Excerpt from Discussion Between Rev. John L. Shinn, of the Universalist Church and Elder Mark H. Forscutt of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints: Rock Creek, Ills;, August 10th-13th, 1875 The discussion reported in the following pages arose from the Rev. J. L. Shinn preaching against the doctrines in controversy as held by the Latter Day Saints and by eminent christians of many other churches, and by his throwing out a challenge to the christian world generally, and to Elder Forscutt in particular, to discuss these points with him. Brethren Walter Head and Wm. Lambert being present, accepted the challenge in behalf of Elder Forscutt. These brethren wrote to Elder Forscutt to ascertain whether he would meet Mr. Shinn, and received the following reply: Lewistown, Fulton County, Illinois, April 16th, 1875. Bro. A. W. Head, Sonora, Illinois: I am engaged for the present at this place, Bryant, St. David´s, Canton, and Peoria - when through here, I can come to Sonora, if necessary, and if Mr. Shinn wishes to debate with me the doctrine of the Resurrection of the Body, or any other doctrine we hold, he can readily be accommodated. You can hand him an Epitome of our Faith,, and tell him I am ready to affirm any part or all of it, or to deny if any chooses to affirm an opposing faith. King James´ Translation of the Bible to be the standard reference on doctrinal matters, standard authors on Antiquities of America, if the Book of Mormon be assailed; time to be equally divided, each to choose one Moderator, and the two Moderators and audience to choose a Chairman, who shall not belong to the Church of either disputant. Your brother in Christ, Mark H. Forscutt. On receiving the foregoing letter, the brethren waited on Mr. Shinn, who wrote the two propositions hereinafter found, and discussed between him and Elder Forscutt. It is to be regretted that Mr. Shinn did not accede to the request of Elder Forscutt to extend the debate still further, as there would have been, without doubt, very much of interest to the Bible student, which the limited time given prevented the introduction of. It is, however, now sent forth, with a prayer that the truths, thoughts and views presented may be reviewed carefully by the reader in the light of the revelations of God´s Holy Word, and that in its perusal each reader may obtain light and comfort from the promises of Him who is able to perform all that He hath promised. Rules of Discussion Between M. H. Forscutt. And J. L. Shinn. 1st. - The discussion shall be held at Rock Creek Township, Hancock County, Illinois, commencing Tuesday, August 10th, 1816, and shall continue four days.
