"The Path of the Just is as the Shining Light,
Which Shineth More and More
Unto the Perfect Day."

SERIES I

The Plan of the Ages

A Vindication of the Divine Character and Government:
Showing, by a Recognition and Harmonizing
of all the Scriptures, that the Permission of
Evil, Past and Present, is Educational and Preparatory
to the Ushering of Mankind Into
THE GOLDEN AGE OF PROPHECY
In Which All the Families of the Earth Will
Be Blessed with a Full Knowledge of God and a
Full Opportunity for Attaining Everlasting Life
Through the Redeemer, Who Then Will Be the
Great Restorer and Life-Giver. Acts 3:19-21
