I'm not seeing anything notable enough about this pastor for the article to pass either WP:GNG or WP:BIO. Since all the references in the article are primary or extremely local (but still primary) and nothing comes up about him a search except for passing brief mentions in a few books about other people. He did write an anti-"spiritualism" (according to him spiritualism is demonic delusion. Who would have guessed?), but there's zero evidence that it had any impact on anti-spiritualists. Whoever they are, or where during the time he wrote it. So, he's not even notable as an author. Adamant1 (talk) 13:22, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Note to closer for soft deletion:? This nomination has had limited participation and falls within the standards set for lack of quorum. There are no previous AfD discussions, undeletions, or current redirects and no previous PRODs have been located. This nomination may be eligible for soft deletion at the end of its 7-day listing. --Cewbot (talk) 22:30, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
