tist-vin this small town have1
traded blows during a church
service, voted under the eye ol
police, had church records sto-
len from the home of the
church treasurer and have split
into two factions led by rival
groups of deacons.
One group claims it cannot
worship safely at the First Bap-
tist Church
The other group says it's
been locked out of the church it
has contributed to for years
At the center of the con-
troversy is the church's pastor,
the Rev, Ron Howard He says
he's never preached anything
contrary to Southern Baptist
beliefs. His opponents charge
that he agrees with the chari-
smatic movement, an issue
which has split other congrega-
tions across Texas and the na-
tion.
To some persons tn this town:
of 9004bout 40 miles east of|
Dallas, the word "charismatic"
in “leagues,'
“aBcT "falling
out in the aisles."- and- thevj

don't understand something,!

Howard doesn't deny that he
believes in the power of heal-
ing, or that speaking in tongues
is a legitimate way to worship
And that was enough for some
members to demand his resig-
nation
The vote was 122-86 to sup-
port the pastor, but the charges
started flying
"I tried to shake hands with
someone from the other side
and she said
hands off me. I "don't want to
see you in this church agaiif”
said Rick Quick, a young dea
con who sided against the pas-
tor,
Quick's side said few long-
time church members were no-
tified when the vote on Howard
was taken They claimed the
new "eharismatics" Howard
had recently brought into the
church padded the vote.
The minority called them-
selves the "Faithful 86." They
worshipped at an old school
cafeteria until a lawyer advised
them to assert their right to be
in the church.
They came charging back in
one Wednesday night. They
came busting in like a bunch, of
motorcycle people," said Jesse
Jones, a 60-year-old deacon.
Quick said his group peace-
ably marched to the church,

close the church as soon as
they walked in.

Why do they call some of the
spook-'n' dagger goings-on
'intelligence" activities?
Anyone »hc thinks jokes
Get your filthy they don t want the bus they about
helped buy used to take mem-
bers into Dallas to charismatic
church services.
Barbs
plumbers, are funny
hasn't had a faucet replaced
recently
The "86" ran an advert
ment in the Terrell Tribune
recently saying they were back
in the First Baptist Church
The ad also carried a resolution
listing beliefs they oppose
eluding a "second baptism" of
the Holy Spirit, the casting out
of devils, faith healing and
speaking in tongues.
The ad concluded: "We need
to ever be on the alert as it is
possible lor the devil to use the
charismatic movement to fur-
ther confusion and divisions
within Christ's church."
For some of the baseball
crowd,-it's always the "fifth"
inning.
