The Disciples as a Denomination

The Independent says: “If we call the Disciples a denomination, we must be pardoned, for we do not know what else to call them. . . . And they have a name by which they are denominated, as a denomination. They are Disciples in a sense in which other Christians are not disciples of Christ.” In the same article it says again, in speaking of the Disciples with the Christian connection: “Both are pronounced denominations that deny that they are denominations, the only evidence that they are not such being in their names.” And this is true.
