EMBLY SKIRMISH WILL
AID ATTACKED SEMINARY,
DECLARES DR. STELZLE
Union Theological School Not So
Anxious for Presbyterians to Take
It Under Its Wing, He Says—The
Church Made Move for‘"Wedding.”
By Rev. Cha rles Stelzle.
Everybody bad supposed that the relationship between Union
Theological Seminary and the Presbyterian General Assembly in
the last year or two was that of courtship, with the General As
sembly as the suitor.
At least this is the impression that one might have secured by
listening to the debates and particularly the resolutions adopted
at previous assemblies, with ref-
THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN' AND NEWS. TUESDAY, MAY 20, 1913.

erence to this matter,
f The Assembly proposed union
—it was the aggressor-—but
while the basis of union, or, at
least, of closer relationship was
accepted by Union Seminary,
the Assembly seemed in a mood
Monday to “break the engage
ment,” and it found itself Tues
day morning in the position of
returning the little “tokens of
endearment” which had been
confidently placed in its hands.
Here is the resolution adopted by
the Assembly of 1911, which was the
basis of the approach to the di
vorced but "hausrhty body,” who yet
h was believed to have tender feelings
'R toward the Presbyterian Assembly.
Resolution of Lost Year.
Whereas, The Union Theologi
cal Seminary in the city of New
York was founded by Presbyte
rians and largely endowed from
Presbyterian sources; and
Whereas, Some years past there
developed a condition which led
to the severing of the rations
which had existed from the the
organisation of the seminary, be
tween it and the General Assem
bly; and
Whereas. We are persuaded
that there are in the faculty and
in the directorate of Union Theo
logical Seminary men who are in
1 accord with evangelical Christi
anity as expressed in the Stand
ard* Of the Presbyterian Church
in the United States of America,
and who are zealous in ail good
work for the growth of the kind-
dom of our Lord Jesus Christ in
the world; and
Whereas, We believe that it
would be a signal manifestation
of the spirit of our Lord and Sa-
fViour Jesus Christ, who prayed
'“that they all may be one,” for
Christian brethren, under the
gracious .guidance of the Holy
Spirit, to remove all misunder
standings. alienations and antag
onism, and to become vitally and
aggressively united in the doc
trine of our beloved church in
the work of bringing nations and
the world to Christ; therefore,
be it
Committee Named.
Resolved, That the Assembly
hereby authorizes the moderator
to appoint a committee of nine,
to consist of five ministers, of
whom the moderator shall be one,
and four ruling elders, none of
whom shall be connected with the
directors and faculty of the said
seminary, with a view of the re
establishment of relations be
tween the seminary and the Gen
eral Assembly on the basis of the
standards of the Presbyterian
Church in the United States of
America; this committee to re
port at the next Assembly.
This committee, after much dis
cussion, finally submitted to Union
Seminary two proposition, which
ware to serve as the basis of closer
friendship.
The first of these question* is this:
Will the board of directors make such
provision a* will secure to all Pres
byterian students In attendance upon
Union Theological Seminary such ad

of church government, discipline, or
ganization and history as will qualify

questions on these subjects, pro
pounded, according to church law and
usage, at their licensure and ordina
tion to the Presbyterian ministry?
The second question is this: Will
the board of directors make such pro
vision as will secure to all Presbyte
rian students in attendance upon
Union Theological Seminary such ad
equate instruction, as an integral part
of their theological training, in the
special system of doctrine contained
in the symbols of the Presbyterian
Church, as will enable them to answer
satisfactorily the questions respecting
Presbyterian doctrine, propounded ac
cording to church law and usage, at
their licensure and ordination to the
Presbyterian ministry?
But They Cut “Her” Dead.
“Yes,” said the directors and facul
ty, “we accept your proposal.” This
may have been “too sudden”—not to
the seminary, but to the committee.
Anyway, when it made its report
Monday, it said some “awful nice
things” about the “lady," but it “cut
her dead.”
“We’ll just be a brother to you,”
said the committee, “and maybe some
time in the future—five years, per
haps—we’ll see how we feel toward
each other; and then possibly the
wedding will take place.”
Now, this was all very beautiful,
and It seemed perfectly reasonable
that the big, strong General A**semb!y
suitor should dictate the terms in this
courtship, but—
“Nobody asked you, sir. she said.”
was what Dr. Brown remarked, in
substance, when he got the platform.
This was a stunner. Most people
had supposed that Union Seminary
was eager to come back into the As
sembly. Dr. Brown’s simple little
speech rather nonplussed them for a
while.
"Union Seminary isn’t asking for
anything It comes here because
you’ve asked us to come We wanted
to meet you. and perhaps become bet
ter acquainted with you. so that we
might work out together some of the
big problems in the church,” Dr.
Brown said in substance.
As Usual, There Are “Rivals.”
But, like in every love story, there
were “rivals.” They appeared in the
presentation of the minority reports.
Dr. John R. Davies, who presented
minority report No. 1, is a director in
Princeton Theological Seminary,
Union’s most bitter enemy. Dr. F. C.
Monfort, who brought in minority re
port No. 2. is a director in Lane Theo
logical Seminary, which isn’t too fond
of Union. Now, rivals don’t, as a
rule, say nice things about the girl
who is really being courted by the
great big strong fellow ‘whom they
like, too.
tl wasn't surprising, therefore, that
such phrases as “Hindoo philosophy
is being taught at Union Seminary”
and “unitarianism is the belief of its
professors,” and even worse charges
of downright dishonesty should be
made by the men who represented
these rival institutions. To be sure,
they were perfectly sincere—aside
from their intimate connection with
these conservative institutions, rivals
alw'ays are sincere.
But the fact remains—Union Sem
inary had fulfilled its contract in the
particular proposition made to it by
the committee of the Assembly and
was then turned down.
Now Union Theological Seminary
is working for an endowment of a
million and a half—the exact amount
doesn’t matter much, for Union prob
ably will plan for even bigger things
when it secures this sum. because this
theological university—big, broad, but
thoroughly evangelical—is growing at
a tremendous rate in influence and In
enrollment.
Row Will Aid School.
Yesterday's skirmish in the Genera'
Assembly will help to increase both
Union’s endowment and its number
of students. It has always been so in
previous fights. Perhaps when the
newspapers this morning printed the
story that the Assembly was in a
frame of mind to rebuke the seminary
for standing by what seemed right to
its directors and faculty, somebody
immediately wrote out a check for a
good big sum and sent it to Dr. Fran
ks Browp, its calm, cultured, Chris
tian president.
The other men in this fight are
Christian men, too. Both Dr. Davies
and Dr. Monfort are noted for their
fine admirable Christian characters.
That’s what makes this whole con
troversy so sad and so difficult to ad
just. It’s a case of good men and
true differing, not merely in personal
matters, but they all truly believe
that they are “fighting the battle of
the I*ord.“ And when a man believes
that, he’ll die rather than betray his
trust.
However. Union Theological Sem
inary and the General Assembly will
some day be “wed.” Not in just the
way that some folks wish, but they’ll
fight together against the common
foe of injustice and sin. and then
they’ll find that the hearts of these
men on the other side are right,
whatever may have been their theo
logical differences—and a man's good
heart is a whole lot bigger thing than
his theological convictions, no matter
how profound.
Meanwhile other suitors have been
making advances to Union Seminary.
The Methodists. Baptists and Episco
palians have made arrangements
through which students from their
bodies will receive special instruction
in their peculier doctrine and polity.
This probably forever precludes the
possibility of making Union Seminary
a distinctively Presbyterian institu
tion.

SOUTH CHURCH
SETS FORTH
BELIEFS
Revised Epitome of Doctrine Is
Drawn Up and Presented by
Committee.
Here is the "Brief Statement of
Belief,’’ submitted to the Presbyterian
Church (South) to-day by Dr. J. M.
Wells, for the committee named for
the purpose;
Explanatory Note.
Inasmuch as there is some differ
ence of opinion concerning the status
and use of any report which it may
make, this committee desires to
state that it does not understand
that the Assembly instructed it to
provide a statement of doctrine
which shall be a substitute for, or
an addition or an amendment to, any
of the documents contained in the
ronatitutlon of the church, or of any
part thereof.
It respectfully suggests that, in
the event the Assembly approves
this report, the statement submit
ted shall be referred to the execu
tive committee of publication, to be
printed and circulated as may be
deemed best.
The Statement.
I. God.
God a spirit. Infinite, eternal,
and unchangeable; all-powerful,
holy, wise, good. true, and just, hat
ing all sin. He is merciful and gra
cious, long suffering, and abundant
in goodness and truth, not willing
that any should perish, but that all
should come to repentance; this
truth is summed up in the Bible
statement. “God is love” He ex
ists in three persons, Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit, w-ho are one God,
the same in substance, equal in pow
er and glory.
If. The Bible.
The Word of God. written by men
inspired by the Holy Spirit, ia con
tained in the Scriptures ol the Old
and New Testaments, and are the
will of God. It is the revelation of
God’s will for man and of man's
duty to God, and is the only in
fallible and authoritative rule of
faith and life.
III. God’s Purpose.
The eternal purpose of God In
cludes all events; it Is holy and wise,
and does not deprive man of free
dom, nor make God the author of sin.
IV. Creation.
For the manifestation of his own
glory, God created the world and all
things therein, whether visible or in
visible. and all very good. He made
man after his own image; male and
female created he them, with im
mortal souls, endowed with knowl
edge. righteousness and holiness,
having the law of God in their
hearts, and power to fulfill it; and
yet under a possibility of transgres
sion. being left to the freedom of
their own will.
V. Sin and the Fall.
Sin is the violation of God's law.
either by omission or commission.
Our first parents, being tempted by
8atan, disobeyed God’s command,
and so by their own choice fell from
their original state of innocence and
communion with God, and came
under the power of sin. the penalty
of which is eternal death. All men.
by reason of their relationship to
Adam as their representative head
and common ancestor, are born with
a sinful nature from which all
actual transgressions proceed; and
out of this condition no one is able
to deliver himself.
Vi. Salvation.
God. wrho is rich in mercy, so
loved the world that he gave his only
begotten Son to be the Saviour of
sinners. The salvation thus provid
ed is freely offered to all men, and
is sufficient for all, but becomes ef
ficacious only in those who believe in
Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
VII. Election.
Before the foundation of the world.
God the Father chose unto Himself
in Christ a people whom He gave to
His Son, that they should be holy
and without blame before Him in
lovie. Those who come to years of
discretion receive this salvation only
through faith in Christ, being re
generated by the Holy Spirit Those
who die in infancy, and all others
who are incapable of exercising
choice, are regenerated and saved by
Christ through the Spirit who works
when and where and how he pleases
We thus declare that God’s electing
grave has peopled heaven with a
multitude that no man can number,
and has never sent one soul to hell.
VIII. Christ the Redeemer.
The Lord Jesus Christ, being the
eternal Son of God, became truly
man, being conceived by the Holy
Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary,
yet without sin; so that He is both
God and man, and the only perfect
mediator between God and man, by
whom alone we can come unto the
Father. By a life of perfect obe
dience and by His sacrificial death.
Hp satisfied divine justice, made a
perfect atonement for sin. and rec
onciles us to God. He rose from
the dead and ascended into heaven,
where he makes continual interces
sion for us: and He sits at the -right
hand of God. clothed with honor and
power, subduing His people unto
Himself, ruling and defending them,
and restraining and conquering all
His and their enemies. He will
come again to receive and reward
His people and to judge the world.
IX. The Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit, the third person
of the Godhead, applies the redemp
tion purchased by Christ He per- •
suades and enables men to obey
the call of the gospel, and dwells
continually in every believer a* the
spirit of truth, of holiness, of power
and ol comfort, and is thereby the
author of all Christian experience
X. Justification by Faith.
Everyone who humbly relies upon
Christ alone for salvation and in re
pentance confesses and forsakes his
sins, is pardoned and accepted as
righteous in God's sight, solely on
the ground of the perfect obedience
and sacrifice of Jesus Christ Every
one thus pardoned and accepted is
adopted into God’s family, and be
comes an heir of God and a joint
heir with Jesus Christ.
XI. The Christian Life,
The Holy Spirit imparts spiritual
life by the direct operation of his
power, so that, being born from
above, we are the children of God,
created in Christ Jesus unto good
works, which are not the ground
but the fruits of salvation. Dwell
ing in Christ's people, he purifies
them more and more from sin, en
ables them to render a cheerful and
loving obedience to God’s command
ments. and perseveres in his sancti
fying work in their hearts until at
last they stand perfect in the pres
ence of Christ in glory. Believers
may at times backslide, growing in
different and cold, and even falling
Into grievous sins; yet God does not
cast them off. but chastens them,
and restores them through repent
ance to fellowship with him.
XII, The Church.
We acknowledge one universal
church, the same in all ages, and
of which Christ is the head. The
church invisible consists of ail the
redeemed. The church visible Is
composed of all those throughout the
work! who profess faith in Jesus
Christ, our Lord. together with
their children, and It is the duty of
all believers openly to profess their
faith by uniting with the church
The church exists to bring to Christ
those whom the Father has given
him. and to establish the Redeem
er's kingdom The mission of tne
church is spiritual, and its work is
Ministers 9 Ranks Thinning;
Missionaries Increasing
<<
Want Ads” Are Good Reading
The first report heard at t^ie Tues
day morning session of the United
Presbyterian Assembly was that of
the woman's board. .Tills r*iiiart
showed a larger number of unmar
ried woman missionaries sent out the
past year than any preceding year.
The year closed without a deficit.
The report was adopted without dis
cussion.
Reports on the state >of religion
and education were unanimously
adopted.
An attempt was made to bring up
the ftgbt between the home mission
board and the board of publication
for control of Sabbath school work.
Dr. John A. Henderson presented a
resolution that a special Committee,
consisting of seven men not connect
ed with either board, be appointed
to investigate the conflicting claims,
and report-the results of this investi
gation to next year’s Assembly. Dr.
McGill opposed Its appointment, say
ing It would hinder the Sabbath school
work. Other delegates supported him.
Dr. L. W. Williamson, of Topeka,
Kans., declared it seemed that neither
board was hurt but that a certain
worker was, and asked the Assembly
to find a position for the worker re
ferred to.. Dr. Russell replied that the
report yesterday merely showed the
worker’s term had expired. Dr. Hen
derson then withdrew his motion.
Ministers Decrease in Number.
It was shown by the report on
theological seminaries that the num
ber of deaths in the ministerial ranks
exceeded the number of young men
entering by 11, and recommended that
a campaign be waged presenting the
claims of the gospel ministry to the
young men in (he-colleges. The re
port was adopted.
It was voted to change the time of
adjournment from 12 to 12:30 after
to-day.
The session on Monday afternoon
was featured by a stormy debate over
a recommendation made by the com
mittee on bills and overtures to reaf
firm the action of last year’s Assem
bly in taking control of mission Sab
bath schools and Sabbath school ex
tension work from the hands of the
to witness to the truth of God to the
ends of the earth, and to preach
the gospel to all men in every gen
eration. We believe in the separa-.
tion of church and state. The scrip
tural form of church government is
by elders or presbyters, chosen by
the members of the cburch; but we
do not regard the form of govern
ment of a church as essential to Its
existence. We recognise the validity
of the ministry and sacraments of
all evangelical churches, and seek
the unity of the *Splr!t in the bonds
of peace. Ministers, elders and dea
cons, at their ordination, are re
quired to subscribe to the system of
doctrine contained in our standards,
but the sole condition for member
ship in the church is a credible con
fession of Christ as Saviour.
XIH. The Sacraments.
There are two sacraments, bap
tism, which symbolizes the work of
the Holy Hpirit, and the Lord's Sup
per, which symbolizes the sacrificial
death of Christ. Sprinkling ur pour
ing is the Scriptural mode of bap
tism. but the mode is not essential
to the validity of the sacrament.
Children of believers, before reach
ing the age of personal accountabil
ity. are to be baptized on the faith
of their parents, who in the sacra
mental act enter into covenant rela
tions with God. We invite to the
Lord's table all who love Him in
sincerity and truth and who ax.e in
good and regular standing in .cyan
fielical chur.ches y
XIV. Death and Resurrection.
The souls of believers are at their
death nm.de perfect in lroliness: and
do immediately pass Into glory, and
their bodies, being still united to
Christ, do rest in the grave till the
resurrection. At the resurrection,
believers being raised up in glory,
shall be openly acknowledged ami’
acquitted fn the day of judgment,
and made perfectly blessed In the
full enjoyment of God to all eter
nity; but the wicked shall go away
into everlasting punishment.,.
XV. The Final State.
There are but two states of future
existence, heaven, the home of the
redeemed, and hell, the abode of the
finally impenitent. There is no pur
gatory. nor is there any probation
after death. Man retains his iden
tity after death, and there will be
recognition in the future life We
believe in the ultimate and complete
triumph of the Saviour's kingdom,
and with all His followers in all ages
we toil and pray for the speedy com
ing of the day when our glorious
I*ord shall see of the travail of His
soul and shall be satisfied.

board of publication and putting it In
charge of the board of home mis
sions.
I*r W. B. Kmiley, secretary of the
Sabbath school work, which office
would be abolished if the recom
mendation were adopted, made the
charge that politics was at the bot
tom of the recommendation. Mr.
Bmiiey stated to a Georgian reporter
that some one outside the mission
board was responsible for the recom
mendation being made
The courtesies of the floor were
extended t® Dr. W. J. Reed, chairman
of the Sabbath school committee.
Dr. Reed stated that Dr. Smiley wrote
him several weeks ago that a plot
was on foot to take all matters per
taining to the Sabbath school work
from the hands of the board of pub
lication.
Dr. Reed said that he had Investi
gated these charges and found no
evidence of such a plot. He stated
further ehat the Sabbath school w r ork
was one of the most important parts
of church work, and that the home
mission board desired to retain con
trol of it for another year
A motion was next made and car
ried by a majority of about ten to
put control of the Rabbah school work
back in the hands of the board of
publication. This motion later was
killed. An amendment was then
made and unanimously carried that
the present arrangement be continued
until next year. This leaves control
in the hands of the home mission
board, and abolishes Dr. Smiley's of
fice.
It w.as decided that The Christian
Instructor be disposed of at the beM
possible terms and as ♦-arly as pos
sible, the committee having found
that it was being operated at a loss
of .about 1500 a month.
Dr. A. R. Robinson. of Pittsburg.
Pa., was chairman of the committee
on bills and overtures. The other
members were Rev. W. J. Grimes.
