200 T HE K I N G ' S B U S I N E S S would be absolutely necessary should they undertake to judge of the teach ings on all the fundamental doctrines? But, Dr. Samuel Lindsay of Brooklyn replied in the Examiner to Dr. Vichert’s offer, that “ such a plan would never work.” He suggests a plan to Dr. Yichert that sounds more like reason. He says: “Let Dr. V ichert or some authorized rep resen tative of th e sem inary tell us ju s t th e a ttitu d e of Colgate on such questions as th e inspiration and au tho rity of th e S criptures; th e virgin b irth of Jesus Christ; th e sacrifice of Christ in relation to th e salvation of men; th e resu rrection of Christ; th e second coming of Christ and th e resu rrection of th e saints; the final estate of those who fail to accept Christ as Savior, etc. A fter Dean Y ichert has spoken, let other sem inaries in the o rd er of th e ir seniority, make th e ir confessions of faith. We shall know then where we stand. The churches then can choose the sem inaries they will support. The young men can choose the seminaries they wish to attend.” The question is—will they listen to a proposition so simple?—K. L. B. SUGGESTIVE SCRIPTURES for Special Meditation In these days every believer should meditate prayerfully upon some scripture, evidently designed by the Holy Spirit for that purpose. For this month we suggest the following: 2 Timothy 3:1-5, 13-14: This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy. Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good. Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them. T h e MEN ’S BIBLE CLASS of the Church , of the Open Door The Men’s Bible Class, of which the Associate Pastor, Mr. Horton, is the teacher, has issued a Gospel message prepared by th e P resid en t of the Class, Mr. Lyman Stewart, and 50,000 are being d istributed in the residential d istrict of the city. Accompanying th is booklet is a unique folder, dealing w ith th e various false teachings, arrang ed in comparison w ith the Word of God. We believe th a t God has set His seal upon th is church because of its unanim ity of purpose to be tru e to th e Word and work of God, as clearly defined in th e Scriptures. Samples of th e S tatem ent of Doctrine and booklet and folder will be sent to any interested, upon application and enclosure of stamp.
