Preamble and Resolution on TESTS Of
Church Fellowship.
Whereas the Scriptures constitute the
only rule Of conduct for Christians and
Crislian churches; and whereas, it is evil
dent in the Scriptures that Churches are
independent bodies, having no Head but
Christ, and no Law but his revealed will;
whereas, they have no right or authority
10 censure or excommunicate any but their
own members; and whereas, the Constitu-
tions of the Baptist General Convention of
the United States, the American Baptist
Home Missionary Society, and the Ameri-
can and Foreign Bible Society require the
officers and managers Of those institutions
to be "brethren in good standing of Bup-
tist churches in general union with the
Denomination and whereas disposi
tion has been manifested to introduce new
tests Of good standing aud fellowship, un-'
known TO the denomination generally,
when said Constitutions were adopted; and
whereas, the announcement Of disfellow
ship on the basis Of such ne1o tests is now
creating embarrassment and alienation a
mong those who have been untedin bonds
of frateruaI love for many years, and hith
erto have delightfully."- co-operaed in the
holy enterprise Of disseminating the truth
Of God, through these organizations: there
fore
Resolued, Tha, the undersigned deem
it their duty and privilege 10 record their
full conviction, that no new tests, Nunau-
thorized by the Scri ptures, and by the
established usages Of the great body of our
churches, should be suffered to interfere
with The harmonious operation of these
benevolent Associations, as originally con-
stilued; and therefore they embrace this
fitting occasion to express their decided dis
appreciation OF all such tests, believing them
TO have;a direct tendency 10 part asunder
those who have zone Lord, one Faith, one
Baptism;" and above all they invade the
prerogative Of Jesus Christ, the one and
only Legislator or the churches of the
