We are thankful for anything that sends us back to the Word to re-examine the

foundations upon which we build. We are thankful to state that our re-examination in the

present case has but the more confirmed that the dispensation, fellowship, sphere, and

constitution of the Ephesian company is unique, is in no way related to the heavenly

calling of Hebrews, and that Hebrews itself is more concerned with urging the believer to

"go on unto perfection" than with the calling and standing of the believer in grace.

Faith must stand the test; doctrines must be proof against attack; we are enjoined to

"prove all things", and to "hold fast that which is good". This we believe we have done,

and in its results we rejoice.
