"SUNDAY SCHOOL"
Under the heading (Gospel Advocate of Aug. 9, 1934), "Obnoxious Critics and Opposers," a writer says: If you propose "the supplying of adequate facilities for Bible teaching in the Sunday school capacity, you meet with ‘fiery darts’ from almost every direction."
Reply: This is another admission that you have a "Sunday-school," a thing that has been constantly denied "our having." This is another item that enters into "the doctrinal tenents and human articles of faith," that divide churches and "drown men’s souls in perdition," together with our "Pastor" or "minister," a thing likewise unknown in the word of God. And Jesus says, "Every plant which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up." (Mt. 15:13.) And this he said in connection with, "Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?" (V. 3) So it is no wonder that the critics who seek to uproot these noxious plants, that are ruining the vineyard of the Lord, are called "obnoxious critics" by the enemies of the Lord. If you can find your plant, the "Sunday school," in the Father’s Book, why not do so and stop the mouths of these critics that are hurling these "‘fiery darts’ from almost every direction" into your camp?
