The above are some land marks we stand for; and there we expect to stand until God calls us home. The devil tries to obliterate these land marks in every way imaginable in putting up counterfeit marks and in throwing mud on the true. But thank God, the true servants of God can detect the counterfeit and expose them, wash the mud off and make the marks shine so that the true child of God will see them and rejoice in them.
