Someone may inquire, Why are the
doctrines Of Christ so misunderstood
that six hundred different denomina-
tions have resulted from the differences
Of theory respecting them? The ex-
panation is that, shortly after the
death of the Apostles, the Adversary
sowed the seeds of false doctrines, us
ing human lips and pens in his service,
through pride and ambition The dark
ness became so great that we speak Of
the period as the Dark Ages"
The various denominations OF Chris
tendon are evidences OF honesty, per.
severance and love Of the Truth, be,
cause our fOrefathers who made these
creeds were each trying to get back
into the true Light They all made the
mistake, however, of holding too much
to the creeds and theories of the past
God, who foretold through the Proph
cts this darkness and who has blessed
and guided His children throughout it,
has promised that with the End Of this
Age will come great enlightenment
upon His people, scattering the dark
ness The wise shall understand, but
none of the wicked shall understand" "

CHAPTER TX.

O'Rourke had no intention of leav-

to mitigate the terrors of the journey.
Five days had elapsed since that
morning in the oasis. In the interval
he had again dared the danger of the
desert, returning to Biskra alone by a
route more direct than that which had

gratuity larger than his ebbing means
warranted, he had proceeded to FL

so now found himself on the direct

the future and the Pool of Flame:
