THE YOUNG PEOPLE'S SOCIETIES


T HE first young people's society so far as known, was organized by Rev. P. B. Hough- wout in the early part of his pastorate, and was named by him the "Eumathetic Society." The society conducted a Sunday evening prayer service preceding the regular preaching service, and was lead by a member appointed permanently for that purpose. John Cadwell, Alfred Jenks and A. Frank Jenks conducted the meetings at different times. Frequent socials were also held under the auspices of the society. After Dr. Peltz's pastorate and dur- ing the long vacancy that followed, the society went down. When Dr. Harvey became pastor, he reorganized the young people into a society which was named the "Adelphians," and was conducted much as the "Eumathetics" had been, except that a committee, of which Dr. Harvey was chairman, prepared topics for the Sunday evening prayer meetings, each quarter in advance, and assigned a member to each topic, who led the meeting for that evening. Another long interval between pastorates brought the "Adelphians" to death's door.


Dr. Waffle perceived the need for a society that would put the young people of the church to work for the Master, and he therefore called a meeting at his home on January 4, 1889, for the purpose of or- ganizing a Young People's Society of Christian En- deavor, resulting in the perfecting of that organiza- tion. Herve W. Georgi was elected president, and Walter H. Tenny, vice president. Active among


125


the leaders of the movement was Charles B. White, the secretary of the Y. M. C. A., who had a power- ful influence for good among the young people and created a spirit of Bible study, and Christian work not only among our members but in the other so- cieties of young people throughout the city.


Through his instrumentality a society was form- ed from the various organizations in the city, which met for a week each summer for Bible study and recreation at Maple Springs and Bemus Point. This organization was kept up for three or four years and one year was led by S. D. Gordon, after- wards an evangelist of great power who was also a contributor to the Sunday School Times. Aside from the power for righteousness of our pastors, no one has done more to build up the young people of the city in Christian activity, or who will be longer remembered by those who felt the inspiration of his life, than C. B. White. Soon after Mr. White's un- timely death in 1891, the Bible study society discon- tinued.


At first elections were held every six months and the prayer meetings were on Friday evenings. The society grew and prospered for several years, but there was some dissatisfaction with the Young Peo- ple's Society of Christian Endeavor pledge and in the year 1891 it was, voted to change it to Baptist Young People's Union. During that time the old church was torn down and the new church built, and the young people met on Tuesday evening in the Congregational Church parlors. Under the


126


new organization as Baptist Young People's Union, the elections were held annually instead of semi- annually and the prayer meetings changed to Sun- day evenings. B. H. Giffin was the first president under the new organization and served one year. Soon after he left the city and later entered the U.S. Army as a member of the Hospital Corps. While stationed in Cuba, just at the close of the Spanish- American War, he was taken with Tetanus and died.


In 1893, Minnie Hegeman was elected president and served two years, and the society then reached the zenith of its career. As many as thirty mem- bers were received at one meeting and at one time it could boast of having $101.51 in the treasury. Many new plans were inaugurated. The annual banquet was originated and consecration meetings were held every second month. The Christian cul- ture courses were also conducted during this time and the periodical missionary meetings begun. In 1893 delegates were sent to the Baptist Young Peo- ple's Union Convention at Toronto, and again in 1895 to the Convention at Baltimore, and in the latter year the society paid $100 on the church debt. A. E. Anderson represented the society in the Con- vention at Milwaukee in 1896. No delegate was sent to the convention the next year, but it was voted to assist one of the members at the North- field School. In 1898 a lecture and concert course was conducted through the efforts of the President, S. B. Burchard. A junior society was also organ-


127


ized, with Edna Doubleday Superintendent and Bessie Goldthwait and Helen Clark, assistants, which did a successful work for several years.


The society began the new century by joining in a union convention of the young people of the city held in the Swedish M. E. Church, and presided over by S. D. Gordon. That same year it also raised the money and purchased a new piano for its own use and for the Sunday School.


Delegates were sent to the convention at Cin- cinnati, O., in 1901, and to the convention at Provi- dence, R. I., in 1902.


In 1906 a union society was formed from the various young people's societies of the city for the purpose of enforcing the law in regard to Sabbath desecration and some beneficial results were ob- tained.

THE BAPTIST FAITH


I T is not our purpose in this article to prove the correctness of the Baptist Faith, or to point out the errors in any other faith. Our aim is simply to state as briefly and concisely as possible what the Baptist Church has stood for and what it stands for today.


Passing over those great fundamental principles of Christianity held in common by all evangelical Christian churches, principles concerning which there can scarcely be any disagreement among thinking and reasonable men who believe in God, we purpose to speak only of those distinctive doc- trines of the church, those questions of faith which mark the parting of the ways,-the Baptists from all other creeds.


Foremost and at the foundation of the distinctive Baptist doctrines is that of the "Supreme Authority of the Scriptures" over and above the authority of tradition, or any council, church, board of bishops or other ecclesiastical body, on all questions con- cerning which they assume to speak with authority, and therefore ought to be obeyed by the church and all members thereof. In other words, this doctrine implies strict obedience to the divine will as reveal- ed in the Scriptures, both as to principles and con- duct and as to ordinances established.


The reverse of this doctrine was early promul- gated by the Roman Catholic Church and is still held by it today. Most Protestant Churches as


129


they have evolved from that church or some of its off-shoots, have in general discarded the doctrine that the decrees of the Church were supreme, but have not all together rid themselves of it. They still retain it in some minor particular.


Upon the Baptist doctrine of the supremacy of the Scriptures, hang practically all other doctrines which may be said to be distinctively Baptist. It is true that most Baptist churches have held, and now hold doctrines in common with other evan- gelical churches, other than those great principles first alluded to and which do not depend on this so- called cardinal doctrine, but such doctrines have never been considered essentially or distinctively Baptist.


The foregoing distinctive and fundamental doc- trine logically leads to a second distinctive Baptist principle, to-wit: "The Scriptures Constitute the only necessary or Reliable Creed." And the Bap- tist church has often been called the "creedless" church. The individual churches have usually adopted articles setting forth their interpretation of the Scriptures, but these are never imposed upon a person seeking membership. In such cases appli- cants are always referred to the Scriptures, and the test applied is their belief in, and willingness to fol- low them.


A third Baptist principle is that the "Church is not a Worldly but a Spiritual Body." That is, it is composed exclusively of regenerated members, and that none should be received into the visible church


130


except upon evidence of such regeneration. This doctrine has ceased to be distinctively Baptist, since most evangelical churches now hold the same doc- trine. In the early history of our country, how- ever, it was bitterly contested. Its acceptance by other Protestant churches furnishes a gratifying evidence that the churches are gradually drawing together and coming into closer harmony and Christian fellowship.


A fourth principle is that the "Church and State should be Independent, each of the Other," so long as there shall be two classes in the state, one re- generative and the other unregenerate.


And a fifth principle, closely allied thereto, is that of "Personal Religious or Soul Liberty." Not only should the church be free from the jurisdiction of the state, and the state of the church, but the in- dividual should be free from both, to the extent that he be allowed to worship according to the dic- tates of his own conscience.


These two doctrines have also ceased to be ex- clusively Baptist, but were such in Colonial times. Their general acceptance and final incorporation into the constitution of the United States was a great triumph for the Baptist Denomination, and a tribute to the wisdom and accumen in Scriptural interpretation, of our earliest American Baptist minister, Roger Williams. The acceptance of these doctrines was further, and even greater proof of the honesty of Christian thought in this country,


131


and of the desire for practical Christian unity and fellowship.


The Sixth Principle which we will name has to do with the form of baptism and hangs largely up- on the meaning of a Greek word, a question, there- fore, of scholarship. The Baptists have contended that the word Baptizo in the Greek Testament means solely to dip or to immerse, and that "Scrip- tural Form of Baptism, and the Apostolic Practice of Baptism was always Immersion." And the Bap- tists have won. For now all Greek scholars of what- ever creed, and secular scholars as well, who are at all considered authority, agree that the point has been well taken. Other Christian organizations, however, do not require applicants for church mem- bership to be immersed, but continue to leave the form optional. While therefore agreeing with the Baptists as to the form, they do not regularly prac- tice the use of that form. Such non-conformity is due to the non-acceptance in its entirety, of the first distinctive cardinal principle of the Baptists as herein stated. In this one particular at least they hold that the decree of the church supercedes, and is superior or at least equal to, the authority of the Scriptures.


It is this practice of strict baptism that has given to the Baptist denomination its name. We never gave ourselves the name, though willing to accept it. It was applied to the denomination by other Christian sects. Our name should have embodied our prime distinctive principle, but the ordinance


132


of baptism being always administered publicly, our views concerning it have been more widely known and understood than any other doctrine, and there- fore the popular name.


A Seventh Principle has reference to the qualifi- cations of the candidate for baptism, which we hold should only be administered to applicants "Upon Their Faith in the Christ as their only Saviour." The Scriptures taken as a whole seem to be clear upon this point. Some passages, however, when isolated from their connections and references, can be made to appear as requiring this ordinance as a means of salvation, and so early in the Christian era, the Roman Church so held, and required the baptism of infants before they came to an age when they could experience faith. The Baptists have never held that doctrine. But have taken the seem- ingly Scriptural view, that children too young to exercise faith in a Saviour, can not willfully sin, and for them the blood of the Crucified Lord is suffi- cient, without the exercise of personal faith, to blot out all inherited sinful tendency and all unintention- al sin.


In the practice of infant baptism, some hold to the Roman Catholic view, while others take the view that the faith of the parent or guardian stands for the faith of the child, while others regard infant baptism simply as a consecration of the child to the Lord.


The Baptists do not believe that the faith of one person can avail for another according to the Scrip-


133


tures. And while they believe that the consecra- tion of the child is a commendable act, they object to the use of the ordinance prescribed for a be- liever's consecration of himself, and for his en- trance into the visible church, for the consecration of an infant, as yet an unbeliever, by another per- son, and long before membership in the visible church can be possible. The Baptist view is that baptism is not a saving ordinance, but is a com- mand, and a test of obedience, and that the form was selected to illustrate the changes which had previously taken place in the spiritual life of the be- liever.


The Eighth Principle, commonly known as the doctrine of "close communion," is now causing more friction with other denominations than any other. More properly stated it is the doctrine that None but baptized believers are entitled to come to the Lord's Table, and we use the word "baptize" in its strict Scriptural sense. In principle the Baptists are no more "close communion" than most of the other evangelical churches. The principle recognized by all is that those only who have qualified for full membership on confession of faith and by submit- ting to the proper ordinance for such church mem- bership, should partake of the sacrament. The dif- ference in practice as to communion results from the difference in practice as to baptism.


The Baptists have believed that their position was the logical Scriptural one, following the first principle herein enunciated, together with the two


134


last preceding. And many non-Baptist Christian scholars have concurred in our reasoning, and have stated that if our position was correct as to the "supremacy of the Scriptures," and as to "baptism," it necessarily followed that it was also correct as to communion.


In all the distinctive Baptist doctrines herein pre- viously named the Baptists have won out, or at least have more than held their own. In this doc- trine we, as a denomination, have been slowly yielding to the influence of others. The position which this church has taken in later years, is that communion is a personal matter to be settled be- tween the communicant and his God. "Examine yourselves whether ye be in the faith." "Let a man examine himself, and so let him eat * * * and drink."


One other principle may be said to be peculiar to Baptists, though not held by them exclusively,- the principle of "Congregational Government." The government that recognizes the personal in- dependence of every individual church, and of every member in the church. Where the individual church is governed only by a majority of its own members, and as to its internal affairs, can not be disciplined, punished, or regulated, by any minister, priest, bishop, pope, council, association or conven- tion.

CHURCH MEMBERSHIP


It would be too much to hope that the following comila- tion of the church roll covering the period of its entire his- tory, should prove to be correct. At times the records have been so carelessly kept that it is practically impossible to make a correct list of the names of the members. However, much time and patience have been expended in the effort and no apology is offered for the result.


The numeral appearing before each name represents the year of entry into the church, and the numeral following is the year in which the membership terminated the last time, for many of the people were members more than once. The * before a name signified that the member entered the church by baptism.
