The Text-Book of Righteousness

"That there is a great deal of sin at the present time, none will deny; of course, the law of God is much disregarded; for "sin is the transgression of the law." 1 John 3:4
--And as it is God's decree that "the soul that sinneth, it shall die" (Eze. 18:4), we feel that it is a duty we owe to God and to our fellowmen,
for the honor of His government and the salvation of their souls, to raise our voices in warning them to turn from their
sins, and live. 
--But there are many who will not be convinced of their sins; they deny the Bible, the text-book of righteousness, and charter of our eternal inheritance. 
--Such we are obliged to leave to their own ways; for they cannot be saved who willfully reject the counsel of God. We lament their blindness but can do no more." 
Joseph Waggoner
