mittee,” but those Arkansas
Baptists are not of the side
stepping sort! If the Baptists
and ■ Methodists and Disciples
(we can count on the Presby
terians already) in every State
will take the open, firm stand
taken by these Arkansas Bap
tists, we will drive Evolution
out of our tax-supported schools
within five years.
Some Evolutionist Univer
sity or College President or
Professor may sneer and say
that these Arkansas Baptists dc
not understand Evolution, w^ere
not competent to pass such res
olutions. If any one of them
who thinks this will get the en
dorsement of Columbia Univer
sity or of Chicago University
or of any other reputable Uni
versity that is committed to
the teaching of ^Evolution, as
the representation of Evolution
teaching, the columns of The
Conflict are open for a debate
with Allen Hill Autrey, for
three years President of the
Arkansas Baptist State Con
vention on “Shall Evolution
teachers be excluded from tax-
supported schools?” or on “Is
Evolution a Science?” or on
“Is the teaching of Evolution,
that man evolved from the
lower animal, true?” The Con
flict will agree to have the de
bate published in cheap book
form for broadcast distribu
tion.
Here are the Arkansas res
olutions. Why should not
similar resolutions be adopted
by the Baptists, Disciples,
Methodists and others of every
State?
ANTI-EVOLUTION RESOLU
TION.
(Adopted by Arkansas Con
vention)
Believing that the time has
come for Arkansas Baptists to
declare their position on Evo
lution and Modernism, the fol
lowing resolutions are offered;
Be it resolved, first, that:
We believe that the Bible IS
God’s revelation to man; that
it does not only contain God’s
Word but that it is really and
actually God’s revelation of
Himself to man. We believe
it is divinely inspired, being
written by men moved by the
Holy Spirit. We accept un
reservedly and unqualifiedly
the Genesis account of creation
as both accurate and true, and
that the language here used is
“neither allegorical nor figura
tive, nor hypothetical, nor in
ferential,” but gives the plain,
simple, account of God’s crea
tive' act. We believe the mira
cles recorded in the Bible w^ere
actually performed as they are
recorded. We believe Jesus
Christ was born of the Virgin
Mary through the powder of the
Holy Spirit, and that He is
very God; that His death was!
vicarious; His resurrection'
bodily, and His return will be;
personal.
Be it resolved, second, that: |
We do not believe in Darwin-1
ian evolution, materialistic or i
atheistic or theistic, or any
other theory of evolution by S
W'hatever name called which j
proposes to teach that therei
is, or has been, such a thing *
i primates. We believe that man
is the direct creation of God
i and not the product of some
; form of evolved life.
Be it resolved third that:
We believe that the greatest
menace to truth and spiritual
religion are rationalism, des
tructive criticism and the sub
stitution of culture and social
service for personal regenera
tion through the operation of
the Holy Spirit; that these
teachings are contrary to God’s
Word, discredit the teachings
of Jesus, deny His deity, and
are destructive to the founda
tions of Christianity and civili
zation.
Be it resolved fourth that:
This convention go on record
as endorsing these doctrinal
statements.
Be it resolved fifth that:
This convention require each
and every one, president and
faculty and all employes of our
boards, who hold position with
our educational institutions or
boards to sign one of these
doctrinal statements.
Let the reader re-read those
resolutions.
They are simple, plain, com
prehensive. Why should not
these resolutions be adopted by
the Baptist State Conventions
of North Carolina, Virginia,
Alabama and other States that
have not gone on record? No
clearer statements of what
Baptists., CongY^lgutionalists,
j Disciples, Episcopalions, Luth
erans, Methodists, Presbyteri
ans and other Evangelicals pro
fess to believe will ever be
made. Are leaders of these
people so narrow and little that
they are afraid to adopt res
olutions that express their be
liefs, simply because the resolu
tions originated in Arkansas?
They passed ringing resolutions
concerning the world war; this
is a war where there is far
more at stake.
Let the truth be told: the
only reason why these resolu
tions cannot be passed by every
Evangelical body in America
is that some of the leaders
among these peoples are going
to’ side-track everything of this
kind in order to protect a few
great men among them who do
not believe and teach these
things. Shall the great body
of the common people continue
like serfs, to be led by the
nose by their denominational
.leaders in order to protect the
rotten, deadly teaching of a
few great men and let our
children be damned by it, and
through this course help fasten
Evolution upon our tax-sup
ported schools?
No one will deny that these
resolutions, in a most clear-cut
way, express the beliefs of the
great body of Evangelicals.
FOR MEN TO HOLD OF
FICIAL POSITIONS AND
HOLD AND TEACH THINGS
CONTRARY TO THE TEACH
INGS OF THESE RESOLU
TIONS, IS TO OBTAIN
MONEY UNDER FALSE
PRETENSES, AND FOR
MEN IN OFFICIAL POSI
TIONS TO PAY SALARIES
TO SUCH MEN IS MISAP
PROPRIATION OF TRUST
FUNDS. AND SUCH MEN
AND SUCH OFFIC I A L S
OUGHT TO HAVE THE MAN
HOOD TO RESIGN THEIR
POSITIONS. AND IF THEY
WILL N'OT RESIGN, THE
GREAT COMMON PEOPLE
SHOULD NEVER LET UP
UNTIL THEY ARE PUT
OUT.
But if the different religious
bodies will continue to be led
by the noses by some of their
official leaders, and will not
protect their children from this
insidious, deadly curse, then the
voters, as citizens, the Jew, the
Christian, the decent infidel
who is not an anarchist, should
see to it that Evolution is driv
en from our tax-supported
schools, that the Religious
Liberty of the people is pro
tected, that the Constitution of
the United Staes is upheld.
AND THEY WILL.

that mighty giant of the far

How the Evolutionists will
grate their' teeth and squirm!
Let ’em squirm! They have been
parading around and saying
that “all scientists believe in
Evolution”, and calling all who
expose them “ignoramuses” and
“asses”; now we are going to
hold their feet to the fire.
The old negro pastor met
the old negro family doctor

The old doctor replied, in a

These Evolutionists have for

“IS THE BIBLE THE WORD
OF GOD?” Is discussed each
month by Dr. F. E. Marsh,
the well known Bible Teacher,
Author, and Editor of “The
Prophetic Witness,” of London.
This series of articles alone is
worth much more than the sub

to any believer who desires to
be fully fortified in the fight
in defense of the faith.
THE MOST CONSISTENT
AND CON STRUCTIVE
METHOD for teachers and
preachers is to take some one
book of the Bible and go
through it systematically and
consecutively. In this way,
every doctrinal subject is cover
ed just as presented in the
Scriptures. Every issue of
The King’s Business contains
such a Book Study, by the edi
tor, the Book of Jude (which
is so full of warnings and so
applicable to the times in Vv^hich
we live) being studied now.

There was recently unveiled with
solemn ceremony, in a New York

“The Crysalis.” Since Satan imi

be called “The Modernist Madonna.”
It is the image of a youth coming
