Editor ,News-Decord.
• Slit, -Mr. John Ransford's second
letter an answer whiner
enneceseary. There elm be no doubt
jiti'ttte minds of most people that in
the spii•it in which he has written he
lies exposed himself rather than
. those he attacks eo bitterly. Per-
bonally1 regret the unen t bible posi-
• tints in which • Mr. Ranstord hits
placed himself" diefcire the _public.
At one time he was a strong 'advocate
ett the very doctrines he is uow oppos-
ing eo bitterly, end so ineffectually.
There is a strong, and I believe ti-uth-
'-ful, impression in the town that it'
Mr. Itanstord had tnilowed 1418 con•
aonscietitious convictions, he would
•. have never given them up; end it is
tut Ineturicai fact that the most on -
scrupulous opormenteof the truths
4of the Reformation, were often, those
whose etroseistices. had been reached,
but .11ro acted against light livid -
knowledge. That the Lord Would.
. give Mr. Itansford repentance to the
•• aoknewledging Of the truth is my
•
earnest prayer.
'But not only thle, Mr. Rails ford has
manifested his fitter incompetencY
tor. the • work lie has undertaken.
,1-Ite.tWo letters are 9. series of blund-
ers and misrepresentations. I woultt
itifoeut Mr. Ranstord,
• 1st, That Brethren first started in
2nd. That Mr. Darby was not one
- of The oriental nucleus.
.3rfi. That the Millerites have not
• end never bed anything to do with
Brethren.: "The Millerites.". are the'
"Adventists," followers of William
Miller, and are as distinct from
Brethren as they are from Mr. Rails:
ford.
I will now look at Mr. Ransford's
_ use ot. Scripture, and here he is no
more at home than on the historical
spiestions.. 1 (rote from his th•st
letter :• "St. 'Paul fond error, fdse
doctrine, schism in Corinth. Did he
advise turther schism and tel those
who were sound in the faith to -cut
themselves Off from those who were
not? Let St. Paul answer. 'Rim
that is weak in the faith receive ye
but not to -doubtful disputations,'"
What could Mr. It. have been think-
ing of to have got into such a neat. of
• blunders? In the, first place will
Mr. Rarrsford find where Paul wrote
that .verse to the Saints at Corinth?
!Phut verse was written to the
ltomans, end 1 suppose, Mr. Editor,
even the Sunday Sehool childran
• could tell ns that it is the first verse
'011ie fourteenth chapter of Romans.
So much for the first blunder. But
now notice the teaching that follows
. from this misplaced Scripture. "Er-
, ror," "hal- doctrine" and "echiem,"
• apeoeding to Me. R. are only being
"weak an the faith." A man falls •
. into error in practice, gets drunk,
' etc., . but you must not toueb• him.
Ile.is "Weak in the faith" according
to this theology, end you must not
separate from him 1 In the EpiAtle•
to the Corinthians St.. Paul 'gave
. direct instructions to put a "Mimi -
eaten" awny ; and that fornicator
turned out as a real Christian, being
afterwards restored. Thin. was a
Mistake according to this teaching.
Ile was only "week in the faith 1"
Ido not for one moment, believe Mr.
- R. woulft accept this legitimate in
ference from his own teaching, nor
do I charge It on him, only es Allow
ing when a men is incompetent for
the work he assumes, he is sure to
fall into grave and ludicrous bund -
ens. Moreover, any person Of ordin-
ary intelligence can see Mr. R. has
onntradieted the teaching of the
tpistle, tor In the cline of e, ror in
practice in the 5th chapter, t
erring men wee separated from them,.
find they from Inure I Cor. V. (Sea
&,U Mee. II," 14,15„ where Christiana.

lowaiipAnd peace, I firmly believe;
but we must remember "God'is light;
and in Him is no darknesit at all,"
I John 1, 5, and "separation from
evil is God s principle of unity."
Indeed elr.' Rensfoed flatly con,
teat -nets' himself on. this very point.
Ile says "a Christian should untioubt
edly seporate himself from all that is
evil." Now this is "sweeping enough
surely, but Mr. Itansferd immediately
goes_nn:_to penee,as__see:__Intye seen,,
that . it is contrary to St. Paul's
teaching to separate from evil. Ile
first of all makes a positive state
merit and then sets to work to prove
that statement is wrong!
I wield say, Mr. Editor, that one
"weak in the raithi" is not an erring
Christian; but rather an nnintel
ligent one, who is apt to stumble at
the things done by more intelligent
Christians end who has therefore. to
be guarde:1 arid, tenderly cared it3r.

tion from evil,- 1 IWOr looked at.
%V hat -we desireis to hold to what is
Scripture all, and 'to separate frotn
nothing hut what we have the au-
thority of the word of Gott to separate
from. When Paul, in I Cor., 1, 10-13)
states positively that .denotninatione
are wrong, and 'that we should not
dell ourselves cater other names, we
believe be meant what Ire said; and
therefore we will take no name, but
that which is Seriptural. And let
Me say, where does the Word of God
say there are different classes of
brethren ? IV is a fallacy.
when Paul says, it II Tim., II, 19,
--"Let---7everyone--thateenaineth the
name of Christ depart from in-
iquity." We believe be meant what
he said, And therefore while we can-
not mix up in what we believe to be
unseriptnral, we desire to bold. all'
Christians aft our brothren in the
Lord; anti to walk with them as tar
as we ean with' a good. conscience,
iteeording to the Word of God.
Now. for another contradiction.
Mr. R. evidently forgot in his second
letter, what he had written in his
first. In his first letter he states
that .we teoch : "That a Christian's
paramount duty is to instantly and.,
torever cot himself off from worship-
• ping with, and so tar as lie is at from
comitittnicating with, any. who are,
let it be 'noted, not Plymouth teeth.

'rho plain English (011ie is we "for-
ever 'cut' ourselves off from fermi
inunicating• With any other Christians
hut intraelves, so far as we are able,
and this_is our great Bin, but in his
second epistle,' one great sin is com-
municating with those very Chris-
tians, -waylaying, them, &c,,, hicb
according to the first epistle, we had
ceased forever to dol Mr. 4tarattord
hits proved to his own satisfaction we
'are bad people,' whether we do, or we
don't. :Lest week It was we don't
Communicate with other Chriatidhs,
and that, was had, very bad ; but.this
.week, we do.cotinnunicate with other.
Christians, and Mr. R. then says,
Why that is worse, far worse 1
Mr. 'Editor, you would not have
splice to strew up all the inconaist•
enciea,of the letters, and with one
point' nice.° I will close. Mr. Rens-
forte says : "Try these Plymouth
'Brethren, and you will find them as
I have found thetn—talse—false to
their profession.; false to each other,;
and Oise to all around them,.
NV tele . there have been failures
arnongst Brethren,as amongst others,
I am convinced this sweeping whole.
Hale charge will elate:est to every.
body how far Mr. Itanstorel ie removed
from a true Christian 'Spirit. Such
statements as these will lose fee him
the respect of ail upright and right-
minded people. •Moreover, if he bad
hart gond sound discretion, he would
never have teken up a 'sittrjeet, which
abler men by far than he would have
gone into very cautiously. For Mr.
,Reneford, personally, I have no feel-
ing but of sorrow 'and an earnest
.desire that he may be recovered from
the snare he has fallen into. I
regret that I have load to expose him

mit 1 must come to what he says
of the doctrines. And here again he
has given a caricature whet we
really teach. Take the' question of
judgment: We hold what theeLnrd
Jesus, teaches in John V., 24 t "Ver-
ily, verily 1 ay unto ey'oii, he that
heareth my word, and believeth on
Him that sent me, hath eyerlasting
life ; and shall not come into eon
demnation ; but is passed from death
unto life." Now it is well known
that the Greek word translated "000 -
dg -inflation" is eke/sere° and in the Re.
vied Version is properly translated
"judgment;" so We believe that the
Christian • will not come into judg-
ment. Ori the other hand Scripture
states plainly that "we must all
appear before the judgment seatf
Christ., that every one may receiver
the things done in his body, accord
ing to that he bath •done, whether it
be good or bad," II Cor., V., 10.
This corresponds to 1 Cor., III, 11 15,
where the- works are tried, not the
person ; and if the Christian has done
good, he receives a reward ; if bad,
he suffers 'Intis, "but he himself shall,
he sitved yet Ao as by fire," Thife
judgmeneseat for the trial ofthe Chris-
tian's work is in hereven,,"the day" --
when Christ comes for His saints,
These., IV, 15-17, Whereas. the
great white•throne judgment is for
the wicked deed only, the righteous
having been raised oven a thousand
years previoeslye and. there we are
told, "they were judged." In the
eoft event seat few the Christians it is
'4-aiteelevoilly-man may receive."
Am, candid refuter of Rev, XX can
sea elearly that • tine righteous are
raised over. a 11431184nd yeare-before
the great white throne juilguterite,
and therefore de not come into it. •
