"Doesn't Like Labels" If you were in our home (which would be a happy occasion for us) you would find many religious periodicals. We like every feature of The King’s Business and are glad to have a publication which so earnestly contends for the faith once delivered unto the saints. I cannot agree with the lady who wrote in your Reader Reaction that she did not like labels. Labels are necessary to designate poisons. A correct label is our safeguard. Some of our church dignitaries and those under their con­ trol poison the spiritual lives of many whom they fascinate with their winning personalities and persuasive oratory. They should be “ labeled.” A few quotations from Federal (now National) Council leaders should suffice: “ Is not the tendency to deify Jesus more heathen than Christian?” “ Jesus Christ is the summit of evo­ lution.” “ Of course I do not believe in the Virgin Birth . . . I do not know o f any intelligent Christian minister who does.” “ The legend of the fall . . . bristles with difficulties.” “ Nothing is easier than to make a joke of the whole story of the .flood.” “ It would be an error to consider the Soviet leader a wilful man who believes in forcing his ideas upon others.” C. H. W r ig h t Fredericktown, Ohio I find your magazine a great help by exposing apostasy and false teaching. I especially enjoy Reader Reaction and Dr. Talbot’s Question Box. With reference to the letter in the February issue entitled, “ Doesn’t Like Labels” we read In Genesis 6:15 “ God set a mark upon Cain.” It is easy to understand that it was for his protec­ tion, “ Lest any finding him should kill him.” This mark would also serve as a warning to separate from his danger­ ous religious practice. I believe we should expose everything endangering the soul wherever it is manifested. May God help The King’s Business to keep the readers posted! H o w a r d F l in t Randall, N. Y. I am interested in true Christian doctrine . . . according to the Scriptures. Am non-sectarian, and believe that “ All Scripture is given by inspiration of God.” I do not believe in the so-called Federal Council o f Churches, to bring people together into the unity of true faith under a compromise of man’s wis­ dom; it would not be Christian. But I do believe that Christians should come into a better unity of faith. H e r m a n J. H e g w e r
