ROMISH MISSION TO
pROTTlSTAN TS.

CDR. James Cannon. Jr.. In Christian
AdvoCate.)
For the past ten days or two weeks.
the Roman Catholics have been con-
Quoting a Mission at the Cathedral in
Richmond The secular press an
pounccd that the Mission was being
held for Protestants; that is. TO ex-
plain the doctrines of the Roman
Catholic Church 10 Protesiants. and
if possible To bring them from the
Protestant to the Roman Catholic
faith
Zeal Comlnendable.
The editor has no criticism of the
Roman Catholic Church for holding
these Missions. If he believed what
these Roman Catholic priests prea h,
he would hold such Missions and Prob
ably more frequently and insistently
than the priests do. The doctrines
they proclaim are so fundamentally
contrary to the doctrines of Methodiam
and of Professionalism generally that
one who sincerely believes them is
under obligation to try to open the
eyes of the deluded Protestants and
TO save them from tho ruin which
awaits them.
But if these Paultat fathers "a the
Roman Catholic prca cheers are called,
testants. and al those meetings dis
cuss, expound, teach and emphasize
doctrines which are considered by
Protestants as contrary to The teach
Ing Of the Word of God, subversive
OF the foundation of the real Christian
faith. and calculated to disturb the
present belief of those who are I'M
wary and unlearned then it Ia clearly
the duty of those who have the care
Of souls to warn their people against
the teaching of theser Paulist fathers,
and to show that such teaching has
no foundation in Gods Word
Protestants Should Also Discuss
But strange to say when Protesta Mt
ministers discuss the peculiar tenets
of the Roman Catholic Church IN their
pulpits. or in the press. when they
snow how contrary To Gods Word
such teaching is, and what effect the
adoption of distnctlvely Romish doc
trines have upon the heart life and
the practical conduct of the great ma
jority of those who profess them. there
Is condemnation of such preaching
IN various quarters 1t Is said that
such preachers are contentious, un-
charitable and stirrers up of strife.
Suppose any Methodist minister in
Richmond were to announce that he
was going to hold Mission especially
for Roman Catholics. to teach them
the true doctrines Of Methodism, and
10 prove to them that Methodism is
right. and therefore Romanism is
wrong, what would Roman Catholics
doP How many priests. or how many
members Of the Roman Catholic
Church would attend such a mission,
and what would be the attitude Of tho
press and of the general pusic to-
ward suca mission"
Plausible Preaching
The editor has not had any oppor-
tunity to attend this special Mission.
