  • Campbellite and Restorationist Traditions in the South
    CAMPBELLITE AND RESTORATIONIST TRADITIONS IN THE SOUTH (Converted to html from Lippy, Charles H. Bibliography of Religion in the South. Macon GA: Mercer University Press, 1985. Used with permission of Mercer University Press) THE FRENZIED EXCITEMENT of nineteenth-century frontier revivalism not only helped to imprint the evangelical style on much of Southern religion, but also led to the emergence of an interest in returning to the practices of primitive Christianity. Both commonsense rationalists and emotional revivalists sought to return to a presumably more pure Christian practice untainted by the accretions of time that had corrupted authentic Christianity. While this restorationist impulse attracted many campmeeting advocates, including Barton W. Stone, in time it coalesced around Alexander Campbell (1788-1866). Restorationists discarded denominational labels at first as signs of division within the one church, preferring to call themselves simply "Christians." In time, however, the followers of Alexander Campbell grew into one of the first indigenous denominations in the United States, the Disciples of Christ or the Christian Church. As the movement grew, it enlarged its vision to include a conviction that American society itself could be transformed into a culture replicating the pure simplicity of New Testament Christian communities even as it extended its following into both the North and the South. For many years Campbell maintained an unofficial headquarters in Bethany, West Virginia. As with other groups, the sectional divisions over slavery brought tension to the movement, which combined with disagreement over religious practices (such as the use of musical instruments in worship, the support of ecumenical missionary societies, and the like) to split the developing denomination in two by 1906, 276 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF RELIGION IN THE SOUTH though for all practical purposes the emerging schism was obvious at least two decades earlier.

Imbler: Journalism’s Deep Roots in the Stone-Campbell Movement Journalism’s Deep Roots in the Stone-Campbell Movement John M. Imbler As the recently constituted nation was expanding beyond the settled northeast, in- formation on a variety of subjects was carried by an increasing number of newly estab- lished local presses. Presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin observes, “With few public entertainments in rural America (c. 1850s), villages and farmers regarded the spo- ken word and political debates as riveting spectator sports.” She continues, “Following such debates, the dueling remarks were regularly printed in their entirety in newspapers then reprinted in pamphlet form…where they provoked discourse over a wide space and prolonged time.”1 While her analysis refers to the general population, it also reflects the character of the Stone-Campbell people who were heavily invested in publications.

  • Churches of Christ and the Lord's Supper
    Churches of Christ and the Lord’s Supper: Twentieth Century Perspectives* John Mark Hicks Lipscomb University Nashville, Tennessee Alexander Campbell’s famous sentence, “In the house of God there is always the table of the Lord,” embodies the essence of Stone- Campbell Eucharistic theology and practice.1 This simple sentence describes the weekly celebration of the Lord’s Supper on the Lord’s Day in the presence of God as a joyous feast. The “house of God” is the weekly assembly of the saints where God and his people meet. Those assembled “must feel” themselves as “specially [sic] in the presence of the Lord, not as on other days or in other places.”2 Campbell possessed “a deep and solemn conviction that the [assembly] is the house of God—the temple of the Holy Spirit—and that we are, especially and emphatically, in the presence of the Lord while we are engaged in his worship.” Every occasion of the “assemblies of the saints” is a “meeting with the Lord.”3 Against the backdrop of Scottish Presbyterianism and Independents as well as in the context of a typological hermeneutic, “table” is a significant theological and liturgical term for Campbell. Extending the typological hermeneutic by recalling the language of Leviticus 23, Campbell calls the day of “assembly” a “day of rest, of peace, of joy, a festival sacred to the Lord.”4 Presbyterian sacramental solemnities, whether Scottish or American, were often characterized by the intense practice of penitential spiritual disciplines, including _________ *This paper was presented at the meeting of the Stone- Campbell Dialogue in June 2007 at University Christian Church, Austin, Texas.

  • 59-A Firm Foundation Copy
    A Firm Foundation “However, the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness” (2 Tim. 2:19). The phrase “Firm Foundation” is the name of a religious journal among brethren, published in Austin, Texas and originating in either the latter part of the 19th century or early part of the 20th. The journal was champion in opposing the “Gospel Advocate” (a journal also among brethren, published in Nashville, Tennessee). The latter paper espoused the doctrine that Baptists (or others practicing immersion) who were baptized to “obey Christ” need not be “rebaptized” when they sought fellowship in churches of Christ. The controversy raged for several years. The phrase “How firm a foundation” is part of a stanza we sing from a beloved hymn. Paul’s words from 2 Timothy 2:19 was not written to promote the rebaptism teaching (however accurate that may have been); it was written following his exposing of two brothers, Hymenaeus and Philetus, whose profane babblings said “the resurrection is already past.” God’s “firm foundation,” something that would endure through the years, was this seal: “The Lord knoweth them that are his;” and, “Let everyone that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.” The first of these statements -- “The Lord knoweth them that are his” -- carried a necessary implication, namely “The Lord does not know those who are not his.” Indeed, Jesus made this statement in the sermon on the Mount: “I never knew you; depart from me, ye that work iniquity” (Mt.

  • By David R. Kenney I Highly Respect Alexander
    by David R. Kenney Light AboveFrom I highly respect Alexander Campbell’s sentiment that all spiritual and physical light comes from above – from God and His Word. n 1832, Alexander Campbell’s friend Louis Hobbs, who had constructed some of Bethany College’s buildings, built a Iunique study about 150 feet away from Campbell’s “Mansion.” The study was originally made as a six- sided (hexagonal) brick structure more than 15 feet in height and nearly 17 feet in diameter with a Gothic-style doorway, Gothic window designs (but no actual windows), and four interior walls lined with four sets of book- shelves more than eight feet in height and encased with sliding glass doors that kept Campbell’s main library. Originally, the only windows were the two narrow windows beside the front door, but the primary source of light for the study was a special cupola on the roof with windows to al- low in sunlight. Campbell commented about the design of the study, particu- larly about the lighting for it, by stat- ing “lux descendit e caelo,” which is Portrait of Alexander Campbell Latin for “light descends from above.” painted by James Bogle, 1857. 38 Gospel advocate • March 2013 It is reported that he would state that all light, physical and spiritual, comes from above, so he wanted to harness this “light from above” for his study. Campbell was often referred to as “the sage of Bethany,” a title he certainly earned. He was a serious student of the Scriptures. When he was under his father’s training for ministry, Campbell followed a study regimen that he maintained throughout his life: “Arrangement for studies for winter of 1810.
