347. That by the “end of days” is signified in process of time, is evident to all. At first, and while there was simplicity in it, the doctrine here called “Cain” does not appear to have been so unacceptable as it became afterwards, as is evident from the fact that they called their offspring a “man Jehovah.” Thus at first faith was not so far separated from love as at the “end of days” or in process of time; as is wont to be the case with every doctrine of true faith.
