of Fundamental Truths is intended simply as a basis of fellowship among us (i.e., that we all speak the same thing, I Cor. 1:10; Acts 2:42). The phraseology employed in this Statement is not inspired nor contended for, but the truth set forth is held to be essential to a full-gospel ministry. ... All believers are entitled to and should ardently expect and earnestly seek the promise of the Father, the baptism in the Holy Ghost and fire, according to the command of our lord Jesus Christ.

... Battie's Treatise on Madness is an especially important work in medical history because it is "the first by a psychiatrist who could draw on his experiences with a large number of patients . . ." (Hunter and MacAlpine, 300 Years of Psychiatry).

This was the more novel because the students were not bound by the centuries-old tradi-tion which prevailed in Bethlehem and which was gospel for the profession. Besides ... bigot, incapable in his own apprehension of being pardoned by infinite mercy, or predefined by infinite justice to eternal misery before he had a being, the moping lover, the motionless widow or mother bereft of her children, may at fiat view be afcribed. ... ...
