    Bible Class on Order

    In an address delivered by Elder James White before the conference assembled in Battle Creek, in April, 1861, published in the Review of June 11, of the same year, we find that a more complete organization of our churches was called for. Recommendations were made and adopted by those assembled favoring this, and a committee of nine ministers was selected, who were requested to hold a Bible class and seek light upon this subject, and that the same be published in the Review. Their report was prepared, which set forth the Scriptural testimony on church order and church officers. Elder White also called attention to the propriety of elected delegate representation from the several States in a general conference, and similar representation of churches in their State conferences. In reality this was the first suggestion of the plan of having delegates duly elected for our general associations.COOD 121.4
