Heresy.

Rev. G. A. Briggs who has been
a Professor in Union Theological
Seminary in N. Y. City for 20 years
has been pronounced a hereto by
our late General Assembly though
he had been previously acquitted
CT heresy by the most distinguished
Presbytery in the Presbyterian
Church. He was elected Professor
in that Seminary, continued in it
by a Board of Trustees of 90 men
whose orthodoxy no man ever
questioned. Such men as compose
that Board would never continue
any man in any chair in that
Seminary whose views in theology
was heretical.
The question is not whether
Prof.Briggs held to erroneous views
upon some points in theology,
but was his views so unscriptural
and so contrary to the doctrines OF
the Presbyterian Church as to
constitute him q hereto? The law
of the Presbyterian Church is,
"Nothing shall be the object OF
judicial process, which cannot be
proven to be contrary to the Holy
Scriptures or to the regulations and
practice of the church founded
thereon"
This law does not bind minister
to every statement of the confess
sion of Faith! he adopts as his
creed the system of doctrine taught
in the Holy Scriptures as embraced
in that confession. He is at liberty
to dissent from the language of the
confession if he finds it unsupport-
ed by the Scriptures. The doctrine

Briggs the question was does he
hold the doctrines taught in the
confession of Faith of the Presby-
terrain Church. Our confession OF
cource makes the Holy Scriptures
the foundation of our faith and
practice. Prof. Briggs was charged
with denying this. He always
has most unequiocally affirmed
his belief in the infallibility Of
Holy Scriptures given by divine
inspiration, in order to save 6
fallen race; but because he also
taught that reason and the church

he was charged with setting aside
Holy Scripture as most necessary
to salvation. His belief is thai

Worcester Spy: Some of the
newspapers are urging people not
to 60 to The Fir in Chicago till
June and July, because all the ex-
hibits are not yet in place. But
why wait, when already more than
100000 exhibits are in place
Walking at five-mile gait it will
take thirty hours, or three days,
for one to get over the $50 miles of
walks that run through the $50
acres of the fair grounds. How
is the man who wants to see more
going to see all unless he gives the
summer to it. If he allows a min
ute to each exhibit it will take him
100 days, six hours and forty minutes
to get through the list. 1t is a six
mile walk through the main aisles
of the manufactures building alone,
and if he fingers as he goes he
might give several weeks to this
one feature of the show. He won't
care to miss the art gallery where
there are so many pictures that il
they were placed in continuous
line they would extend a little
more than six miles, and only five
minutes to each picture would use
up 400 hours, or forty days of ten
hours. 1t is quite evident that the
advice to wait is ill-timed. Better
go as soon as possible. and gel
ahead of the croud. There is
enough tc see now to tire an ordi.
nary person before he has been in
Chicago a week.
