SAYS CHURCH IS
A DISTINCT BODY
Rev. c. A. Decker Points Out
Why it is Triumphant to
Present Day.

Rev. 7. J. Parsons, pastor Of the
Quincy Street Baptist church,
preached at the First Baptist church
Sunday morning in the absence Of
Rev. G. A. Decker He spoke on
the subject THE Church Triumph
ant" The minister explained the
meaning of the word church" and
called attention TO the fact that the
first place the word is found in the
Bible is Matthew 1918. Upon this
rock / will build Ny church; and
the gates Of hell shall not prevail
against it,"
In speaking on his subject DR..
Parsons said:
The church is distinct from every
other institution on earth. for in its
origin it is divine; its constituency
is made up of persons regenerated
by the spirit of God; and its dis
tinctive mission is TO preach the
gospel and win disciples for Jesus
Christ. There are many other in
stitutions which are doing a good
work. but the church is distinct
from all in these unique particulars,
and ought not 70 be compared with
them.
Never Apologize.
The true church never assumes
an apologize attitude. but declares
the truth without fear or favor,
neither asking for nor expecting the
friendship Of the world; il never
begs for the privilege OF existence
I'm any community, whether civilized
or pagan. but IL exists there because
il has a divine right to live. The
power and aggressiveness of the
apostolic church is the marvel Of
the age. for in 325 years il grew
from an insignificant handful of be-
levers 10 be recognized as a domi-
nant religion. Frequently the ques-
ton is asked. what was the secret
of the church's power in those
days? No doubt many things con-
tributed 10 make the church tri-
umphant, but ! wish TO point out a
few which were great factors then
and without which no church at any
time can be triumphant and pros
porous in the true spiritual sense.
The Apostle church had a recog-
nized standard Of authority-the
Holy Bible. They believed il 10
be divinely inspired and of abso-
lutte authority in matters of morality
and religion; it was to them a SUI
preme court beyond which there
was no appeal. IL was church of
one Book, and that Book was not
only believed. but it was studied,
preached and lived. The sermons
of the apostles were intensely Bib
Hcal. as a study of the Book of
Acts will prove. We need to get
back 10 the Bible itself, instead of
using II merely as a book from
which to take a text.
Recognize Supreme Source.
The Apostolic church also rec
ognized a supreme source Of
strength "a prayer-hearing God.

cannot but be impressed with the
amount of time He gave TO prayer
