member of their church Is inspired of
God to interpret the Scriptures, thus
making every one of both sexes minis
tiers of the gospel. Il is not uncommon
for women to preach among them An
other fayorite dogma is that they consti-
tute the only true followers of God, and
that all other denominations are heading
straight for the devil. They believe in
immersion, but that it must be admins
tered by one of their communion to be of
any avail. They
REJECT THE OLD TESTAMENT
entirely, and receive only such portions of
the New Testament as suit their purpose,
rejecting any passages that are opposed
to their peculiar beliefs as uninspired.
They claim that the observance of the
Sabbath was abrogated along with the
Levitical law, and
HENCE REJECT SUNDAY
as day TO be observed in the worship of
God. They perform ordinary work on
Sunday, or engage in any sports that
they desire, and have been seen fiddling
and dancing on that day. They believe
in the damnatioR of the infants of
unbelieving, i. e.. /, non-Boylite parents,
who die in infancy. They believe in
the social equality of the races. AS
rule, dense ignorance prevails where they
flourish. A man who once taught
school in neighborhood where they now
claim the majority of the people as their
adherents, SAID that only two of the
sixty pupils in his school knew their let
tiers when they first came to him. Gen
orally they will not permit minister of
the gospel to read the scriptures or en-
gage in prayer in their houses; and if
they concede that much to him, they
laugh and talk while he prays and pay no
attention whatever to him.
