Our Growth.
Not in the spirit of boasting, but
simply to place before the reader
some t aots, do I present the following.
Speaking of our movement, a writer
in the New York Independent says,
"that this religious reformation has
very seriously influenced the theolog
ical and ecclesiastical developments of
the last half century, and woo for
itself a significant place in the re
ligious movements of the age, and
affected all churches, no one can
deny." As there ia some question as
to the comparative growth of the
Church of Christ, I submit the fol
lowing table, copied from the Ameri
can Home Missionary: ,'
stand as follows: Churches, 11,198;
ministers, 6,070; members, 1,269,591;
Bible schools, 8,952; enrolled in
Bible schools, 870,622; gain ia mem
bership this year, 81,076 (only about
one half of gain in membership was
reported, so the gain would be over
60,000;) missionary receipts, $989,
609; education and benevolence,$190,
645; local church work, $8,575,000.
It may be asked how have we grown
from a small congregation of 81 to a
present membership of about 1,800,000
in a little over three fourths of a
ceutury? We reply: By evangelism ;
that was the spirit of the New Testa
ment ohuroh. By presenting the bible
way of salvation, viz: Faith in Christ,
repentance from sin,; confessing
Christ before men and immersion in
to Christ; this is plain and rational;
young and old can understand it. By
wearing no other name but Christ's.
He said, "I will build my ohuroh;"
this He did and it should wear no
other name but His; this speaks loyal
ty and honor to Jesus , only. By as
sembling every Lord's day for the
Lord's Supper, proclamation of bis
word and living His life; this woe the
life of the early chuicb. By pleading
