THE ANCIENT LANDMARKS
By: J. D. Cameron
Text: Prov. 22:28 --
Remove not the ancient landmarks, which thy fathers have set."
INTRODUCTION:
The "landmarks" spoken of in the text imply more than objects which marked the boundaries of each man's estate. Spiritually, these "landmarks" indicate the boundary between God's way and man's way. The spiritual landmarks of the Old Testament were the laws of Moses. The landmarks of the New Testament Church are found in the
Gospel of Christ.
