Excerpt from Cowley's Talks on Doctrine It is evident from the foregoing that some were likely to be deceived with regard to the time of His second coming. Paul, to prevent their being misled by false teachers who were likely predicting the Savior's advent, testified that there should come a falling away first. The language is so pointed that one can readily see that nothing but a departure from the unchangeable plan of salvation could fulfill this prediction. We read in the Scriptures that God hath set some in the Church, first apos tles; secondarily, prophe-ts, and other officers; all of whom were divinely inspired for the work of the ministry, with spir itual gifts following the baptized believers. Only a short time elapsed, however, before these officers, principles, gifts and bless ings, mentioned in the New Testament, were not to be found on the earth: and when we examine the religious institutions of the present time, these things, which God set in the Church, are not found, save with the Latter-day Saints. The present generation then. As those of many centuries past have been, are witnesses to the verification of the words we have quoted.
