PRESBYTERIANS INVESTIGATE
UNIONS THEOLOGY AGAIN

! Great interest Is shown in Presbyterian
| circles over the possible admission OF
Union Theological Seminary, New York,
| to the Presbyterian Church. special
committee Of the General Assembly Of
| this church has requested that Union
Seminary make a statement setting forth
its beliefs, especially that it is in har-
mony with the Presbyterian Church on
the fundamentals Of Christian faith. The
interest in the forthcoming statement ex-
tends to all other denominations besides
| the Presbyterian, for 1t is expected that
the controversial questions will be touched
| upon, such as the authority of the Scrip
lures the deity of Christ, bodily resur-
rection, and the doctrine OF the atone
ment.
Union Seminary has for years been .
storm center. The critical views have
obtained Whether the General Assembly
in it's efforts for union is prepared to
accept the statement Of the seminary Is
a matter of conjecture. Since both sides
Of the contention are in a number OF
views widely apart, it is said to be diff
cult to modify any statement so that 1t
will be acceptable to both. The COM
mittees Of work on this proposition.
which is likely to become a historical
event. expect to report to the next meet
ing Of the General Assembly in May at
Atlanta.
On the committee on the part of the
assembly are Rev. Drs. John F. Carson.
David G. Wylie, and John r. Davies. and
on the part of the seminary President
Francis Brown, Rev. DR.. Thomas G..
Hall, and Robert c. Ogden. the philan-
thropist, who is president of Union
Seminary's board of trustees.
DIR. Wilton Merle-Smith, long the pas
tor of Grover Cleveland, preached q
memorial and dedication sermon in First
Church, Caldwell, N. j., in connection
with the conservation of the manse or
that congregation. where President
Cleveland was born, to the Grover Cleve-
historic center.
The Presbyterians, the Disciples OF
Christ, and the Methodist churches at
Nankin, China, are to join forces for
the training Of Chinese ministry. The
men whom they train will be the repre-
sentatives of these three denominations
as they preach the Gospel among the
1Oo, 1000 600 people in four provinces. 1t
is expected that within the next ten
years they will be able to send from
this school 400 preachers equipped to
carry to their own people the Gospel
message. Each cooperating denomina-
ton is given an opportunity to teach
its doctrines and discipline to it's own
students by means Of electives in the
course. 1t is a notable fact. however,
that the students from each denomina-
ton are anxious to study the doctrine
and discipline of other denominations.
Hence our Methodist missionary, Harry
r. Rowe, il teaching the Methodist dis.
cipline to the Presbyterians and the
Methodist students are studying the
Presbyterian confession Of faith. This
illustrates the way in which the idea or
union and cooperation is taking hold
of the Chinese.
