At the outset we affirm and declare our acceptance of the Westminster Confession of Faith, as we did at our ordinations, “as containing the system of doctrine taught in the Holy Scriptures.” We sincerely hold and earnestly preach the doctrines of evangelical Christianity, in agree- ment with the historic testimony of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, of which-we are loyal ministers. For the maintenance of the faith of our. church, the preservation of its unity, and the protection of the liberties of its ministers -and people, we offer this Affirmation. | I. By its law and its history, the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America safeguards the liberty of thought and teaching of its ministers. At their ordina- tions they “receive and adopt the Confession of Faith of this Church, as containing the system of doctrine taught in the. Holy Scriptures.” This the church has always esteemed a sufficient doctrinal subscription for its ministers. Manifestly it does not require their assent to the very words of the Confession, or to all of its teachings, or to interpre- tations of the Confession by individuals or church courts. The Confession of Faith itself disclaims infallibility. Its authors would not allow this to church councils, their own included: “All synods or councils since the apostles’ times, whether general or particular, may err, and many have erred; therefore they are not to be made the rule of faith or practice, but to be used as a help in both”. (Conf. XXXI, iii). The Confession also expressly asserts the lib- erty of Christian believers, and condemns the submission of the mind or conscience to any human authority: “God alone is lord of the conscience, and hath left it free from the doctrines and commandments of men which are in any- thing contraty to his Word, or beside it, in matters of faith or worship. So that to believe such doctrines, or to obey such commandments out of conscience, is to bet:ay true . liberty of conscience; and the requiring of an implicit faith, and an absolute and blind obedience, is to destroy lib- erty of conscience, and reason also.” (Conf. XX, ii). mall Yo (2) concerning the interpretation of the Scriptures - The formal relation of American Presbyterianism to the Westminster Confession of Faith begins in the Adopting Act of 1729. This anticipated and provided for dissent by individuals from portions of the Confession. At the forma- tion of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, in 1788, the Westminster Confession was adopted as. the creed of the church; and at the same time the church publicly declared the significance of its organization in a document which contains these words: “There are truths and forms, with respect to which men of good characters. and principles may differ. And in all these they think it the duty, both of private Christians and Societies, to exer- cise mutual forbearance towards each other”. (Declaration of Principles, v). Of the two parts into which our church was separated from 1837 to 1870, one held that only one interpretation of certain parts of the Confession of Faith was legitimate, while the other maintained its right to dissent from this interpretation. In-the Reunion of 1870 they came together on equal terms, “each recognizing the other as.a sound and orthodox body.” ‘The meaning of this, as understood then and ever since, is that office-bearers in the church who maintain their liberty in the interpretation of the Confes- ' sion are exercising their rights guaranteed by the terms of the Reunion. A more recent reunion also is significant, that of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church and the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, in 1906. - This reunion was opposed by certain members of the Presby- terian Church in the United States of America, on the ground that the two churches were not at one in doctrine; yet it was consummated. Thus did our church once more exemplify its historic policy of accepting theological differ- ences within its bounds and subordinating them to recog- nized loyalty to Jésus Christ and united work for the king- dom of God. With respect to the interpretation of the Scriptures the position of our church has been that common to Protest- ants. “The Supreme Judge,” says the Confession of Faith, “by whom all controversies of religion are to be determined, and all decrees of councils, opinions of ancient writers, doctrines of men, and private spirits, are to be examined, and in whose sentence we are to rest, can be no other but the Holy Spirit speaking in the Scripture”. (Conf. I, x). Accordingly our church has held that the supreme guide in the interpretation of the Scriptures is not, as it is with Roman Catholics, ecclesiastical authority, but the Spirit of God, speaking to the Christian believer. Thus our church lays it upon its ministers and others to read and teach the Scriptures as the Spirit of God through His manifold min- = Whe thority under } constitution ‘| the declara- ‘in of doctrine rst Presbyte- in Church of Ww York City istries instructs them, and to receive all truth which from time to time He causes to break forth from the Scriptures. There is no assertion in the Scriptures that their writ- ers were kept “from error.” The Confession of Faith does not make this assertion; and it is significant that this asser- tion is not to be found in the Apostles’ Creed or the Nicene Creed or in any of the great Reformation confessions. The doctrine of inerrancy, intended to enhance the authority of the Scriptures, in fact impairs their supreme authority for faith and life, and weakens the testimony of the church to the power of God unto salvation through Jesus Christ. We hold that the General Assembly of 1923, in asserting that “the Holy Spirit did so inspire, guide and move the writers of Holy Scripture as to keep them from error,” spoke with- out warrant of the Scriptures or of the Confession of Faith. We hold rather to the words of the Confession of Faith, that the Scriptures “are given by inspiration of God, to be tne tue ottaitheand Jife.’ -(Conteli a). II. While it is constitutional for any General Assem- bly “to bear testimony against error in doctrine,” (Form of Govt. XII, v), yet such testimony is without binding author- ity, since the constitution of our church provides that its doctrine shall be declared only by concurrent action of the General Assembly and the presbyteries. ‘Thus the church guards the statement of its doctrine against hasty or ill- considered action by either General Assemblies or presby- teries. From this provision of our constitution, it is evi- dent that neither in one General Assembly nor in many, without concurrent action of the presbyteries, is there authority to declare what the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America believes and teaches; and that the assumption that any General Assembly has authorita- tively declared what the church believes and teaches is groundless. A declaration by a General Assembly that any doctrine is “an essential doctrine” attempts to amend the constitution of the church in an unconstitutional manner. III. The General Assembly of 1923, in asserting that “doctrines contrary to the standards of the Presbyterian Church” have been preached in the pulpit of the First Pres- byterian Church of New York City, virtually pronounced a judgment against this church. The General Assembly did this with knowledge that the matter on which it so ex- pressed itself was already under formal consideration in the Presbytery of New York, as is shown by the language of its action. ‘The General Assembly acted in the case without giving hearing to the parties concerned. Thus the General Assembly did not conform to the procedure in such cases contemplated by our Book of Discipline, and, what is more serious, it in effect condemned a Christian minister without using the method of conference, patience and love a Sie The doctrinal deliverance of the General Assembly Extent of the liberty claimed The spirit and purpose of this affirmation enjoined on us by Jesus Christ. We object to the action of the General Assembly in this case, as being out of keep- ing with the law and the spirit of our church. IV. The General Assembly of 1923 expressed the opin- ion concerning five doctrinal statements that each one “is an essential doctrine of the Word of God and our stand- ards.” On the constitutional grounds which we have before described, we are opposed to any attempt to elevate these five doctrinal statements, or any of them, to the position of . tests for ordination or for good standing in our church. Furthermore, this opinion of the General Assembly at- tempts to commit our church to certain theories concerning the inspiration of the Bible, and the Incarnation, the Atone- ment, the Resurrection, and the Continuing Life and Super- natural Power of our Lord Jesus Christ. We all hold most earnestly to these great facts and doctrines; we all believe from our hearts that the writers of the Bible were inspired of God; that Jesus Christ was God manifest in the flesh; that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself, and through Him we have our redemption; that hav- ing died for our sins He rose from the dead and is our ever- living Saviour; that in His earthly ministry He wrought many mighty works, and by His vicarious death and un- failing presence He is able to save to the uttermost. Some of us regard the particular theories contained in the deliv- erance of the General Assembly of 1923 as satisfactory ex- planations of these facts and doctrines. But we are united in believing that these are not the only theories allowed by the Scriptures and our standards as explanations of these facts and doctrines of our religion, and that ali who hold to these facts and doctrines, whatever theories they may em- ploy to explain them, are worthy of all confidence and fel- lowship. V. We do not desire liberty to go beyond the teachings of evangelical Christianity. But we maintain that it is our constitutional right and our Christian duty within these limits to exercise liberty of thought and teaching, that we may more effectively preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the World. VI. Finally, we deplore the evidences of division in our beloved church, in the face of a world so desperately in need of a united testimony to the gospel of Christ.. We earnestly desire fellowship with all who like us are disciples of Jesus Christ. We hope that those to whom this Affirmation comes will believe that it is not the declaration of a theo- logical party, but rather a sincere appeal, based on the Scrip- tures and our standards, for the preservation of the unity and freedom of our church, for which most earnestly we plead and pray. ee in SGN Eanes AAD AD permere hes Fors Maes.

S. A. and the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, as the basis of the reunion of these churches. All of these things are relevant to statements made in the Af- firmation. I. The subject of the. authority of the deliverances of General Assemblies was discussed by Dr. Charles Hodge in articles in the Princeton Review of July and October, 1865. There will be no difference of opinion as to Dr. Hodge’s loyalty to the Presbyterian Church or his competence to expound its law. His discussion was occasioned by an action of the General Assembly of 1865 concern- ing matters of civil right and duty; but from his words it will be seen that he held that the authority of the deliverances of General Assemblies “on all points of truth and duty,” to use his own lan- guage, is constitutionally limited. Dr. Hodge speaks as follows: “It is an axiom in our Presbyterianism that the General Assem- bly can make no law to bind the conscience. It cannot alter by adding thereto or detracting therefrom the constitutional terms of ministerial or Christian fellowship. ‘Those terms are laid down in express words in our Form of Government, which we are all bound to obey. Assent to the truth or propriety of the deliverances or testimonies of the Assembly is not one of the terms prescribed... . We have no security for liberty of conscience, no protection from the tyranny of casual majorities, if the principle be once admitted - that the Assembly can make anything beyond what the constitution prescribes, a condition either of admission into the ministry of our church or of continuance in it. This is too plain to be questioned.” (Princeton Review, vol. xxxvii, p. 508). cael 1 Rae “The Assembly of course has the right to express its judgment and give instructions on all points of truth and duty. So has every presbytery and every minister or Christian. But such judgments have only the authority due to the advice or opinions of those from whom they proceed. They have no legal force on any man’s con- science or conduct. ... The Popish doctrine of the infallibility of church courts does not suit Americans. It is high time that these simple principles of religious liberty should be clearly announced and openly asserted.”’ (Princeton Review, vol. xxxvii, p. 510). “The next question is, What is the authority due to the deliver- ances of our ecclesiastical judicatories, and specially of the General Assembly. As to this point we do not believe that there is any real difference of opinion among true Presbyterians. “1. It is admitted that church courts are not infallible. ‘AII synods or councils,’ says our Confession, ‘since the apostles’ times, whether general or particular, may err, and many have erred; therefore they are not to be made the rule of faith or practice, but to be used as a help in both.’ Ii not a rule of faith or practice, acquiescence in their deliverances cannot be made a term either of Christian or ministerial communion..... “2. If the deliverances of ecclesiastical bodies be not infallible, then there must be a judge of their correctness, and a standard by which that judgment is to be formed. The judge is every man who chooses to exercise the privilege. If Paul recognizes the right of private judgment, even in reference to the preaching of an apostle, or of an angel from heaven, surely this will not be denied with regard to the acts of any body of fallible and sinful men. The standard of judgment is of course the holy Scriptures. Our Con- fession tells us the decrees and determinations of councils are to be received only when ‘consonant to the word of God.’ As an exposi- tion of the word of God, admitted as authority among Presbyter- ians, we have our Confession of Faith and Form of Government, which constitute our ecclesiastical constitution.” (Princeton Re- - view, vol. xxxvii, pp. 647-8). “Any action of the Assembly in contravention of the compact contained in our Constitution, is of no binding force. [Here fol- low examples illustrative of this principle] ..... But if the As- sembly should assume the prerogative of altering the terms of ministerial communion in our church, it would be an arrogation of a power which does not belong to it.” (Princeton Review, vol. xxvii, pp. 649-50). | _ “Yet every member of the Assembly would, on reflection, read- ily admit that it is the right, not only of subordinate ecclesiastical bodies, but of the humblest member of the church, to express in re- spectiul language their judgment onthe acts of our highest court. This is a privilege which we all claim, and which we all freely exer- cise, and which no Presbyterian ever will give up.” (Princeton Review, vol. xxxvii, p. 507). : Dr. Hodge opposes “the Assembly’s making its own deliver- ances the test of orthodoxy and loyalty,” and goes on to say, “We are persuaded that not a member of the body, when he comes calmly to consider the matter, will hesitate to admit that the Assem- bly, in so doing, transcended its power.” (Princeton Review, vol. Xxxvil, p. 507, p. 508). In its words concerning the authority of the deliverances of General Assemblies, the Affirmation merely states the plain prin- ciples of the law of the church. It is submitted that Dr. Hodge and the Affirmation hold exactly the same position on this subject. II. With regard to the meaning of the subscription to the Confession of Faith made by ministers, the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America has authoritatively spoken, in the Declaratory Statement of 1902, which is a part of the constitution of the church. The Declaratory Statement begins thus: “While the ordination vow of ministers, ruling elders and deacons, as set forth in the Form of Government requires the reception and adoption of the Confession of Faith only as containing the System of Doctrine taught in the Holy Scriptures,”. (Constitution of the Presbyterian Church U. S. A., 1922, p. 140). This therefore is the church’s interpretation of the subscription to the Confession of Faith. The Confession is received and adopted “only as contain- ing the System of Doctrine taught in the Holy Scriptures.” These words of the Declaratory Statement, which was made part of the constitution of our church by action of two General Assemblies and more than two-thirds of the presbyteries, have authority superior to the authority of any deliverance of any General Assembly or of any number of General Assemblies. Thus it appears that the statement of the Affirmation concerning the meaning of the sub- scription to the Confession of Faith finds support in an explicit provision of our constitution. III. The interpretation of the subscription to the Confession of Faith contained in the Declaratory Statement was made one of the terms of the reunion of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America and the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. In 1904 the General Assemblies of both churches adopted, as the basis of the reunion, certain “Concurrent Resolutions,’ which thereby became of permanent authority in the reunited church. In the Resolutions are found these memorable words: “It is also recog- nized that liberty of belief exists by virtue of the provisions of the Declaratory Statement, which is part of the Confession of Faith of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, and which states that the ordination vow of ministers, ruling elders and deacons, as set forth in the Form of Government, requires the re- ception and adoption of the Confession of Faith only as containing the system of doctrine taught in the Holy Scriptures’.”’ (Const. Presba (Che. S.Ay 19225 p..496). Te In issuing for the second time the Affirmation, first published in January 1924, the Conference Committee is fulfilling its promise to publish all signatures received up to April 15th. That the record may be complete, the Note Supple- mentary, issued in March, is also included. The Committee urges on the atten- tion of the ministers and people of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America these considerations: 1. The number of signatures, 1274, is far greater than the Committee had anticipated. Furthermore, the Committtee has certain knowledge, through many letters and conversations, that beside the signers there are in our church hun- dreds of ministers who agree with and approve of the Affirmation, though they have refrained from signing it. 2. No one can read this long list of signatures, containing honored names of men whose Christian character is known to all and whose ministries have been blessed with abundant fruits, without recognizing that these ministers cannot justly be charged with unfaithfulness to their ordination engagements, with revolt against rightful authority in the church, or with forsaking Christian belief. The support of such a company makes it evident that the principles re- stated in the Affirmation are in accord with the standards of our church. 3. The signers of the Affirmation are not a theological party. Among them are men who call themselves and are called conservatives, and men who call themselves and are called liberals. Differing as to certain theological interpre- tations, they are one in loyalty to our church, in devotion to the kingdom of God, and in faith in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. 4. These signatures constitute an appeal to the church, both at large and as represented in its commissioners to the General Assembly, for a general adop- tion of this same spirit of mutual confidence and unity, for a recognition of the fact that our church is broad enough to include men honestly differing in their interpretation of our common standards and yet loyal servants of Jesus Christ, and for a new consecration of the whole church to work for the world in obedi- ence to our Lord.
