60.1
December 9-12 - large audiences heard Boaz affirm "The church with which I stand identified is scriptural in origin, doctrine and practice." At the end of the debate Boaz had convinced all who attended that he was master of the situation. Cayce did not attack the strong arguments of Bro. Boaz but put in his time reading lengthy articles from Alexander Campbell and others concerning the faith of Bro. Boaz and what he should defend. Cayce's negative work showed very plainly that Bro. Boaz did not take the line of argument to prove his proposition that he had prepared to meet. Cayce's negative arguments were as strong as those that most Primitive Baptists present, but they were not effective against Bro. Boaz's position. Boaz also affirmed "The Church of Christ embraces all of the saved." Cayce admitted this to be true. Then Boaz stated that unless Cayce could prove that he (Boaz) is not a saved man, his proposition was sustained; that if he granted that he is saved and that the Church of Christ embraces all of the saved, then he is in the church, and the church that he is in is a scriptural institution. This so confused Cayce that he could make but a poor defense. When Cayce took the lead, Bro. Boaz completely covered him up with negative arguments.
The brethren were very much pleased with Bro. Boaz's defense of the truth. Brethren, if you want a man to meet "Hardshells,"send for Bro. Boaz; he is well prepared for this work.
