they are Christians who seem to get along

There are SO many things in this world
that take my attention from God. and

helps of all the symbols and of all the
Christian associations; and want around
about me a solid phalanx of men who
love God and keep his commandments.

enter into that association? Then By a

Baptism does not amount to anything.

is baptized shall be saved,' putting bap-
tism and faith side by side. And an
apostle declares: Repent and be bap-
tized, every one of you" I do not
sickle for any particular mode of bap-
tism, but put great emphasis on the
fact that you ought to be baptized. Yet
no more emphasis than the Lord Jesus
Christ, the great head of the churcf.
puts upon it.
