A Short History of the Life of J. G. Machen (6205 words) |
 | Machen was one of the chief founder of the new denomination. |
| However, Machen responded that since the church was a voluntary organization, and one was not forced to join it, the church had the right to insist on its own beliefs, that is, the beliefs that one was required to hold in order to be a member of it. |
| Machen was not trying to deny others their rights to believe and practice what they want, but simply asked them to not be hypocrites in the church and hence violate the rights of those in the church to have it as they believe it should be. |
