From the Apostolic times we find that there has been a tendency toward erroneous teachings and practices in the churches with the result that, as soon as the prevailing churches fell into errors, became proud, corrupt, and worldly, departing from the simplicity and spirituality of the gospel, then such as con- tinued true to the teachings of the New Testament separated themselves, and served God according to the dictates of their own conscience as enlightened by the word of God. Such individuals and groups endeavored to maintain the teachings and ordinances of Christ as they understood Him to have delivered them to His disciples, and sought to be true and faith- ful witnesses to Him in the midst of the prevailing degeneracy. These groups and sects have been characterized as heretics by those from whom they separated themselves and against whose teachings they protested. Among these so-called "heretics" have been some of the noblest characters, heroes, and martyrs for the truth, that the world has known. In the second century of our Christian era they were known as Montoiiists; from the third to the tenth centuries they bore the names of Novations, Donatists and Paulicians. All these professed to hold to the plain, specific teachings of the New Testament as the only rule of faith and practice, received none but regenerated persons into church membership, rejected infant baptism, insisted that none but believers should be baptized, and practiced immersion. In the eleventh and following centuries, up to and after the Reformation, these dissenters to the established forms of belief and practice were known as Henricans, Waldenses, Albigenses, Poor Men of Lyons, and other names, and they continued to grow in numbers and influence notwithstanding their persecu- tion. In' the early years of the Reformation, or the first half of the 16th century, great numbers of those who were known as Annabaptists, that is those who re-baptized, sprang up all over Europe, doubtless due to the moral and spiritual quicken- ing which resulted from the exaltation of the Word of God *Specifically : A History of the Baptist Church in the United States, Newman.

This term of Annabaptist was I one of contempt given by their enemies who claimed that they I re-baptized, a practice which they indignantly denied, claiming that those whom they baptized, although having been subjects of either sprinkling or immersion, had never been scripturally baptized. These Annabaptists held many of the teachings and = practices taught, by the Baptists of today, and historically they = are the spiritual ancestors of modern Baptists. Mosheim, the I noted church historian, is quoted as saying: "The, true origin \ of that sect which acquired the name of Annabaptist, is hid in the remote depths of antiquity, and is consequently extremely difficult to be ascertained." And Zwingli, the Swiss contem- porary of Luther, was more specific if rightly quoted, when I he wrote: "The institution of Annabaptism is no novelty, but § for thirteen hundred years has caused great disturbance in the I church," meaning the Roman Catholic church, of course. In J the year 1819, the claim of the Dutch Baptists to Apostolic origin was made the subject of special investigation by a commission appointed by the King of the Netherlands. Among the many things that were reported we have these striking f words: "We have now seen that the Baptists, who were form- | erly called Annabaptists, and in later times Mennonites, were I the original Waldenses, and have long in the history of the j church received the honor of that origin. On that account Baptists may be considered the only Christian society which j has preserved pure the doctrines of the gospel through all the ages. The perfectly correct external and internal economy of the Baptist denomination tendsi to confirm the truth, disputed by the Romish church, that the Reformation was in the highest degree necessary, and at the same time goes to refute the erroneous notion of the Catholics, that their denomination is the most ancient." Gradually the name Baptist came to be employed in Europe and in England to designate those who held tenaciously to the New Testament teachings as taught and practiced by the Baptist denomination at the present time. It is the consensus of historical judgment that the First Baptist church in America was organized at Providence, Rhode Island, in March 1639, under the leadership of Ro'ger Williams, and that it began with eleven members; and since then our growth has been continuous and in later years phenomenal, showing that Baptist principles thrive and flourish in the at- mosphere and amid the environments of democracy, as will be evident from the following showing: In A. D. 1639, there were 11 members In A. D. 1733, there were • 500 members In A. D. 1832, there were 384,000 members In A. D. 1924, there were 8,581,024 members ! 13 Moore's Music House Pianos of The BEST Makes SOLD FOR CASH OR EASY TERMS Everything Musical — Good As The Best and Better Than The Rest.

I I ! I 14 1 Te foregoing table is for the United States only; the total f number of Baptists in the world, according to the statistics i for 1924, was 11,829,411. Lack of space forbids any- attempt to enumerate the mani- | fold and varied denominational enterprises and activities, and « permits but a hint at the magnitude of our Missionary, Educa- % tional and Elemosinary agencies which, while not comparable 1 in magnitude with our numbers nor yet commensurate with our j resources and wholly inadequate to meet the needs of the world- 1 wide conditions, are nevertheless challenging for many reasons. | Some conception of our growth, solidarity and future possibili- f ties may be gathered from the knowledge that, according to = the reports for 1924, we have, in the United States, 57,500 s churches, served by 46,965 ministers; that our church property i is valued at $295,958,300.00; that our current expenses amount- ed to $51,135,505.00, and our Missionary and Benevolent con- tributions totaled $17,073,238.00, making a total for the year of $71,062,592.00. In addition we erected 239 new church buildings that would perhaps add another $15,000,000.00, or more, to the foregoing total. We have 272 Educational insti- tutions with 4,867 instructors and 88,069 pupils; property valued at $85,164,037.00, and Endowments, $93,793,455.00, or a total of property and endowments of $178,957,492.00. In addition we may mention 30 Orphanages caring for 4,668 children; 19 Homes for the Aged and Infirm, with 962 inmates; and 32 Hospitals with bed capacity of 3,073, all of which have a total value of more than $20,000,000.00 to say nothing of annual cost for maintenance. We may not pause to mention the work of our great Home Mission Societies, with their hundreds of Mis- sionaries and thousands of converts; nor more than refer to our Publication Societies and Sunday School Boards with their vast output of character-shaping literature; ot pause for partic- ulars respecting our world-girdling Missionary operations with thousands of Missionaries, including the native-trained, all of which have vast property holdings, necessarily so, on the foTeign fields, and some of them productive plants, and all in- • volving yet more millions. \ This is our heritage. The task to " Carry On" committed ;| to us, is challenging, glorious, world-wide, race-inclusive and | for all ages; we are obligated to be loyal to our trust that we 1 may transmit to others who shall follow us an uncontaminated s faith, an unsullied record, and an ever-enlarging program. May the "author and finisher of our faith," give us all needed grace as ;a denomination and as a church, to be loyal to our trust. 15 * n " ■" u ' "■ f I THE MONTGOMERY CO. | SHOES FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY and GENTS' FURNISHINGS Phone 1006.

In 1888 the lot on the corner | directly opposite the present location was purchased for the I sum of $25.00, and in the church undertook the task of rais- s ing $1,000.00 for the erection of a building. The corner- I stone was laid in 1889 and the building completed in 1891. i Up to that time services had been held in the Union Chapel, J still standing 1 at the corner of Union and what is now known as Fisher street, where it had been organized. Lack of space forbids an attempt to deal with the history of those early years, nor is it necessary, since it was so' care- f fully written thirteen years ago and copies are still available; | and to show the steady progress the church has made a I statistical history of the church will appear elsewhere in this I- Directory. We shall endeavor to give a brief outline of out- ] standing events during the present pastorate which began § January 1, 1913. It may be of passing interest to note that I the present pastor was the thirteenth to serve the church, I that he began his ministry with the year 1913, and that the present year completes his thirteenth year of service. This pastorate began most auspiciously, due very largely to the faithful and constructive labors of his predecessor, Eev. S. L. f Morgan, who introduced the present pastor to the church and i commended him in glowing terms. Hence the membership at I ouce took him to their hearts and made possible the results i that have been achieved. In the spring of 1913 a series of revival meetings were held under the leadership of four splendid young men from the Baptist Theological Seminary at Eochester, N. Y., which stirred the entire community, greatly revived the church and added larga numbers to the membership. But just as the meetings seemed to have reached their high water mark the Pastor was suddenly stricken with complete nervous prostration, and for several days seemed near death's door, as a result of which the meetings came to an unexpected ending. The church graciously and nobly rallied to the stricken Pastor, installing a nurse, providing a supply for the pulpit, praying for his recovery, and consoling the members of his family with most Christ-like words and deeds. And not merely the church but the entire community manifested such thoughtful and tender solicitude for the stranger's welfare and recovery that they could have done no more had he been an ideal citizen for a quarter of a century. Such love and consideration placed the sick man under an indebtedness which can never be repaid, and which has made it a joy to serve ever since. Prior to the resignation of the former pastor he had made a canvass of the membership and secured pledges sufficient to pay all ontstand- 17 W. I.

G-OODES, Proprietor, f L 1 18 I I I ing obligations which amounted to several thousand dollars, but f no one was appointed to collect these pledges and with the s arrival of the new pastor, the stir created by the revival meet- ings, the excitement attending the pastor's sickness and the long interval before he was able to be active again, this matter of making collections was entirely overlooked, and early in 1914 it was found that with interest and other accumulations, the church had an indebtedness of $6,500.00. According to the Associational Minutes the entire property value was $14,000.00, hence the debt rose like a huge mountain barring the progress of the church. It required several heroic efforts during three successive years to remove this financial burden, but at last it was accomplished and from that date the church has made steady advancement. The year 1917 was a memorable one for many reasons, one being that at Easter the church raised $1,000.00 as the nucleus for a church building fund, the first time in its history that it had money in the bank. In the summer of that same year elaborate preparations were made for celebrating the thirtieth anniversary of the organiza- tion of the church, which, unknown to the family, was to in- clude a public recognition of the faithful and devoted services of Deacon J. Wesley Cates and Mrs. Gates who had been identified with the church since its organization. It was planned to present this worthy couple with a loving cup as a small token of appreciation. A special service was held at the Union church on the afternoon of July 28, the anniversary date, at which time Mrs. R. Homer Andrews, grand-daughter of Deacon and Mrs. Cates, was received for membership after baptism, the more formal services were to be held the following day — Sunday. But that night Mrs. Cates who had been in seemingly usual health, was suddenly taken violently sick and in less than an hour departed for her eternal home. Thus passed a noble woman, faithful wife and devoted mother and Christian. This was the end of the anniversary observance, the service next morning was more in the form of a funeral, sadness and grief were in evidence everywhere. The loving cup was privately presented to the family, and the event that had been joyfully anticipated ended in gloom and sorrow. January 5, 1918, Deacon Cates who had seemingly succeeded in adjusting himself to his lonesome condition, was suddenly taken sick and in the brief space of an hour, at almost the same time of night that Mrs. Cates had died, his spirit took its departure for the spirit world. These sad oc- currences greatly stirred the church and the community, and at the same time severed the bonds that bound the member- ship by living ties to the original group that formed the church in 1887, Deacon and Mrs. Cates being the last f of that courageous gro'up that formed the church. Mr. Cates = had attained to the age of seventy years-, but, interesting to = relate he was survived by his aged mother, who lived until J «!„„ „„ „,. mi ii» mi mi mi mi itit mm mm mm m mi mi mm mm „„ „„ ,„„ „„ „^ 19 «* COMPLIMENTS of Champion Wholesale Grocery Company Phone 763.

In recognition of the long membership and faithful services, the church, at a later date, authorized the placing of a bronze memorial tablet on the console of the pipe organ in the new church, which with the organ, serves as a tribute to the memory of these departed ones. The small nucleus toward a building fund, already re- ferred to, made it possible, with the sale of the parsonage on Maple avenue, for the church early in 1919, to purchase the property on which the new edifice now stands, at a cost of $13,750.00, which included all street improvements which had just been com- pleted. This forward movement secured for the church a choice and strategically located property easily worth twice its cost. The transaction infused new life and hope into the membership and heralded the dawn of the new day for the church. None of our new members can appreciate what that meant to the church at that time. But the purchase of the property did more. It led to another important action. Know- ing that futurei developments looked toward the erection of a new edifice, and that it would be impossible for the church to look after the endless details that would be involved in such an enterprise, the church appointed a committee of twenty- one members, known as the Committee of Twenty-One, to look after all matters that should pertain to the new church and by legal papers transferred its authority to this committee, which consisted of the following members: Dr. J. C. Staley, C. L. Shoffner, S. T. Eoss, J. N. Gates, C. H. Cates, E. L. Spoon, Dr. J. P. Spoon, J. M. Tisdale, J. B. Cheek, J. L. Scott, A. H. King, C. J. Mclver, J. S. Malone, L. V. Macomson, E. L. Morgan, W. J. Hall, Miss B. I. Cates, J. W. Montgomery, E. Homer Andrews, S. C. Patterson, A. J. Garner, with the PastoT as chairman, Ex-Officio. Subsequently, due to death and other changes, T. L. Sellers and L. D. Perry were added to the com- mittee. This committee at a later date appointed the sub- committee that was to have charge of the actual construction, of which we shall take note farther on in thej story. At our last annual church business meeting, September 30, this Com- mittee of Twenty-One was officially discharged. In August, 1918, a great movement was launched to secure $25,000.00 with which to complete the payments on the new property and to form the beginning of a worth-while building fund. This was the greatest under- taking of the church up to that time, and it required courage, perseverance and strenuous effort to accomplish the task, but we came near the sum fixed, the total pledges amount- ing to $24,607.00. The new year of 1919 brought another stag- gering blow to the church. John H. Vernon, prominent at- torney, popular citizen, beloved brother, chairman of our Board = of Deacons, superintendent of the Sunday school and all-around i booster and helper, was taken sick with the influenza and then seemed to show improvement only to experience a relapse and I i __„„_„__„„_,,„_„„_,„ ,_„„ , . , * • 21 ALAMANCE LAUNDRY And DRY CLEANERS "We Clean The Odorless Way" And "We Do It Better" PHONE 560 Alamance Laundry and Dry Cleaners I I i I 5 22 on January 5, he passed to his reward. The lo'ss of this brother was so startlingly unexpected and seemed irreparable for a time, then it aroused the membership as nothing- else could have done, and in the new forward movements of our membership the soul of John H. Vernon has seemed to be "marching" on toward the achievements of ever larger and better things. The year brought on the great denominational undertaking now remembered as the seventy-five million drive, when in step with all the other denominations, having learned from the methods employed by the government how to organize and co-operate for achieving large results, a great movement was inaugurated to secure the sum of seventy-five million dollars for Missions, Education and Benevolences dur- ing a period of five years. This church had just succeeded in raising a little over $1,200.00 for these objects, and now we were asked, as our quoto, for $15,000.00 in five years. It was felt by some that if we were to erect a new church building we would not be able to pledge such an amount; but love for GTod and the lost, loyalty to the denominational program, pre- vailed and when the day finally came — December 7 — the mem- bership pledged $20,000.00, a glorious victory! and at the close of the five years our treasurer reported the actual payment of $20,049.24. It seemed that this achievement would prove the limit of our ability for a long time to come, but God had put into the hearts of His people to do great things for Him, and now He would aid them in doing greater things for themselves and Him. December 16, make note of that date, four men met for a committee meeting that was not held; there being no fire at the church because the janitor had not been notified, the brethren were invited to the parsonage across the street. The other members of the committee failed to put in an appearance. Those present were: Dr. J. C. Staley, E. L. Morgan, J. L. Scott and C. H. Gates, all Deacons. The great victory nine days previously was briefly referred to, then the need for a new church became the topic of general conversation which at first was in a tone of pleasantry yet with a note of subdued earnestness which set one person present to praying earnestly. Soon the discussion assumed a more serious tone and after a couple of hours or more, the four reached a decision that they wonld start a movement for the securing of funds for the pro- posed new church by pledging the following sums in cash: E. L. Morgan, $7,500.00; Dr. J. C. Staley, $5,000.00; J. L. Scott, $5,000.00, and C. H Cates, $1,000.00. It was then that the praying one suggested that perhaps such generosity might be so utilized as to provoke a great response from the mem- ship at large, which suggestion resulted in the decision that the first three mentioned would challenge the membership at large to duplicate their gifts, in cash within thirty days, the pledge of Mr. Gates to count with the challenged party. A special meeting of the church was called for the following Sun- 23 I f s [ 1 This Space Donated By ALAMANCE LUMBER CO, Inc. 1 i M. ATWATER, Pres. H. A. ATWATER, Vice-Pres. ? I D. W.

When the importance of the meeting had been stated the challenge given and the conditions stated, pledges were called for, and before adjournment more than $12,000.00 had been pledged, which made a total of over $30,000.00 and the rest seemed easy. God was evidently leading. The pay- ments were to be made February 1. But an influenza epidemic struck the city and county which wrought consternation in the community so that theaters, schools, churches and public places were closed, no one seemed to know just what to do and the undertaking seemed doomed to failure, but these men meant business; they extended the time to March 1. The Pastor was on the sick list and not able to do much, but Deacon Morgan came around with his automobile and took him about while the Deacon explained, and solicited and plead for pledges as if his very life depended on his challenge being covered. The large pledges had all been secured and it took a great many small ones to make a large amount : but little by little, day after day they came and with them the cash, so that on the speci- fied day and at the appointed place the committee met and deposited $36,076.00 in bank. The challenge had been met. God had given the victory. The membership should never for- get these men nor the heroism of those days. Pledges were made that meant actual sacrifices, some borrowed the money and were months and years in paying it, still others mortgaged their property in order to help meet the emergency; and all the time all realized that soon must come still other calls for large sums. But the many did nobly, and all seemed to give in the spirit of II Corinthians 8:2-5. It is probably true that none of the challengers felt their giving as keenly as did the many who gave the smaller amounts, but it is equally true that had it not been for the far-sighted generosity of these men so able and willing to give large sums, the more modest gifts of the rest would not have been forthcoming. And large and small givers alike continued to give when the emergency arose. Lack of space forbids detailed accounts of the under- takings that followed in rapid succession, nor may we even mention the several revival meetings that were held and the God-sent men who led them to the quickening of our spiritual life and the continual increase of our membership. The statistical history already referred to includes the results ob- tained. Suffice it to say that God has led and blessed and prospered in a marvelous manner the sacrificial endeavors of His people. The passing of another outstanding member of the church deserves notice: Mrs. E. F. Williams, a long-time member of the church, died as the result of the influenza epidemic in January 1919. Mrs. Williams was the president of the Woman's Mission Society, an earnest, consistent, sweet spirited woman, whose gentle ways and lovable disposition endeared her to all; and her home-going was a decided loss to ••■— M| Burlington Music Co.

One new and effective agency in our church life was the launching of the publication of our Weekly Church Bulletin which made its first appearance the first Sunday in January 1920. In its pages will be found the current history of the eventful years since then. It is hoped that many have preserved them as has been constantly urged. In the Bulletin for January 2, 1921, appeared the architect's conception of the new edifice and an explanation of the proposed building. In April the plans and specifications were approved by the Com- mittee of Twenty-One, and shortly after a committee known as the Construction Committee was chosen to have the actual work of building in charge, which consisted of the following brethren: E. L. Morgan, chairman; C. H. Cates, secretary; J. L. Scott, treasurer; A. H. King, attorney, and J. S. Malone, consulting contractor. During December of the same year the parsonage was moved to its present location from the place where the church now stands. The Construction Committee proved to be a most capable body of men, who gave themselves unsparingly to their task. Mr. Morgan gave all of his time during the winter and spring of the new year. The building program was pushed energetically. In June some friends felt that the Pastor needed some more "go" and therefore presented him with a new Ford Coupe. In Septem- ber of the same year the church employed a Pastor's Assistant who served for eleven months and then married a former pastor of the church. November 25, 1923, a great White Elephant confronted the congregation that assembled for the morning service. When explanations were offered it was found that it represented the unprovided funds due on the new building and that the day had been chosen as the time to provide the money, or rather pledges, that would procure the money. The plan submitted was to take out Building and Loan stock for the full amount. The membership being accustomed to such ap- peals and appreciating the urgent need for funds, responded with enthusiastic liberality and before the close of the evening service the whole amount had been provided, a mar- velous achievement considering the many previous appeals. February 24, 1924, the new edifice was opened to the public with appropriate services morning, afternoon and evening. The interior called forth words of delight and admiration because of its chaste simplicity and admirable arrangements. The baptistry especially called forth words of commendation, the admirable arrangements of the Auditorium, Sunday School and Assembly Eoom, and the system of indirect lighting of the Auditorium elicited words| of praise from all. At this service the treasurer of the Construction Committee reported that the property, complete, had cost $102,000.00, which left $5,000 still unprovided for by the Building and Loan plan. At a later date, as bills, and accounts that had not been reported came in, this amount increased to $6,500.00 27 I I I Virginia Dare Shoes — Virginia Dare Hosiery I Markson Shoe Store "WHERE YOU SAVE" DOVER HERITAGE, Mgr. 308 Main Street.

F. Ham-Ramsey evangelistic party. These meetings continued for seven consecutive weeks and were marvelously blessed of God to the quickening of Christians, a new appreciation of the scriptures and the power of the gospel, the upbuilding and strengthening of Christian life and character and the saving of the lost. As a result of these meetings there were some 230 additions to our member- ship, many of them by baptism; there were 263 additions dur- ing our church year, 156 of them by baptism. At one service after the meetings 63 persons were baptized in the space of twenty-eight minutes, according to three time-keepers whom, unbeknown to each other, were seated in different parts of the house and noted the time, and all was done "decently and in order." The meetings marked a new era in the spiritual life of the churches and of the entire community. The church now has a membership of nearly nine hundred, nearly eight hundred of them being residents; they live on some seventy streets and six or seven E. F. D. routes. "With a building and equipment measurably adequate to meet our growing needs, a large, intelligent, united and ag- gressive membership, with manifold organizations that have for their objective the enlistment and development of every member because engaged in some form of Christian activity and ser- vice; having the good-will of the community to whose interest and welfare, next to the glory of God, we have dedicated our house of worship, with the irrisistable appeal of the glorious gospel of Christ entrusted to our keeping and proclamation, we face the future with hope and courage. To all who are in sympathy with our views or who may be members of churches of like faith and order elsewhere, and to all who have no church or even denominational affiliations or inclinations, we extend a sincere and cordial invitation to worship with' us, to' enter our fellowship and to become identified with us in the manifold activities of our church life, that together we may serve our God, our day and generation and this community, hearing at last: Well done thou good and faithful one, Thy race is run, thy work is done; Come lay thy heavy burdens down, Come take thy rest and wear thy crown. 29 I " .■■■■»■■ .

The Old and New Testament Scriptures were written by men divinely inspired, and are the only sufficient and per- fect rule of faith and practice. II Tim. 3:16, 17; II Peter 1:21; Matt. 5:19; 24:35; Luke 24:44; John 5:39; 10:35; 14:15, 21-26; 17:17; Isa. 8:20. 2. There is one God, and only one, who is self-existent, eternal, and infinite in every excellence, and who has revealed himself as Father, Son, Holy Ghost, the same in essence, though distinct in personality. Isa. 45:21, 22; Jer. 10:10; Exod. 3:14; Dent. 6:4; 32:4; John 1:1-13; Rom. 9:5; I Tim. 3:16; Rev. 1:8; John 14:26; 15:26; Acts 5:3, 4; I Cor. 3:16; 12:11; Matt. 28:19. I 3. Man was created innocent. By disobedience of the com- mand of God he fell, thereby losing his innocence, becoming subjected to death and to the eternal displeasure of God. Gen. 1:27, 31; 2:16, 17; 3:1-6; Ps. 9:17; 14:1-3; 51:5; Eccl. 7:29; Isa. 53:6; Jer. 17:9; Ezek. 18:19, 20; Matt. 25:46; Rom. 1:18, 32; 2:1-16; I Cor. 15:22; Gal. 3:10; Eph. 2:3; I John 1:8. 4. Jesus Christ, the Son of God and the Son of man, came into' the world to save men from the guilt and condemnation of sin, offering his blood as an atonement, and making it avail- able to all who exercise faith in him. John 1:14, 29; Luke 1:26-35; Acts 4:12; Rom. 3:20-26; John 3:14-16; Gal. 6:14; Matt. 26:28; Acts 16:31; John 6:53. 5. The result of the heart acceptance of Jesus Christ is justification, whereby pardon is secured and we are brought into a state of peace and favor with Go'd. Eph. 1:7; Rom. 4:4, 5; 5:1. 6. The human means by which this result is secured is repentance and faith whereby we turn unto God in sincere con- trition and accept Jesus Christ as an all-sufficient Saviour. Acts 2:38; Eph. 2:8; Heb. 7:25. 7. God has his purposes of grace in the salvation of men. Tl ese purposes are made effectual by the giving of his Son, and in the constraining and regenerating influence of the Holy G host upon all who sincerely believe in Christ. But these pur- I poses do not contravene the freedom of man's will, nor render 1 inoperative the proclamation of the gospel to all. Rom. 8:28-30; Eph. 1:4; Isa. 46:10; John 3:6-8; 6:44; 1:12, 13; I Peter 1:2; \ James 1:18; John 16:7-11; Eph. 2:10; Phil. 2:12, 13; John 5:40; f Rom. 10:13-16. ] 8. Nothing can separate true believers from the love of = God; but they are "kept by the power of God, through faith, I unto salvation," the sure proof of this being their patient con- 1 tinuance'and progress in righteousness and true holiness. Rom. '; 8:35-39; I Peter 1:5; John 10:27-29; 8:31; Col. 1:21-23; Heb. ] 3:14; Matt. 24:13; I John 2:19; II Cot. 3:18; II Peter 1:3. 9.
