The New School Preacher
"This go out with, 1837, J. T. Mitchell was preordained to the Jacksonville build, and we had a blessed new start of religion in the build, and a person were particularly to the Minster. At one of our quarterly meetings offer was a cleric who was what was called a New-School cleric, and he was pleasant to work any anywhere. In the function of the mourners presented themselves at the altar of prayer, he would babble to them, and motivation them to "refashion their aim," and definitely them that all who changed their aim were unquestionable Christians. I clearly saw he was achievement mischief, and I went truthfully overdue him [Cartwright counseled the mourners overdue him], and told them [the mourners] not to depend on a refashion of aim in order to become a Christian, but to consider in the Lord Jesus Christ with a extract unto virtue, and they indigence be saved. For that reason I had to argue against the imprecise sentiments inculcated by this New-School cleric. It is very individual to me to stroke these cerebral and home-manufactured preachers do not understand the marked, Bible coaching of the new beginning rest. They say man is a free agent in so far as to refashion his aim, and in variable his aim he is constituted a new creature. For that reason he makes himself a Christian by his own act sans the Manifestation of God."
