Reject Harmful Teachings

1Keep away from noxious herbs, which are not the husbandry of Jesus Christ, because they are not the planting of the Father. Not that I have found division among you, but filtering.

2For as many as are of God and of Jesus Christ, they are with the bishop; and as many as shall repent and enter into the unity of the Church, these also shall be of God, that they may be living after Jesus Christ. Be not deceived, my brethren.

3If any man follows one that makes a schism, he does not inherit the kingdom of God. If any man walks in strange doctrine, he has no fellowship with the passion.
