Blurb:

The sixth chapter discusses the schism in the Mariavite Church that took place in 1935. Depending on the interpretation, it was either the end of the plans for implementing the Kingdom and fulfilling the Apocalypse or another step on the path towards it. In this section takes up what Kowalski's opponents did in connection with the reforms and the concept of the Kingdom. It is also shown that the archbishop and his followers certainly did not give up on their goals and introduced the last element of the Kingdom concerning the nature of the Trinity. An examination of the idea of the Kingdom and the apocalyptic parts attached to it is presented at the end of the chapter.
