SHOOTS Bj»CK AT THE METHODIST
Rev. Co.Hsey Replies to Criticism
of Mis Views on the Fuss
Over Children’s Day.
To The Newark Journal.
I ar»i at a loss to know from
whence came “A Methodist1 in
last week’s Journal. 1 cannot
call himO) brother or sister, male
or female, so I will have to guess
what the “thing'1 is.
According to St John the wind
bio.veth vvhoie it lMeth and thou
lieare-t tiic sound thereof, but
canst in>t tell whence it cometh,
nor whit her it goeth.
This looks like sneaking in and
taking tie- M. H. preacher’s job,
and tie1 u afraid to be known. If
I had writ ten and shown such a
sto.y heat t its the one who refused
to sign up. 1 would not come out
in the light, and let the people
know who I am. Sure 1 would
not sneak into something that 1
could not lace. Methodist said
that after it had all been forgotten
then comes J F Cossoy, not with
the authority of the Creator when
He said “let there be light.” 1
say it had not been forgotten, and
that I have the authority to bring
about light upon the recitation.
No, I do n >t want to era n it down
any one's throat, and if I did I
could not cram it down that per f
son’s whose heart is full of deceit,
and who makes fun of God’s com
mands when his children obey him
in Baptism that shows forth his
death, burial and resurrection.
Says we go to Dot a and crawl in a
hole where the hogs have just va
cated. Is not that trying to pour
on oil him! kindle the find Isn’t
that nice for one who claims to be
a child of God, to make light of
God’s work and commands( The
Baptists do not crawl into a hole
to he baptiz *d, but they are not
ashamed to walk in and obey the
commands of their Master. Some
of the Methodists tell me they
were baptized in the same place.
He with all his yall. bitterness,
envy and prejudice in his heart
throws this at the Baptists What
Your being
married
is another big reason
for buying
You won’t have to
buy another pair so
soon!
They have the style,
shape and poise which
never wear out!
And the patent “Urfit.”

“JUST AS LAST ! **
GRIFFITH & MORROW
will the Methodist people do with j
this thing, who is making light of
their baptism? This thing says
you were baptized where the hogs
had just vacated. By their ex- |
pression some of them do not like
the impression made by the broth
er Methodist.
He says my understanding must
be dull to misconstrue simple illus
trations. I did not misconstrue,
but stated the facts. He said the
Baptists were a low class. We do
not deny that Christ was meek
and lowly. I do not say that I
only understood it that way, but
they understood it that way
Methodists, Baptists, Presbyter
ians and Christians.
The thing claims I do not under
stand the Bible on the point of
baptism. Come on with your
| scriptural quotations and sign
j your name if you are not ashamed.
Why did he not answer the scrip
tures in my first article? He
knows he cannot answer them,
and this probably accounts for his
refusal to sign up. Unless he
does he is beneath my notice here
after. I have no time to throw
stones at red headed birds in the
brush, when we have them in view.
Methodist said I should give them
credit for Being sincere. 1 do not
think he is sincere in his denial
he who would make light of God’s
commands could not be sincere in
anything I am not trying to
force any one to admit that the
recitation was right which started
the strife. I endorse, he rejects
it. He cannot condemn it with
“Thus saith the Word.” Metho
dist said that I tried to make it ap
pear that we had to be plunged
under, I did not say this, but if he
got this meaning from the scrip
ture I quoted it is good. He re
ferred to the case of Cornelius.
If he can prove that they were
sprinkled he should do so.
It looks nice in him after hard
things have been said about the
Baptists, after they have been of
fended, and they have begun to
pour the truth in that conderns,
then to jump up and throw up his
puny arms and say “Peace; be
still.” Does he suppose that we,
as a persecuted people ought to
obey?
Hoping this will bring the thing
out of the brush and do no one
any harm but do them good, I am.
Yours for the truth,
Rev. .1. F. Cossky.
