Why Am I A Cumberland Presbyterian Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Why Am I A Cumberland Presbyterian? Has permitted this great spiritual family to be divided into different subordinate families. Of course, in establishing our relations to the Church for ourselves, a choice is to be made. We select one family, one branch of the Church, rather than another. We have reasons for such a choice. These reasons may be wise and weighty; on the other hand, they may deserve but little considera tion; still they are reasons with us. We consider our action intelligent, and they are reasons which influence that action. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Reasons Why: The Cumberland Presbyterian Church and the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America Should Be United Because, whether the Presbyterian Church has radically revised its creed, as many of them admit, or has only ex plained it, as some of them claim, that creed now contains practically-everything for which Cumberland Presbyterians have contended, hence there remains no sufficient reason for continued separation.

Excerpt from The Proposed Union With the Cumberland Presbyterians The General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, meeting at Los Angeles, Cal., in May, 1903, received from a number of its Presbyteries overtures "relating to closer cooperation or union with sister denominations." In response to these overtures it appointed a Committee "to consider the whole subject of cooperation, confederation and consolidation with other Churches." This Committee was instructed "to enter into correspondence with any Churches of the Reformed family with whom, in the judgment of the Committee, such correspondence would be likely to promote closer relations"; and "to report to the next Assembly such plans and measures as seem to them wise, proper and profitable for the advancement of fraternal relations, for the increase of harmonious work, and, if God shall open the way, and incline the hearts of the Churches thereto, for the reunion of those who hold the same faith and order in the service of Christ." No doubt the Committee, under the guidance of its able and energetic Chairman, has been diligently prosecuting throughout the year the somewhat extensive task committed to it. It is to be sincerely hoped that it will be able to report to the approaching Assembly much progress in the great work of drawing more closely together in the service of Christ those who hold the same faith and order. Meanwhile, however, we arc incompletely informed of these labors. What absorbs our attention at the moment is the result of the conference of the Committee with a similar Committee appointed by the General Assembly of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, meeting at Nashville. This Committee "on Presbyterian fraternity and union," was appointed, it seems, on the same day (May 27) on which our own Committee was appointed. A notification of its appointment was sent at once to our Assembly, and an appropriate reply to this notification was returned, implying that consideration of the general subject of "Presbyterian fraternity and union" was included in the proposed work of our Committee.
