_Romans 14:12._ Account of “*himself*”, not his neighbor. FOR we must *all appear before the judgment seat of Christ*; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. _II Corinthians 5:10._ You had better *save your own soul*, and try to help others than criticise them. If you know how, they ought to like, be a Christian and show them how the counterfeit christian proves the genuine, just and the counterfeit dollar proves the genuine. You may as well argue “Don’t deposit money in a bank, there are men in the banking business that have embezzled. Don’t join the lodge or trades unions." There are hypocrites in every lodge and union in America. There are hypocrites everywhere. *Remember*—When the Church goes through the Pearly Gates, those hyporites will be left on the *outside of the gate*, on *your* side, unless you repent, and you will have to spend *all eternity with them*. Would it not be better to repent, and live with them a few years in the Church, than to spend *all eternity* with them elsewhere? You must spend some time with those hypocrites, somewhere. Where shall it be? SO then every one of us shall give *account of himself to God*. _Romans 14:12._ FOR it is written, as I live, saith the Lord, *every knee shall bow to me*, and *every tongue shall confess to God.* _Romans 14:11._ AND whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into *the lake of fire*. _Revelation 20:15._ Take Christ as Your Saviour, a perfect example, and do not lose your soul through looking at inconsistent christians. HE that *believeth* and is *baptized shall be saved; but* he that *believeth not shall be damned*. _Mark 16:16._ *FOR by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves*; it is the *gift of God*; not of works, lest any man should boast. _Ephesians 2:8, 9._ Illustration: John 21:19-22. Excuses. *My companions, Keep me from Christ.* Great blessing awaits those who will *turn from bad associates*, but the curse of God is upon those who refuse to do so—Read for yourself and see— BLESSED is the man that *walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly*, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth *in* the seat of the scornful. _Psalms 1:1._ HE that walketh with wise men shall be wise: *but a companion of fools shall be destroyed*. _Proverbs 13:20._
