Moody has raised little tempest Of
wrath by his administration of the
Lords Supper at Mortified. The
congregational pastor was absent, and
Moody took his place. The invitation
was exceedingly broad. Mr.. Moody
said: "No matter what church YOU
belong to, or if you belong to none at
all, come. We make no restrictions.
Let us now break bread, without word
or comment" A number of the Bap-
fists have found fault with him for
this. and also some of the other persua-
sions who strongly believe that none
but an ordained minister should ad-
minister the communion. Their wrath
does net disturb Brother Moody at all.
