severity will the Lord’s hand fall up<strong>on</strong> the<br />

watchmen who have failed to place before the<br />

My brethren, the Lord calls up<strong>on</strong> you to<br />

Christians should carry with them, wherever<br />

they go, the sweet fragrance of Christ’s<br />

righteousness, showing that they are complying<br />
