The Close Communion Tenet.
SPIRITED Defence of Open Communion by
Rev. Drs. PentecOst and Smith

New YORK, Oct. 1S.-lt appears that on
Wednesday afternoon, after many delegates had
left the convention of Baptsts, and after the
passage of the resolution telegraphed yesterday
a resolution was introduced appointing a com
mittee of five to investigate the proceedings of
Rev. DrS. Hyatt Smith and George Pentecost
and report whether they, as pastors Of two
churches in Brooklyn, had departed from the
practices of the ordinances Of the gospel as fol
lowed by the churches belonging to the Long
Island Baptist associations. Although the above
resolution was sprung upon the remaining
members of the association, a number of mem
bers were advised in season to defer their de-
parture and join in the debate upon the issue.
Rev. DR.. Sarles took the ground that the ac.
tons OF the pastors Of the Lee avenue and Han
son street place churches IN regard to open com
munion should be investigated. He held that
the true Baptist doctrine was that of close com
munion, and he could not conceive of any
occasion when that principle should he set
aside.
DR.. Pentecost of the Hanson place church re-
piled, stating that no article of faith had ever
been intringed in the Temotest degree by that
church or by him tits pastor) by no public act
or word. So long as he was its pastor he would
live up to the laws of the church, although per-
sonally he II light doubt the wisdom of the laws.
The act upon which the rumorS against the
church were founded, was a private personal
act OF his own, (referrng to the administering
of communion to a dying person at that per-
sons request) He said that the association
might appoint their committee of investigation,
hut reminded them that the independence and
freedom of the Baptist churches were more pro.
verbal than their adherence to the doctrine Of
close communion, and it was very doubtful
whether the committee, if appointed, would be
admitted to his church Tor them to submit to
any catechizng. For himself he would preach
the gospel according to his convictions upon
street corner or an open common rather than
contend for place or position
DIR. Hyatt Smith followed in the same strain,
endorsing DR.. Pentecost, and said that his
(Smiths) church stood upon what is called the
New Hamspire confession of faith, and therein
found ample room and range. He recognized
baptism by immersion as the accredited door to
the church, and would (?not) admit persons to
the Lords supper who had not been baptized.
He said that on.that ground vast numbers of the
church stand, and there was no use TO shut their
eyes to the fact. The churches are independ-
ent, and he denied the right of the association to
erect itself into an ecclesiastical council. After
a long and rambling discussion by several of the
lay members the resolution was tabled, which
finally disposes of the subject, being triumph
Of the open communists.
