On one side there will be discord and dismay; on the other side there will be Selence ond prace. The breaking up of material beliefs
leis may seem to be amine and pestilence, want and woe, sin, sickness, and death, which as sume new phases until their nothing- avears. These disturbances will continue until the end of error. when all discord will be swallowed up in spiritual Truth." (Page 06, 12-20)
