Baptist churches everywhere will
have sermons next Sunday on tho
doctrines of their faith. The above
subject and text have been selected
with this in view. 1t will not only
serve as the basis for discussing the
faith of Baptist churches, but the
basis for church and Christian unity
as well, because it is evident that if
all churches would agree upon the

division now obtains.
