Baptism and Lord’s Supper, only accounted for as monuments, 157 the formula of, correlates Christ’s name with God’s, 312 according to Romish church, 522 of Jesus, its import, 761, 762, 942 Christian, definition of, 931 instituted by Christ, 931 of universal and perpetual obligation, 931 ignored by Salvation Army and Society of Friends, 931 John’s recognized by Christ, 931, 932 John’s, was it a modification of a previously existing rite?, 931, 932 proselyte, its existence discussed, 931, 932 John’s, essentially Christian baptism, 732 made the law of the church, 932 Christian, complementally related to Lord’s Supper, is of equal permanency, 932, 933 its mode, immersion, 933 meaning of its original word, according to Greek usage, 933, 934 meaning of original word as determined by contextual relation, 934 meaning of original word determined by voice used with ’water,’, 935 meaning of original word determined by prepositional connections, 935 meaning of original word derived from circumstances, 935 original meaning of word determined from figurative allusions, 936 original meaning of word determined by practice of early church, 936 occasional change in its mode permitted for seeming sufficient reason at an early date, 936 original meaning of word determined by usage of Greek church, 937, 938 Dr. Dods’ statement as to its mode, 938 concession to its original method of observance in the introduction of baptisteries or “fontgraves” into non Baptist places of worship, 938 the church, being only an executive body, cannot modify Christ’s law concerning, 939 the law of, fundamental, and therefore unalterable save by Legislator himself, 939 any modification of, by church, implies unwisdom in Appointer of rite, 939 any change in mode vacates ordinance of its symbolic significance, 939 objections to its mode, immersion, 940 if its mode impracticable, ordinance not a duty, 940 when its mode dangerous, ordinance not to be performed, 940 the mode of baptism decently impressive, 940 the ordinance symbolizing suffering and death is consistently somewhat inconvenient, 940 God’s blessing on an irregular administration of, no sanction of irregularity, 940 its symbolism, 940‐945 what it symbolizes is general, 940 it symbolizes death and burial of Christ, 940 it symbolizes union with Christ, 941 it symbolizes atonement and redemption, 941 it symbolizes to the believer being baptized his spiritual death and resurrection, 941 it symbolizes union of believers with each other, 942 it symbolizes the death and resurrection of the body, 942 the central truth, set forth by, 942 a correlative truth set forth by, 943 sets forth purification through communion with death of Christ, 944 symbolizes regenerating power of Jesus’ death, 944 immersion in, alone symbolizes the passage from death unto life in regeneration and communion with Christ in his death and rising, 944 the substituting for the correct mode of, one which excludes all reference to Christ’s death destroys the ordinance, 944 is a historical monument, 945 is a pictorial expression of doctrine, 945 and Lord’s Supper, 945 subjects of, 945‐959 the proper subjects of, 945 those only to be baptized who have first been made disciples, 945 those only to be baptized who have repented and believed, 945 those only to be baptized who can be members of the church, 945 those only to be baptized for whom the symbolism is valid, 946 not a means of regeneration, 946 the spiritual and the ritual so combined in, that the whole ordinance may be designated by its outward aspect, 946 as a being “born of water,” 946 connected with repentance “for the remission of sins,”, 946 without baptism, discipleship incomplete, and ineffective, 947 the teachings of Campbellism regarding, 947, 948 act of person baptized, 948 before it is administered, church should require evidence that candidates are regenerated, 949 incorrectly called “door into the church,”, 949 as expressive of inward character of candidate, 950 as regeneration is once for all, baptism must not be repeated, 950 as outward expression of inward change, is the first of all duties, 950 should follow regeneration with least possible delay, 950 if an actual profession of faith, not to be repeated, 950 accessories to, matters of individual judgment, 951 its formula, 951 Infant, 951‐959 without warrant in scripture, 951 has no express command, 951 no clear example, 951 passages held to imply it, have no reference thereto, 951 expressly contradicted, 952 in it the prerequisites of faith and repentance impossible, 952 in it the symbolism of baptism has lost significance, 952 its practice inconsistent with constitution of the church, 952 is unharmonious with prerequisites to the Lord’s Supper, 952 has led in Greek Church to infant communion, 953 denied by the Paulicians, 953 the reasons of its rise and spread, 953 a necessary concomitant of a State Church, 954 founded on unscriptural and dangerous reasonings, 954 it assumes power of church to tamper with Christ’s commands, 954 contradicts New Testament ideas of church, 954 assumes a connection of parent and child closer and more influential than facts of Scripture and experience will support, 954, 955 its propriety urged on various unsettled grounds, 956 does it make its subjects members of the church?, 956 its evil effects, 957‐959 forestalls any voluntary act, 957 induces superstitious confidence, 957 has led to baptism of irrational and material things, 957 has obscured and corrupted Christian truth, 958 is often an obstacle to evangelical views, 958 merges church in nation and world, 958 substitutes for Christ’s command an invention of men, 958, 959 literature concerning, 959

the universe, but not to the great end of the universe itself, 76 answers objections by showing the development of useful collocations from initial imperfections, 78 has reinforced the evidences of

Christ’s operation, 311 in its next scientific form will maintain the divineness of man and exalt Jesus of Nazareth to an eminence secure and supreme, 328 “Father,” more than symbol of the cause of

intact, 465 cannot be explained without taking into account the originating agency of God, 465 does not make the idea of Creator superfluous, 466 theist must accept, if he keep his argument for existence of God from unity of design, 466 of music depends on power of transmitting intellectual achievements, 466 unintelligible except as immanent God gives new impulses to the process, 470 according to Mivart, it can account neither for body or soul of man, 472 still incomplete, man is still on all fours, 472 an atheistic, a reversion to the savage view, 473 theistic, regards human

Man, in what sense supernatural, 26 furnishes highest type of intelligence and will in nature, 79 as to intellect and freedom, not eternal a parte ante, 81 his intellectual and moral nature, implies an intellectual and moral author, 81 his moral nature proves existence of a holy Lawgiver, 82 his emotional and voluntary nature proves the existence of a Being who may be a satisfying object of human affection and end of human activity, 83 recognizes in God, not his like, but his opposite, 83 mistakes as to his own nature lead him into mistakes as to the First Cause, 84, 253 his consciousness, Royce’s view, 99 his will above nature, 121 a concave glass towards God, 252 can objectify self, 252 is self‐determining, 252 not explicable from nature, 411 a spiritually reproductive agent, yet God begets, 418 a creation, and child of God, 465‐476 his creation a fact of Scripture, 465 exists by creative acts of God, 465 though result of evolution, yet originating agency of God needed, 465 whether mediately or immediately created Scripture does not explicitly state, 465 the true doctrine of evolution consistent with the Scriptural doctrine of creation, 466 certain psychological human endowments cannot have come from the brute, 466 God’s breathing into men was such a re‐inforcement of the processes of life as turned the animal into man, 467 and brute, both created by the immanent God, the former comes to his status not from but through the latter, 467 the beginnings of his conscious life, 467 some simple distinctions between man and brute, 467, 468 if of brute ancestry, yet the offspring of God, 469 Scripture teaches that man’s nature is the creation of God, 469 his relations to animals, authors upon, 469 immediate creation of his body not forbidden by comparative physiology, 470 that his physical system is descended by natural generation from the simiæ, an irrational hypothesis, 470 as his soul was an immediate creation of God, so, in this sense, was his body also, 470 does not degenerate as we travel back in time, 471 no natural process accounts for his informing soul nor for the body informed by that soul, 472 the laws of development followed in man’s origin from a brute ancestry are but methods of God, and proofs of his creatorship, 472 comes upon the scene not as a brute but as a self‐conscious, self‐ determining being, 472 his original and new creation, both from within, 472 an emanation of that Divine Life of which the brute was a lower manifestation, 472 his nature not an undesigned result of atheous evolution but the efflux of the divine personality, 473 natural selection may account for man’s place in nature, but not for his place as a spiritual being above nature, 473 his intellectual and moral faculties have only an adequate cause

nature untenable, 485, 486 the true relation of πνεῦμα and ψυχή in his nature, 486‐488 is different in kind from the brute, though possessed of certain powers in common with it, 486 since spirit is soul when in connection with the body, soul cannot be immortal unless with spiritual body, 486 the trichotomous theory of the nature of, untenable on psychological grounds, 486 a true view of the spiritual nature of, refutes six errors, 486, 487 some who have held the trichotomous view of, 487 his body, why honorable? 488 has been provided with a fleshly body, for two suggested reasons, 488 origin of his soul, 488‐497 the theory of the pre‐existence of his soul, 488‐491 the advocates, ancient and modern, of this theory of soul pre‐existence, 488, 489 the truth at the basis of soul

assistance, 490 Müller’s view of pre‐existence stated and examined, 490, 491 the creatian theory of his soul, 491‐493 its advocates, 491 Scripture does not teach that God immediately creates his soul, 491 creatianism repulsively false as representing him as not father of his offspring’s noblest part, 492 his individuality, how best explained, 492 the creatian theory of his birth makes God the author of sin, 493 the creatian theory of his birth, certain mediating modifications of, 493 the traducian theory of his birth, 493‐497 the traducian theory, its advocates, 493 the traducian theory

of physical, mental, and moral characteristics, 495, 496 the traducian theory embraces the element of truth in the creatian theory in that it holds to a divine concurrence in the development of the

motives, 506, 507 his will and contrary choice, 507, 508 his will and his responsibility, 509, 510 his responsibility for the inherited selfish preferences of his will, its Scriptural explanation, 510

rooted and grounded in God, 515 created a personal being with power to know and determine self, 515 his natural likeness to God inalienable and the capacity that makes redemption possible, 515 his

finite reflection of God’s moral attributes, 517 his chief endowment, holiness, 517 his original righteousness as taught in Scripture, 517 in what the dignity of his human nature consists, 517 his original righteousness not the essence of his human nature, 518 his original righteousness not a gift from without and after creation, 518 his original righteousness a tendency of affections and will to God, 518 his original righteousness propagable to descendants, 518 his likeness to God, more than the perfect mutual adjustment of his spiritual powers, 519 his fall assigned by some to pre‐existent state, 519 “the image of God” in, was, some say, merely the possibility (Anlage) of real likeness, 519 his individual will not the author of his condition of sin or of holiness, 519 since he originally knew God, must have loved God, 519, 520 primal “image of God,” not simply ability to be like God, but actual likeness, 520 if morally neutral, is a violator of God’s law, 520 the original “image of God” in, more than capacity for religion, 520 scholastics and the Romanist church distinguished between “image” and “likeness” as applied to his first estate, 520 his nature at

civilization, 527 the originally savage condition of, an ill‐founded assumption, 527‐531 the Scriptural account of his original state opposed by those who hold the Positivist theory of the three consecutive conditions of knowledge, 531 the assumption that he must hold fetichism, polytheism, and monotheism in successive steps, if he progresses religiously, contradicted by facts, 531, 532 monotheistic before polytheistic, 531, 532 in some stocks never practiced fetichism, 532 the earliest discovered sepulchral remains of, prove by presence of food and weapons an advance upon fetichism, 532 his theologic thought not transient but rooted in his intuitions and desires, 532 in what sense a law unto himself, 539 as finite needs law, 542 as a free being needs moral law, 542 as a
