Debate at Monticello, Ky. May 5-8.
H. B. Taylor, as a polemic, is highly honored among the Baptists. C.R. Nichol is a forceful speaker, a logical reasoner, a cultured and refined Christian gentleman
Taylor affirmed general church propositions. In defining the terms of his proposition Taylor said: "'Church' means an assembly of baptized believers. The word 'church' is always is always used in the local sense. 'Church' and 'kingdom' are not identical. 'Church' is a republic, while 'kingdom' is a monarchy. The kingdom is entered by the new birth, but the church is entered by baptism, Matt. 28:18-20."
Bro. Nichol answered: "The word 'church' is sometimes used in the general sense (Acts 9:31) and 'church' and 'kingdom' are synonymous expressions (Matt. 16:19-20)." And said, "There was not Baptist church on earth until 1607 and the Miss. Bap. church began in 1832."
On the origin of the church Taylor made the temple argument: 1) David prepared the material; 2) Solomon built the temple; 3) the sacrifice was offered; 4) then the Shekinah light came into it. The church: 1) John the Baptist prepared the material; 2) Christ built the church; 3) the sacrifice (Christ) was offered; 4) then the H.S. came into it.
Bro. Nichol answered: If David, Solomon, sacrifice and light were types, of what or whom was Hiram, a heathen artisan (II Chron. 2), a type? The temple was built and destroyed, rebuilt and destroyed , and built again and destroyed again - of what was that a type? Mr. Taylor was so hard pressed on this point that he dropped the temple argument.
