At Lebanon Christian Church six miles south of Mayfield, Kentucky, December 17-20.
Boaz affirmed "Baptism to a believing penitent is one of the conditions of pardon of past or alien sins. Boaz was far too much for Rudolph. He held every one of his proof texts beyond the reach of his opponent. Rudolph showed embarrassment at his inability to answer Boaz's strong arguments. This confusion lasted until his last speech the first day. Then he became aroused and asked 100 questions for Boaz to answer the first thing next morning. Rogers and Boaz had fun that night working on the questions. Boaz, next day, answered them all, filed objections and turned them against Rudolph. Then Rudolph ignored them until the last day when Boaz asked him for his thanks in answering them so efficiently. Rudolph answered, "Gas, you are nothing but gas, Boaz." This was frequently his answer when he had exhausted his stack of arguments. Considering the little truth Rudolph had on his side he did very well.
"It is my honest opinion that the Baptists will never again allow Rudolph to meet W. T. Boaz, but I do not mean to be boastful in this. Even Baptists said, 'we feel sorry for Bro. Rudolph'." Sometimes when Boaz spoke some of the Baptists would get up and leave the house.
Good attitude and good feeling prevailed. The speakers kept cool. The Christian people of the Lebanon neighborhood know how to entertain strangers during a debate. Truth is powerful and will prevail.
Boaz is an able debater; logical, forceful, and careful in his arguments. He takes his time and impresses the thought into the minds of all his hearers. He is a young man, perhaps 30 years old; but he has the elements of a splendid preacher and a great debater.
