King's Business - 1922-12

T HE K I N G ’ S B U S I N E S S 1227 hecome a party to a crime against God and the church, and the Presbytery of New York City is doubly guilty because they sit quietly by and permit the performance. ' Of Mr. Fosdick we would say that should a man in a political party play such a degrading game he would be called a traitor. Were a man in a business organization to lower himself to such a depth he would be branded as a crook and accused of obtaining money under false pretenses. Judas was man enough to hang himself after his betrayal of Christ. The apostles and the early church were true enough to lay down their lives in loyalty to their Lord. But, alas, today the sophistry of the siren is heard m the pulpit and water rather than red blood flows in the veins of pew holders. Satan sits in the steeple and chuckles, and swords are in their scab­ bards rather than in the hands of the soldiers of the Lord. We write with sorrow as a Presbyterian of fifty years’ service, and beseech every loyal Presbyterian to appeal to the officials of the Presbytery of New York City to fulfill their obligations to God and the church by citing the offending church for trial. Send your letters now, and follow them with your prayers. ■ WM —T. C. H.
