The immortality Of Mormonism.

various religions which claim affinity to

doctrine chat God could be without parts
and passions, or could be incomprehensi-
Bile. The doctrinal cerruptions of the
Mormon church are all sustained by, IL
not dependent upon, 4 liberalism in inter-
preting the prophecies and the types of
the Bible. From this liberalism springs,
at least by it are supported, the doctrines
of a priestly hierarchy, an earthly Sec
ond Advent and plural marriages. On
the whole then, gathering up the results
Of this brief visit, the impressions prod
