There is refusal to hear Elder 111, and the stopping of the ears. Having a form of Godliness, a mere form of religion, a round of ceremony and long show of prayer and formality, a pretense at knowledge of the will of God, in which it is claimed that there is obedience to God, all the while there is absolutely no power over sin, no victory, for the decision to remain in transgression when the Light has come to such, yet claiming holiness and the righteousness of Christ Jesus, who cannot know the children of disobedience, for Christ Jesus always obeyed His Father, and would never transgress the 7th Day the Sabbath of the LORD His God, there being no sin in Him, and so from such, Elder 111, the scripture says, turn away. Let there be grief, and pleading with God that there may yet be repentance granted these, for such can only die in/with their sins, but still, turn away, and wipe the dust of death from your feet, and take the message to others, who may yet hear, turn unto others, that they may have opportunity to accept before the door closes upon them forever. Do not let those which continually crucify Christ to themselves afresh and so waste your God-given and precious time and cast not the pearls away to them which only trample upon such wisdom, for the shame of their nakedness will appear in all its hideousness soon enough, and then, there will be such agonizing regret and such a sorrow as we will never have to know. See the example of Jesus Himself, who wept at the eternal loss. Let such go on in professed ignorance, it will be seen for what it is soon enough, for the judgment is soon to come to them and the Ten Commandments of God be seen in the Heavens [Psalms 50:6, 97:6, 119:172; Isaiah 51:6], and they will awaken soon enough, yet too late, by that which is coming.
