"PERVERTING PROPHECY" AND MISAPPLYING HOLY SCRIPTURES. SHORTLY after the appearance of my ■ "exhortation." to Maranatha, on 18th March, I met one of Wellington's citizens who is entitled to add to his name M.A. He shook mo heartily by the hand, saying: "You have slain 'Maranatha' with one axe." I asked, "What will he do now?" "He will wriggle in the mud," he said. Wo shall see if that has not been so, by reading his production of 25th March. It was not necessary that "Maranatha" should know my name, or oven my address, for a day or two before my "message" was printed, I told "Mara- | natha," whom. I saw in the Bank of New Zealand, that I should have something to say. If he thinks that my name and address should be given; why dees he withhold both of his? and' has done so for I years. I am called "an old prophet." That is ONE TRUTH to his credit, for I am within two years of FOURSCORE, and that I cannot help. LONG LIFE ia on© of tho Promises for obeying tho Ten Commandments of God. Ex. 20:12.. Why does he use the term "Old Prophet" twice over? Does he not know that the Biblo teaches respect to be shown to i'tins aged? Again, why should ho compare me to the Old Prophet of Kings 13:18, who lied to the young Prophets and caused him to .be slain ? It is a false ac-, cusation to class me with that lying Old Prophet, and "Maranatha" should know that "False Accusers" aro to appear in THE LAST DAYS. 2 Tim. 3:1-3. Ho should also use that as one of the signs oT Christ's coming. But not FULFIL the prophecy.' Jtsus said: "I h^ve given unto them tho WORDS whicli Thou gayest me." Of those AVORDS Peter said: "Thou hast the WORDS OF ETERNAL LIFE." John 6:67. Those TEN WORDS are the TRUTH, and are very PURE. Margin. Tried, or refined. See Ps. 119: 30, 43, 140. But the Secretary of the Pre-Millonnial A.A. states that I have offered "loavoned Bread" or Bread impure. Here we have another UNTRUE STATEMENT. The Bread I offered him is tho Incorruptible Word of God, which liveth and abideth for over. The WORD which by the Gospel is preached unto ; you (or should be). I Peter 1:22-25. Jesus Christ is THAT WORD OF COD MADE FLESH; and' unless we become- , WORDS OF GOD like Jesus, wo shall ' not bo invited unto the Marriage Supper : OK THE LAMB. Rev. 19:9. R,V. People who have no USjS for the TEN COMMANDMENTS aro UNFIT "to proclaim" tho Coming Lawgiver, and will be of no USE to Judge the World duriug tho 1000 years. I. Cor. 6:2. Rev. 20:4. With Ps. 149. Why should he say, I have invited him to eat leavened Bread of Sunday Resurrection and MiUennarianism, when I have . proved to him that both are untrue- and false? W« aro glad that "M" ha 3 explained about the "name." For being connected with the, "Close" Brethren he must consent to exclude many who balieve in tho Socond Coming of Christ. I am one , of the number. By this move we have a good , spiritual illusirati'-iii of the word "Sinn Fein," which rnc-ans "Ourselves ALONE." I am also included amongst the "Foolish Teachers who have not yet ioarn&d ftut the Law was our Schoolmaster to bring- us to Christ." By that ho means • tho Law of the Ten Words of Ex. 20: 1-17. If we take it that way, what a very faithful and good servant the Schoolmaster has. been to bring us to t Christ. Really too good a servant to .discharge liiru, for thero a_re so many who have not yet come to Christ. That is an application' of tho Law which a Bible student should not MAKE. The Law of Moses was the Schoolmaster, who by the Levitieal Law of Types, Feasts, Figures, Shadows, etc. During the Old Dispensation . they were taught, and brought to Christ. NOW when a person gets the knowledge of sin by th© Law of God, and thim flies to Christ for pardon, he has not done with that Holy Law, for it must be in his mind and heart if he is to receive the Blessing, and right to enter into the CITY. Rev. 22:14. 14:12 Paul Sets us * good example to establish tho Law. Rom. 3:31. Ho wrote, to Tim. 1-6:14, "That THOU -KEEP tho Commandment (HOW) without spot, unrobukablo (how long?), until the appearing of our LORD." Who docs Paul cull fools? Those who -will' not_ consent to wholesome words. Tho doctrine which is according to Godliness. Verse 1-4. Did Paul condemn such teachers who taught the Law like him ? By nq means. But ho condemned, those men who were teaching the Law ,oi Moses. "Except ye be circumcised yo cannot bo saved." Acts 15:1. "Circumcision is NOTHING.- ■ But . the keeping of tho Oominandments of God is the opposite of NOTHING. Therefore something. How many are wresting and misapplying tho^ writings of Paul to their own destruction ? 2 Peter 3:16.----"I speak to wise men; judge ye what I say." 1 Cor. 10:15. MISCELLANEOUS. COAT FROCKS.
