A ROACH, Manager 1200 Heidt Street End of Waverley Car Line PHONE 3422-W COLUMBIA, S. C. Watch Our Windows for the Latest and Best Models at Lowest Prices. REV. L E. LOWERY'S COLUMN. Tho following lu an editorial writ Icu for The Watchman aud Defender liut us Professor Gregory delivered hit lecture two or three times in Colum bia, and In us many different p-luces I thought that it would be well to rc produce it in The Indicator for thc benefit of its readers. The Bahai Movement. On the Hf LU Sunday in January the editor worshipped at the Sydney Park C. M. E. Church in Columbiu by a special invitation ol thu pastor, Kev. ti. b\ Hayguod, D. D. Arriving at the church beioro the hour tor beginning the services, we were usked to take a beut in Hie pulpit, which ww did. While sitting lhere luciug the congre gation ,aud watching the people as they entered the temple ol worship, we no ticed one of the ushers us he con ducted a stranger to a trout seat. The stranger was a mau, aud he was not pi'k'i/oscbsiug m his appearance. He looked ordinary, lie sui quietly und listuued to a good sermon. Ile had previously arranged with the pastor tu denver a tree lecture iu Syduty Park Church at 4 o'clock p. m., aud at the close of the sermon. Pastor liuyguod introduced lue stranger us rrot'. Luuis G. Gregory o? Washing ton, D. C., and requested him to speak of his lecture. Then Prof. Gregory arusu, und, m a good, clear voice, he stated that at 4 o'clock he would dis cuss the principles of "The JLkihul Movement," aud iuvited everybody in Columbiu to come out, and hear him. But when we heard Dr. Haygood say that "Professor Gregory of Wash ington, D. C., will say a word," then oar treacherous memory by associa tion recalled the fact that about' 15 years ago, when we wero stationed at Old Bethel in Charleston, a man by that same name came to that city, and delivered several lectures on the bahai Religion in some of the churches and halls. At that time there was a brilliant young lawyer in Charleston who was a member of Uki Bethel. His parents before him were members of this church. This young lawyer was christened in this church and grew up in the Sunday School, became a v.:em ber and a trustee of the church. This young lawyer took hold of this new religion, and iri^d to master lt. We heard him deliver an address in 014 Bethel at a platform service OH a Sabbath night, and his subject was 'Love." And this is the principle doc trine of the Bahai religion. His ad dn&?s was beautiful and eloquent, and impressive. And this young lawyer continued to wrestle with this Bahai religion, trying to master it, until he completely lost his mind, and had to be brought to the insane asylum here in Columbia. But what is "The Bahai Movement or Religion?" We heard Professor Gr?gory at Sydney Park on the ?fth Sunday afternoon in Columbia, and can truly say Cur him that he was really eloquent and forceful. He held the close attention of his audience for more than an hour. And these are the principles of his religion as he taught them: "The Search for Truth; The One ness of Humanity; the Unity of Re ligions; Religion und Science Agree; Equality of Men and Women; Aban donment of Prejudice; A Universal Language; Universal Education; Uni versal Peace; An International Tribu nal; Solution of the Economic Prob lem; The Power of tho Holy Spirit." The principles seem to be all right', but the Lord Jesus Christ is not recog nized in them, and any religion that has no Christ in it, is not worthy of the attention of intelligent Christian people. And any attempt to teach, enforce and build up u religion with out Christ will be an utter failure. The Bahai religion teaches love, but it is not the love that Christ taught. It is not the love that the Apostles taught, lt is not the love that is pro mulgated by Christianity. It seems to us to be a head religion, and not a heart religion. Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews, was a man who belived j in, and taught the Bahai religion, but Christ told him that he must be born again. And no man can love God and 1 his neighbor without being converted. ? But another word concerning the young lawyer who was brought to the asylum. After he was brought here his parents wrote us to visit him as often as possible ,and we did so. The first time we called to see him he held in his hand a little pamphlet, and we asked him for it. He readily gave lt to us, and when we examined It, wo found it to be a book on the bahai religion. We took it from him and brought it home, knowing that it was this that caused him to lose his ufynd. He eventually died 'in th/e i asylum, and we took his body home to Charleston, assisted at the funeral, and followed him to the grave. But while this young man embraced the Bahai religion, he never left his church, and his body was taken back to the church of hiB parents and to the church of his childhood, and from this church he was buried. This is ?what the Bahai religion did for a bril Han young lawyer. Professor Gregory spoke ?evora times ia Columbia, and each time li waa shrewd enough to coiw.'ul h ia rea purpose. Ho display ec' cousidorabl sagacious judgment in the word in anti presentation of his new docirim Hut while the people admired h ?y ora lory, they failed tu accept his leach ing. The impression lie seemed ti have made was short lived, and som passed away. Hut there may h. a fi w who like the young lawyer referrer to above, who will follow thu pro lessor. I. K. L.
