that which is dangerous, heretical, hetero fs

good fight" and not be crying Peace!
Peace! when there is no Peace"
We fight not because we love war, but |
because we hate it and love peace. We
! ii ght because we honor our King aud are
assured that there can be no Peace only
in his triumph. When Apostle says
sectarianism (hairesis} is a work of the
flesh and ''dananable,o no man with the
I,Ssword of the Spirit in his hand can hes
itate as to his duty
/ The Church Of Christ is simply the
Church of Christ-the one body whose |
Head is Christ-and if there is any other
ecclesiastical organization, superior to it,
let the world know where it is, and how
its blessings may be enjoyed.
Is the Methodist Church the Church of
Christ? Is the Moravian Church the
Church Of Christ Is the Baptist Church
the Chu urch Of Christ? Is the Presbyteri-
an Church the Church OF Christ? Is the
lutheran Church the Church Of Christ?

Church of Christ, and was neither Metho-
dist, Moraviap, Lutheran, Presby terian,
:, or anything but christian !; why we ask
, may it not be SO now
Is Methodist christian better than a
5 christian ? Ii so, then there must be some
) thing in Methodisrn better than Christian

: We deny that the Church of Christ is
: tioms and parties"
r The creed of the Church of Christ is the

: Church of Christ is the Sonsbp of Christ
l. The discipline OF the Church of Christ is
S the Law Of Christ. The name Of the
i Church Of Christ is the Church OF Christ.
d The clergy cannot stop our mouth by
e crying out "wrangler," heresv," "disturb>
# er OF the peace" &c. Jesus Christ and
IS his Apostles were the greatest "wrangfers'
