Entangled in the meshes of this heresy are they who deny the doctrine of inherited guilt;
who entertain false views of the sacraments, holding that in Baptism the poison of sin is at

flesh absorbs a few particles of the glorified body; and lastly, who advocate the ridiculous
efforts to banish demoniac influences from rooms and vacant lots. All this is foolish, unscrip-
tural, and yet defended by believing men in our own land. O Church of Christ, whither art
thou straying?
