...Over many a U. S. radio, tuned in on Canada's station CFRB two Sundays ago, sounded the brusque, heavy voice of Rev. Dr. Thomas Todhunter Shields, 61-year-old Toronto Baptist. With reforming Fundamentalist fervor he was preaching to 2,500 people who crammed old Jarvis Street Baptist Church, and to 5,000 more in overflow meetings. Dr. Shields lashed out at the "liquor traffic," flayed the Premier of Ontario, kinetic young Mitchell F. Hepburn, who took office last July when beer and wine became legal after 18 years of Prohibition. Cried Dr. Shields: "We need to rally...
...home. In the past few years money-giving among U. S. Protestant sects has suffered an ungodly decline. Last week the problem of missions and money made news throughout two groups, one strongly conservative, one strongly liberal. ¶The Independent Board for Presbyterian Foreign Missions was founded so that Fundamentalists could give money to send out Fundamentalist missionaries.

...acquainted with the facts might assume from the article that those Presbyterians not allied with the so-called "Fundamentalist" group were automatically to be classed as "Liberals." This is not true, for there are thousands of the approximately 10,000 ministers of the Presbyterian church, U. S. A., who are true to every doctrine mentioned, i. e., Virgin Birth. Inspiration of the Scriptures, etc.. who nevertheless condemn the rebel Westminster...
...Fundamentalists in the Presbyterian Church stoutly believe that the Virgin Birth, the Inspiration of the Scriptures, the Substitutionary Atonement, the Bodily Resurrection of Our Lord and the Historicity of His Miraculous Life are true, unique, not to be tampered with. Never tired of fighting for their beliefs, they were especially incensed last year when the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions failed to repudiate Author Pearl Buck who, as a missionary teacher in China, was decidedly a tamperer. Led by Dr. John Gresham Machen, who five years ago left Princeton Seminary because it was too liberal and helped found Westminster Theological...
