By A.D. 594 the Christian church has become divided into many competingsects. At a Syrian market, two Christian women are sold as slaves to a youngmerchant named Mohammed who is searching for truth as well as riches.One of the slaves, Lollia, is eventually sold to the Lady Paulina and takenback to Rome, once the center of the world, but now fallen into disrepair andmenaced constantly by the hostile Lombards just outside the walls. Inside thecity, the starving people are completely dependent on Bishop Gregory forfood. Paulina struggles with the new doctrine of purgatory taught by Gregoryand her own sense of unworthiness before God.The other slave, Amina, travels with Mohammed's caravan back to Mecca.There she attempts to share Christ with those around her, including a blindgirl named Aseeyah, who embraces the gospel and seeks to influence her tribein the true worship of God. As the years pass, Mohammed declares himself tobe the prophet of God and begins to convert people by persuasion or force.In Rome and Arabia, Lollia, Paulina, Amina and countless others fall intothe bondage of man-made religions and must learn at last to find true freedomin the Lord Jesus Christ alone.
