MODERATOR’S MESSAGE

Allen Adkins

Beloved Brethren, messengers, and friends. Once again at the direc-

tion of our respective churches we have set in joyful association for fellowship

and counsel, and to make such recom¬mendations as we deem proper and

profitable to our churches.

The Apostle Paul called the Lord’s church (any New Testament

Church) ‘the pillar and ground of the truth” (I Timothy 3:15). We bear a par-

ticular responsibility in respect to the inspired truth of God, unlike that of any

other people on earth.

The question propounded so long ago looms importantly before us

today, ‘If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” (Psalm

11:3)

Society is undergoing a change from the order that we have known

for so long. So-called new moral concepts have all but destroyed the founda-

tions of decency which have meant love for home, respect for country and

obedience to laws.

Religion is undergoing a change and old foundations are being aban-

doned. Predictions are made almost daily and printed in newspapers predicting

the demise and disappearance of churches as congregations within the next

few years. Independent Bible classes, evangelistic associations, and other in-

dependent groups sponsoring missions separate and apart from any church

relationship are springing up every day.

The question of “What shall we do?” confronts Missionary Baptists.

There are some foundations found in the Bible from which we must not depart.

These have sustained Missionary Baptist churches through all the crisis of the

past and if taught and practiced will no doubt serve to preserve old-time Bap-

tist churches in our day.

Though we must at present speak in general terms, foundation prin-

ciples must be sought out and adhered to faithfully.

The problem facing Missionary Baptist churches stems from three

prevalent things: 0) The general acceptance of the universal church idea, (2)

The ecumenical spirit of the age, and (3) The influence of a biased press, radio,

mailed propaganda, and misinformed personal friends.

Let us be zealous to reaffirm our belief in the local character only of

a New Testament church. This is the foundation principle for Christ-honoring

service to God. A false sense of ecumenical brotherhood has lessened the force

of Ephesians 3:21 ‘Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus through all

ages, world without end. “ That sets forth Christian service in church relation-

ship and Christian activities centered around a local New Testament Church.

Let us reaffirm our belief in a doctrinally separated church position

in the world. The grand doctrines of the Bible have been weakened by the

prevailing spirit of “compromise for the sake of Brotherhood.” The Lord’s

churches have been charged with teaching the ‘Whole counsel of God” and the

‘all things” which Christ has commanded. Each doctrine is important and must

be equally emphasized that our churches may not become lopsided and little

more than protestant evangelistic centers in practice on one hand, nor dead pil-

lars of orthodoxy on the other.

Let us reaffirm the principle of associated work among New Testa-

ment churches. We must disregard the trend of the day toward mergers, union-

ization, add centralization, and ever guard the independency and authority of

local New Testament churches under God. No messenger body has any author-

ity over any New Testament church and any concept of such authority must

continually be rejected. The association is the churche9. Messenger meetings

can only make recommendations and offer counsel. There is no higher court of

appeal than a local Baptist Church.

Let us continue to contend for the right of churches to associate and

make use of messengers and committees after the New Testament manner as

they see fit.

Let us preach the gospel and reaffirm all the age-lasting doctrines

and principles laid down in God’s Holy Word. This is necessary if the Lord’s

churches are to survive, AND SURVIVE THEY WILL, UNTIL HE COMES

AGAIN: Jesus said, “...and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates

of hell shall not prevail against it.” (Matthew 16L18)

RESOLUTION

RESOLUTION OF APPRECIATION

Realizing the planning and work involved in making preparations for the

nineteenth meeting of the California Cooperative Association and wish-

ing to express publically our appreciation for this to the First Missionary

Baptist Church, Tulare, California and her great pastor, therefore be it

resolved that we give a standing vote of thanks to this church and pastor

expressing our gratitude.

J. M. Steddum

Dewey C. Caves

L. E. McCalister

Whereas our beloved moderator, Bro. Allen Adkins, has while filling

this office during the 1968-1969 sessions displayed the character and

dignity that mark a truly great Christian as our Moderator, he has at all

times manifested humility, compassion and a true love for the cause of

Christ and his brethren.

Be it therefore resolved that we the messengers of the California Coop-

erative Association give him a standing vote of appreciation for a job

well done.

J. M. Steddurn

Dewey C. Caves

L. E. McCalister

Be it resolved, believing that eternal good is the result of the Annual Pas-

tor’s Conference and is a lasting benefit to the churches and pastors, we do

recommend to the churches of the Cooperative Association of Missionary

Baptist Churches that they pay the lodging of their pastor and his wife to

the annual conference, Oct. 1618 of 1969 at Hume Lake, California.

Pastor’s Conference Committee,

Calvin Isenhower

Dwight Patterson

Kenneth Hooper

Whereas the ABA will convene in Long Beach, California in June, we

resolve that on advertising committee be elected to publicize this great

meeting by sending letters of information about the services; who is to

preach at various times; and to contact preachers and churches of other

cities encouraging them to come early and visit and preach among our

churches. Also that expense incurred in postage and printing be paid from

the Association funds.

We further recommend that Brethren Dale Baldridge, Martin Canavan, Jr.

, and Tim Reed organize a choir to sing at Long Beach using the different

choirs of our churches in the Los Angeles area. We also urge if possible,

that the Northern District Youth Choir sing at Long Beach in formal dress

under direction of Tim Reed.

J. M. Steddum

Dewey C. Caves

L. E. McCalister

Resolved that this messenger body go on record as being opposed to

Universalism in every form. Be it further resolved that we declare that

the teaching, preaching or practicing the modern theory that God has by

passed His Churches and uses men or any group or groups who have

no connection with a New Testament Church, to accomplish His will

and purpose as given in the Great Commission, be declared Heresy and

that those who teach this doctrine are Heretics. Resolved further, that we

recommend to our churches that they be on guard against these men or

groups of men and have no fellowship with them.

Ernest Bennett

Whereas the State Youth Encampment in the past several years has grown

to the extent that much time and planning and equipment must be invested,

it now seems that the sponsoring church should no longer assume the en-

dorsement for this work, but that it actually should be approved by the mes-

sengers to the California Cooperative Association of Missionary Baptists.

Whereas the First Missionary Baptist Church of Antioch has sponsored this

work since its beginning and has experienced the qualified personnel for

this work, and whereas the church has expressed a desire to continue this

endeavor, we therefore request that this messenger assembly in the 1969

session of the California Cooperative Association of Missionary Baptist

Churches, by a majority vote, endorse the First Missionary Baptist Church

of Antioch as the sponsoring Church for a Statewide Youth Encampment

for this Association.

Done by order of the church on March 12, 1969.

Larry Reeves, Moderator

Jeanne Perdue, Clerk

Whereas our churches are growing and the need for additional ministers is

already evident, and because there is an extreme shortage of qualified men

to work in the fields of music, visitation and youth work, be it therefore

RESOLVED that we recommend that our churches urge the young men

of their congregation, that have the qualities that would qualify them for

work in this important area, to seek training and education to properly equip

themselves for this work in the Church.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that whereas we do not normally ordain

our Ministers of Music or Ministers of Visitation that we strongly urge the

Congress of the United States to change the laws dealing with the Selective

Service System to be revised so that our full-time trained ministers of mu-

sic, visitation and/or youth directors can be deferred from military service

because of their full-time work in the Church.

INASMUCH as most denominations do ordain their ministers that fill these

positions be it RESOLVED that we ask that the Local Draft Boards be re-

quired to grant us the same consideration as they do other churches that

have ordained men filling these offices.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a copy of this resolution be sent to

General Hershey and copies be made available to any other officials who

might be affected by this resolution.

(This resolution was unanimously adopted by the California Coopera-

tive Association of Missionary Baptist Churches while in annual session

April 2, 1969, in Tulare, California. )

Whereas, there are many questions arising today among the Lord’s

Churches concerning scriptural Baptism and the Bride of Christ.

Be it resolved that we reaffirm our position on these two vital subjects:

We believe that God sent John the Baptist to admin-

ister heaven’s baptism. From those who received this heaven’s

baptism Jesus called out His Church which has had a continual

succession from that day to this.

The Lord will call out from among these New Testa-

ment Churches a Bride which will rule and reign with Him over

the family of God and the rest of the earth for 1000 years.

Respectfully submitted,

James Wilkins

Dewey C. Caves

Whereas on several occasions during the past year brethren have brought

accusation against preacher brethren who were absent and had no chance

to answer for themselves. Whereas this left a reflection upon the ministry

of these brethren as well as breaking the instruction of Paul in I Timothy

5:19, which states; “Against an Elder not on accusation but before two

or three witnesses.”

Be it therefore resolved that we go on record as deploring this practice

and admonish all not to do it.

Respectfully submitted,

J. Wilkins

HOME MISSIONS

Home Missions are certainly included in the Great Commis-

sion (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8). In a state of over twenty million

people, which is growing daily, the Lord’s churches should be extremely

conscious of the need of doing mission work on the home fields. There

are large numbers of fine cities and rapidly growing communities where

there are no New Testament Churches to bear witness to the resurrected

Christ. Therefore, the churches of the California Cooperative Mission-

ary Baptist Association should intensify their efforts to establish new

churches in these cities and communities.

We recommend that churches which are not supporting State

Missions should prayerfully consider supporting our state mission work.

Churches presently supporting State Missions should give prayerful

consideration toward increasing their support in view of the vast harvest

of souls which is ripe in California.

We further recommend that churches give prayerful consid-

eration to programs such as the California Land for Mission Develop-

ment. Property and buildings are a key to building successful churches.

Such programs may be a real asset to our mission efforts in California.

D. S. Madden

FOREIGN MISSIONS

We, your committee on foreign missions, submit the follow-

ing: As we come ever closer to the second coming of our Christ, we

must press forward with renewed zeal in an effort to reach the lost of

the world. It could very well be that we are at the threshold of our last

great opportunity to preach Christ in foreign lands. Our Lord has said,

‘And the gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a

witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. “

Let us pray for our men who are working in foreign fields, and

may God grant us wisdom and love to support them. As we cooperate

together in this matter our many voices all soundas one when our mis-

sionary preaches God’s great message to the lost.

These are the last days, perhaps the last hours. If we would

hasten the return of our beloved Lord, let us be of one mind as we con-

sider foreign missions.

Let His Word reach the entire world as we say, “Even so come

Lord Jesus.”

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

Inasmuch as the Commission was given to the New Testament

Church, and part of this commission consists of Christian Education,

and since the God-given responsibility is as binding today as it was in

the first century, we humbly recommend that each church consider giv-

ing particular attention to this phase of their ministry.

Our Lord said, ‘Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptiz-

ing them... Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have com-

manded you. “

In carrying out this commission the Church must have the best

qualified teachers. Therefore, we recommend that we utilize the facilities

of the Church-sponsored Schools of California.

We also suggest that our churches invite instructors from our

seminaries, or other qualified men to conduct seminars, such as Sunday

School development, Soul-winning, etc. , to facilitate our goals in Chris-

tian Education.

Christian Education Committee,

CHRISTIAN LITERATURE

We, your committee on Christian Literature submit the follow-

ing:

Christian literature is anything written that exalts Jesus Christ. Very few

of the worlds’ writings does this today. It is therefore vitally important to

preserve and promote Christian Literature.

It is the duty of each church to provide and recommend reading

matter that is doctrinally sound and baptistically oriented.

There are many Missionary Baptist papers published over the

nation that keep our people informed and reflect our doctrinal distinc-

tives. Two of these, the Herald and the Sentinel are published in Califor-

nia. We recommend them to our churches for their continued support.

We hereby go on record as affirming our belief that. A.B. A.

series of literature and church teaching aids is the best available in the

world. We recommend the greater use of these materials.

We recognize the Bible as our final and sufficient authority in

everything. We encourage everyone to make the Bible first in their read-

ings and all other writings secondary.

Submitted by your committee on Christian Literature.

MEMORIAL COMMITTEE

We, your Memorial Committee, desire to honor those who have

gone on before us and have left a monument in the lives they lived for the

Lord here on earth to inspire our work as Missionary Baptists.

We wish to recognize that in death God may receive the glory. Job

1:21, ‘The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name

of the Lord.”
