"Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. Now I praise you brethren, that you remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you," 1 Cor. 11:1, 2. I presume there is not a preacher today in the church of Christ, but can read. Therefore, no one is excusable for not keeping and preaching just what Paul taught the Church to preach, and practice. "If any man think himself to be a prophet (teacher), or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord,"1 Cor. 14:37. Paul also wrote 1 Cor. 16:1, 2, but there are few who believe it from the way they act. He wrote 1 Cor. 11:23-29, but the BIG PREACHERS say something else will do as well and often better.

Paul instructed Titus to "ordain elders in every city," but the "Big ones" say, "that is all bosh, the Mormons do that." "But though we or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that we have preached unto you, let him be accursed." Gal. 1:8, 9. And he will be; there can be no escape. These substitutions are sins against the Holy Spirit.

"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap, "Gal. 6:7. Men are sowing the wind, when they substitute something for God’s Plan. Woe unto you ye worldly wise, who trample the teaching of the Holy Spirit under your unhallowed feet. Know ye not that God has only one way to do everything?

"Brethren, be ye followers of me, and mark them which walk so as you have us as an exampIe," Phil. 3:17. And please read on two verses and get the picture of those who have gone "in the way of Cain."

"And Whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by Him," Col. 3:17. Jesus gave thanks to God for the "Cup"; but the Cainites can’t do that. They had to change their prayer. It would sound a little strange to hear them give thanks for "their cups".

"Therefore brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle," 2 Thes. 2:15. I can only add my prayer and exhortation to Paul’s.

"All scripture given by inspiration of God is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished to all good works, "2 Tim. 3:16, 17. If these innovations that are being introduced are "good works," why do the scriptures not furnish them? I challenge G. C. Brewer, N. B. Hardeman, T. Q. Martin, or any other advocate of these damnable errors, to step out and answer.

Here is why they are so quiet. "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but having itching ears, they will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts. And shall turn away their ears from the truth and shall be turned unto fables," 2 Tim. 4:3, 4. What more proof do you want, when you look at most of the churches of today, that that time is here in its fullness? The denominations used to say, when you told them baptism is immersion, "that is Campbellite doctrine." Now these people have jumped into the denom’s shoes, and Mormon doctrine, hobby rider, fogy, moss back, "you can’t preach in My church."

Now brethren, I don’t want to go to hell when I die, and I don’t want any of you to go there, but just as sure as God condemned Cain, Nadab and Abihu, Aaron, Moses, David, and others for not following the exact word that He gave them speedy and certain punishment, just that certain will Jesus Christ condemn you for not following His plain teachings. There is no escape.For the hope of eternal happiness I pray you,REPENT.
