Bare with me, I am on a roll tonight. This idea of not removing Landmarks have been used by other groups to keep them in line.

This is a quote from some of the founders of the Church of God in their desire to leave the dead Baptist Churches and contend for something more.

Epley should like this, it was written by David Roebuck

“Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.” Pendleton and Graves taught that Baptists were putting aside a significant landmark when they worshipped with non-Baptists. Landmarkism held to a line of Baptist succession from the time of Christ, the importance of believer’s baptism by a Baptist minister and the exclusivity of Baptist churches."

That mindset is how the pharisees began. The problem is they broke their own rules and moved the landmarks.

If it is a sin to move the landmark to gain more territory, it is a sin to move it in and create less room. Works both ways. The Bible doesn't say it is okay to move the landmarks in but not out. It says don't remove them period.
