite the greatness of the
obstacles. The placing of the head
stone shall mark its completion.
The vision then unfolds its greater
fulness of promise by showing that '
the work shall be finished, nbt at
some far distant time, but by the
hands of him who began it. To
Zerubbabcl shall come the joy of
seeing the completed house. Against
the day of small things, the day of
weakness and want and gloom, shall
bo set a day of success and rejoicing.
God in his providence, as symbolized
by the seven eyes, shall watch over
all with tender care, and assure the
fulfillment of tho words which aro
his own, now spoken by the prophet.
Suggestions.
1. The mission of tho lamp is to
shine. It has no other. The church
is to be a light to the world. (Rev.
1:20; Matt. 5:14-10). But it is by a
light not its own. Its power and
influence must be communicated
from above. The only proper end a
Christian can have in the world is to
let his light shine that God may be
glorified.
2. The Holy Spirit is the source
of all light and strength and joy to
the church and to the individual
Christian. His help is to be suffi
cient unto our need, is given without
measure. The promise is that our
Father is more willing to give his
Holy Spirit unto us than earthly
parents are to give good gifts unto
their children. See Luke 11:5-13.
Our need to-day is not for greater
numbers, or finer churches, or mWre
eloquence or means of any descrip
tion. What we need is a gracious
outpouring of God’s Spirit upon us.
As we depend upon him and pray
for him he will come. O for the
power of God’s Spirit upon his peo
ple EVERYWHERE.
