 notwithstanding the anti-Christ has tried with all his wisdom and powers in order to destroy the faith of the true christian and to stop up his path, but the great path and -way of christians leads right from hell to heaven. Isa. 16; John 14: 6. Now here is the wisdom of the anti-Christ. St. Math. 7: 15. "Because of false prophets which came to you in sheep's clothing, but in word they are ravening wolves: and again hear St. Paul on this subject. 2nd Thess. 2: 1, 8, 12; 2d Pet. 2.
