United Presbyterian Differences Remain
A UNITED PRESBYTERIAN writes to the Christian at Work from Colorado protesting against the statement that the action of the Presbytery of Detroit, of the United Presbyterian Church, uniting with the Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church, was made probable, indeed, almost inevitable, from the repealing by the United Presbyterian General Assembly of the prohibition against the use of the organ. He says: "While the General Assembly has repealed the rule against the use of organs, yet that by no means takes away all the differences between this church and the Presbyterian. This was the least of the differences. The principal issues now separating the two churches are the use of a scriptural psalmody, the opposition to secret oath-bound societies, and restricted communion, in opposition to what is known as open communion."
