Desire of Ages – 309 Desire of Ages – 309 The greatest deception of the human mind in Christ’s day was that a mere ascent to the truth constitutes righteousness. In all human experience a theoretical knowledge of the truth has been proved to be insufficient for the saving of the soul. It does not bring forth the fruits of righteousness.
