A. F. Thurman vs Edgar Pippin (Missionary Baptist)
April 14, 1921
Medicine Mound, Texas

(By A. C. Huff)

Debate held at Medicine Mound, Texas between Edgar Pippin (M. B.) And bro. A. F. Thurman.

One night was given to the establishment of the church and two nights to apostasy, with Pippin leading; two nights Thurman lead on the design of baptism.

Pippin had debated with George Searcy and A. S. Bradley, but he acknowledged that bro. Thurman made the strongest arguments on apostasy he had ever heard. A hard shell Baptist preacher who was present said he had heard C. R. Nichol and others of our best men, and that bro. Thurman presented his arguments in the most convincing manner that he had ever heard.

The brethren were all delighted with the way bro. Thurman did his work. His strength lies in his depending on the word of God for defense and support of itself. The debate was pleasant and people were delighted with the way it was conducted. A Baptist man and his wife were baptized soon after the debate.
