A Better Way.

By Editor

There seems to be a general stirring up of the Protestant denominations against Roman Catholicism. The general assembly of the Southern Presbyterian Church meeting in Bristol, Tennessee, May 23, according to a despatch in the Portland Oregonian of May 24, met the issue in this way: A minority report presented "a plan of attack on Catholicism by the evangelical churches of the United States and Canada, and the establishment of a fund to support converts from among the priests." This report was submitted by Judge Allen G. Hall, of Nashville, but withdrawn in favor of a resolution by Dr. R. C. Reed, of Columbia, South Carolina, unanimously adopted, as follows:

"That in meeting the menace of Romanism this assembly would recommend no other means than the dissemination of knowledge and the faithful, earnest preaching of the gospel of Christ."

And that is sensible. It is the only thing in this world that will meet any of these heresies — the clear, straightforward preaching of the gospel of Christ as revealed in the Word of God.
