The Death of Koresh

The Associated Press gives the news that Cyrus W. Teed, known as “Koresh,” claiming to be the incarnation of Cyrus and Christ and Elijah, and we know not how many more, died recently in Florida. His followers stood around him for three days, we are told, expecting that he would rise from the dead. Some one else may be clever enough to be his reincarnation, and continue to deceive. All this comes from seeking signs and turning away from the simple word of God. We are glad that one deception is broken; we are sorry for the poor deceived ones.
