“ANNUAL ADDRESS”

By Dwight Patterson

“AN OPEN DOOR”

SCRIPTURE READING: Revelation 3:8, “I know thy works: behold I have

set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little

strength, and hast kept my word, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied

my name.”

Messengers of the churches composing the Co-operative Association of

California, visitors, and distinguished guests:

It is with great pleasure and a honored privilege that I will try to serve as

your moderator this year.

Messengers of the Lord’s Churches have congregated here today, to deliber-

ate, council together and to make recommendations, that we believe have

been directed by the leadership of the Holy Spirit.

We are not here to settle differences (if there be any) between churches,

or between brethren or between brethren and churches, but to promote the

cause of Christ through cooperation.

May I reflect the purpose of our coming together in this meeting as found

in our yearbook, Article II--

‘The object of this Association is to encourage co-operation and Christian

activity among the churches, to promote interest in and encourage Missions

on a New Testament basis among all people, to stimulate interest in Chris-

tian literature, general benevolence, and Christian education and to provide

a medium through which the churches may cooperate in these enterprises.”

The Lord spoke to the church at Philadelphia, saying that He had set before

them an open door.

The Lord’s Churches in California have an open door before them.

It is with thanksgiving in our hearts and pride in the churches that we look

back over the short twenty-two year history and see how God blessed us.

At the organization of the California Co-operative Association of Mission-

ary Baptists Churches on February 12, 1952 there were 17 churches. They

had baptized 309 for that year. Bro. C. C. Middleton was elected Moderator

and Bro. Martin Canavan was elected clerk, and he has served faithfully in

this office for these twenty-two years.

Approximately 90 days later on May 13, 1952 thirty churches met at Armona

for their first official Associational Meeting of the Cooperative Association.

Those of our preacher brethren, that help to formulate and to put into prac-

tice the articles of agreement, that have outstripped us in this life having

gone on to be with the Lord are, Brethren L. M. Branch, M. B. Hubbard, C.

R. Lyons, M. J. Duncan, and J. C. Patterson. These great men of faith have

given us the torch as it were, may we keep it burning brightly until we too

are relieved of our duty.

Our churches are strong in Spirit, fervent in zeal and rich in love, love for

the lost and love for the truth.

Our 1971 “Yearbook” list 100 churches, with a membership of 12,518 and

1,503 having been baptized that year. $1,361,774.94 was given to the cause

of Christ. Truly God has blessed His churches!

FIRST, THERE IS THE OPEN DOOR OF MISSION WORK:

We are the most populous State in the Nation. Truly the fields are white unto

harvest.

I say unto you, if God has burdened your heart for mission work, then lift up

your eyes and look on the fields in California. Though we have made great

stride in these short 22 years yet there are thousands of cities and towns

without a New Testament Church in them. The Lord has an open door before

us to preach the Gospel to the Negro and Spanish people. Oh, how we need

to pray the Lord of the harvest to send forth labourers into the vineyard! We

need to raise our voice and say to those that are standing idle, ‘Come Over

and Help Us. “

We have the golden opportunity through California Mission Development

to join hands one with another in helping to secure property and build build-

ings for our mission points and small churches.

In these days of inflation and high prices we cannot expect a mission point

to secure property and become self-supporting in a year or two. We must co-

operate together if new and realistic goals are reached. Think what we could

accomplish if all of the 12, 000 Missionary Baptist would give $1.00 per

month to this mission program. Why can’t this become a reality? I say that it

can if we the messengers of the Lord’s Churches in California will challenge

our churches when we go back home to see the possibility of bringing Glory

and Honor to the Lord through this means.

SECOND THE OPEN DOOR OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION:

With our two great schools in our State and with men and women dedicated

to the task of teaching those who would give their lives to fuller service for

the Lord, our work will continue to go forward.

Our schools afford sound fundamental teaching by sound baptist. So to you,

young men, who are preparing for a life of service in the ministry, look no

farther for a firm foundation of truth to build upon, it is here.

I say to you young men and women, our schools cannot be surpassed by any

in the nation. Therefore young men and women, stay in the west.

THIRD THERE IS THE OPEN DOOR IN YOUTH WORK:

One of the highlights of our work is our annual Youth Encampments. Many

have been saved, lives have been surrendered to the Lord through our youth

work.

May we continue to put strong emphasis upon our Church sponsored Youth

Encampments, that many will come to know the Lord and find their place of

service in a New Testament Church.

I pray for the day when we can have a camp for Missionary Baptist Youth,

that will be available for young people, not for a few weeks out of the year

but for 52 weeks in the year.

The work ahead will be hard, and the obstacles will be trying, but by the help

of the Lord and co-operation one with another we can succeed.

LAST THERE IS THE OPEN DOOR OF FELLOWSHIP:

We have the opportunity to show our love one for another in the Spirit of

fellowship and co- operation as we take care of the Lord’s business.

We can show to our home churches that have sent us to this meeting that we

are worthy of their confidence by conducting ourselves as becometh Chris-

tian men and women. We can show to the City of Tulare that we are Chris-

tian Ladies and Gentlemen in these meetings both in the Auditorium, and in

the cafes.

We have the opportunity to set an example for others to follow. Those across

the nation and around the world, yes even to the next generation. (If the Lord

should delay His coming.)

Truly the eyes of the world are upon us today. What we do here at the mes-

senger meeting will go down in our records and no doubt baptist history

will reflect either good or bad our actions here. Not only will our actions be

recorded in our yearbook for others to see but they will be recorded in the

archives of Heaven, and we as men, the leaders of our churches will have to

give an account some day.

With this solemn warning, may we then, with Godly fear, and a deep sense

of reverence approach the Lord’s Business that is at hand.

DOCTRINAL STATEMENT

1. We believe in the verbal inspiration and infallibility of the whole Bible

as originally written, and that the Bible is the all sufficient rule of faith and

practice, II Timothy 3:16,17.

2. We believe in a personal, triune God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit,

equal in Divine perfection, Matthew 28:19.

3. We believe in the Genesis account of creation, Genesis 1.

4. We believe in the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, Matthew 1:20.

5. We believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ, John 10:30.

6. We believe His crucifixion and suffering was substitutionary and vi-

carious, II Corinthians 5:21.

7. We believe in the bodily resurrection and ascension of Christ and the

bodily resurrection of His saints, I Corinthians 15.

8. We believe in the premillenial second coming of Christ, personal and

bodily, as the crowning event of the Gentile age, Acts 1:11.

9. We believe the Bible doctrine of eternal punishment of the finally im-

penitent, Matthew 25:46.

10. We believe the church of Jesus Christ is a congregation of scripturally

baptized believers that each church is independent, and that no other ecclesi-

astical body may exercise authority over it. We believe that the Great Com-

mission was given to the churches only.

11. We believe that all co-operating bodies are and properly should be the

servants of the churches.

12. We believe that the Scriptures teach that there has been a succession of

true churches adhering to the doctrines and practices of the New Testament

from the time of Christ to this day, and that the churches of this Association

are so identified.

13. We believe that baptism, to be valid, must be administered by a scrip-

tural Baptist Church.

14. We believe that the Lord’s Supper is to be administered within the mem-

bership of the local New Testament Church as a memoial of the Lord’s death,

until He comes again, I Corinthians 11:26.

FOREIGN MISSION REPORT

We, your Foreign Mission Committee submit the following:

As Missionary Baptist Churches, we believe the responsibility as well as

the authority of the Great Commission rests upon each local church. This

Commission is declared by our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in Matthew

28:19-20.

We are not only instructed to make disciples, but baptize them and teach

them all of the commands of the Lord.

Many opportunities have availed themselves to the Churches of the Coop-

erative Association of M.ssionary Baptists of California, in various fields

throughout the world. These opportunities increase our responsibility to car-

ry out the full commission. This entails involvements with Laborers, Money

and Faith.

Our main concern is to work with and pray for laborers as they enter Mis-

sion Fields.

Respectfully submitted by,

D. S. Madden

M. Heckler

Ron Cowger

HOME MISSION REPORT

We of the Home Missions Committee encourage better contacts between

churches and missionaries, both in written communications and in personal

contacts, to help advance the cause of missions. We offer the challenge of

a goal to be reached within the next five years, that is that our Missionary

Baptist Cooperative work in California grow to 300 churches and missions.

Respectively submitted,

William Havens

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

We, your committee on Christian Education, offer the following sugges-

tions:

Christian education is second only to the all-important task of winning souls

to Christ and baptizing them. Every means possible should be used (ac-

cording to God’s Word) to provide an education in Biblical teachings that

will enable every child of God to be successful for the cause of Christ. We

recommend that each church realize the task that is set before us and not be

guilty of just making disciples for the sake of numbers, but carry out all of

the commission that the Lord gave His church. We recommend the graded

system of Sunday School teaching and support the idea of basic doctrinal

teaching of each new convert that he may not ‘be ashamed” or be found

lacking when confronted with the devices that Satan uses to destroy Chris-

tian effort. Each church of the Lord Jesus Christ should carefully evaluate

the methods of our teaching andthen approachthem with new zealand press

forward to the very best for the cause of Christ.

We recommend also that all of the churches in our affiliated work vigorously

support with prayer and finance our church sponsored Missionary Baptist

Schools.

Christian Education Committee,

Charles Denney

Ray Bynum

Larry Reeves

CHRISTIAN LITERATURE

The challenge of God to all Christians sends us to the Holy Word of God for

our Divinely inspired working orders. It is His desire for all of His children

to be full grown and mature soldiers. To do so we must search the word. We

must study to show ourselves approved unto God, workmen who need not

bow our heads in shame, but workers able to rightly divide the word of God.

(II Timothy 2:15) The thorough search of the word of God and application

thereof to our lives will indeed enable us to stand as perfect, mature, (Mat-

thew 5:48) and fully furnished workers of God. (II Timothy 3:16-17)

We believe the literature published by the Baptist Sunday School Commit-

tee of the American Baptist Association is a valuable teaching aid in the

study of the scriptures. We believe it is sound and true to the Bible. We also

emphasize the need to always make all teaching aids conform to and be true

to the Word of God.

We encourage the support of religious papers published by our Missionary

Baptist brethren which present Missionary Baptist beliefs and practices.

We earnestly request that our Missionary Baptist Brethren encourage and

promote the reading and study of the Bible and Bible related books and

study material which presents Jesus Christ as man’s only hope.

Respectively submitted,

L. T. Fiser, Jr.

James B. Powers

Jerry Waymire

RESOLUTION

Whereas, many so-called “Christians” oriented groups and movements are

flourishing on our High School and College Campuses,

Whereas, many of our Missionary Baptist High School and College students

are being exposed to the teachings, beliefs, and tenets of these groups and

movements,

Whereas, some concern has been expressed by our Missionary Baptist Young

People pertaining to their envolvement with such groups or movements,

Therefore, be it resolved that we encourage our Missionary Baptist Young

People to seek fellowship with other Missionary Baptist Young People and

any Group, Movement, or Fellowship under the sponsorship of a local Mis-

sionary Baptist Church.

Be it furtner resolved, that we encourage our sister churches to provide the

wholesome and constructive fellowship needed by our Missionary Baptist

Young People, as well as the necessary teaching relative to the Local New

Testament Church and its relation with other Groups or Movements.

MEMORIAL COMMITTEE REPORT

In this life we face many separations and sad goodbys. We thank God that

He gave these loved ones to us. We treasure their memory and anxiously

await the resurrection. The Apostle Paul said, “For me to live is Christ, and

to die is gain.” Phil. 1:21. We praise God and say amen, The Lord giveth and

the Lord taketh away- - -Blessed be the name of the Lord.
