not watch for the breakers, and this
is the cause Of so many back sliding
or falling from grace. Gal. 5: IA.
Now you remember that the first
man and woman that God created
we're created holy and they BY trans
gression fell just ike Judas did
and Soloman, David, Sampson, Sani
and Peter. Everything We get in
tn, way Of salvation is on conditions.
II we keep it is nron the condition
that we are faithful This, I think,
is sound theology Bnt man can
put a wrong depreciation on the
Word of God aud prove anything he
may want to prove. But the Bible
is not one-sided book. God and
man must work together If man is
saved. "Cau the blind lead the
bind2 Shall they not fall ID the
ditch together? Luke 6: 80 Matt
Is: IA.
Now, Bro. John, | think | have
as much right to tell the truth
through the paper as you have to
preach such doctrine as you and
Others do from the pulpit. You
ought, Bro. Johnny, to have put the
word truth instead of the word strife.
When you preachers stop preaching
this erroneous doctrine | will stop
correcting you. The truth, or a
belief of it, is what saves people.
"Thy word is truth"
Bro. John wants TO know where
where the Bible leaves Solomon.
l. Kings IL: 43 But read verse
40: Solomon sought therefore 10
kill Jerobeam." Malice aforethought.
Not very christian-like frame of
mind to be left in!
The Scripture YOU refer to, Bro.
John, is all right. But you leave
mans part out altogether, which
makes man mere machine, or tool.
Can't you see this, Bro. Johnny?
You may be like some other people,
pack your sins on Jesus. The devil
didn't do that
My, myl You say you G. Ps
are weighed and found wanting.
Suppose you die with short weight.
We are talking about salvation now.
Wherefore let him that thipketh
he standeth take heed lest he fall"
| Cor 10: IL.
Bro. John, you all run for proof
and comfort to Rom. 8: $3.50.
There are two points you all over
look. The first is IN the Seth verse.
ave are killed are killed all day
long" That means dead to sin.
The point is in the 39th verse: "Nor
heights nor depths nor any other
creature shall be able to separate us
from the love of God IN Christ Jesus
our Lord" Now, Bro. John, he
never said that this love was in Us,
but in Christ Jesus our Lord. But
his fove does not save us unless We
meet the cOnditions--continued faith
and obedience. If it did all men
would be saved. and that is Univer-
salism. The Scriptures you refer to,
Bro. John, are all right, but only
those who meet the requirements
can take shelter under them. We
ought not to presume on Gods love
Or mercies. According to ones
'aith so shall it be; for instance, he
aid, "Thou wilt keep him in per-
ect peace whose mind is staid on
Thee" "For ye are dead and your
life is hid with Christ in God. +" Col.
