noticed 10 the Telegraph of March LIST,
1913, over the signature Of B. w. Dyer, az
mcle, the caption of which was, Second
llVent"; in which he speaks Of the resur-
wion and asks the question: But phat
she Resurrection spoken Of by Jesus 2"
will admit that the scripture which he has
poIed from ST. John, v: %, %, 20, means
nat be has attached thereto. viz a resur-
wiOn from vile, sinful, and impure princi-
Jes, 10 principles incoruptible, pure and
nly. But Is this the resurrection of which
Christ speaks, when he addressed the Sad
hcees concerning the woman who had the
seven husbands He says, "For when
hey shall rise from the dead, they neither
marry, nor are given in marriage; but are
a the angels of God in Heaven" "Neilh-
can they die any more: = and are
children Of God, being children Of the resur-
rclion." See Mat. xxi: 30, Mark yii: 25,
nd Luke Xxx: SO. Now l would ask, are
not hose who are made The partakers Of
Mother Dyer's resurrection from the death
dsin and vile principles in this state of ex-
asnce, subject to die again, or fall back
gain into sin and pollution And, more
ysver, are they not subject to natural death
once in grace, always in grace" and that
hose who have once experienced his kind
iresurection can never die again
Brother Dyer has made sweeping denun-
cation against those who advocate the re-
arecIion Of the bodies Of persons who have
lied, and seen corruption, TO life and immor-
atty; styling them sunk in traditionary
aoance" Wha; did Christ mean when
be said, except a corn o: wheat fall into
be ground and die, it abideth alone"
Was Paul sunk in Evolutionary ignorance"
Then be declared, that Christ "would
hauge our vile body, and fashion il like
nlO his glorious body"7 He also said that
there was one flesh Of men another flesh
dbeasts, &c. and that there were also &C.
stial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but
he glory of the celestial is one, and that Of
he terrestrial is another. One glory Of the
Jun, another of The moon, and another Of the
uars, &C.. So also is the resurrection Of the
dead Ii is sown in corruption it is raised
b interruption tit is sown a natural
MY il is raised spiritual body. There
IA natural body and there is a spiritual
Ndy," &c. See Cor. XIV: IL, 81. Now
Understand language, Christ, and Pau
aGghl the resurrection Of the bodies of all
mankind and in the same order and rela-
hoo, one to another, as we see exist IN this
lie; for are we not bone, flesh and blood
me Of another, connected together by :h'
fongest ties If generation, and thus form
Hs one complete body, Christ being tn
aRAD thereof? For Paul says, the heat
every man is Christ" Thus in the res
ureclion; "Christ has risen from the dea
and become the first fruits Of those tha
SepL" Cor, are dead.) True we shall nc
astain the appelations Of fathers and moth
Us-brolhers and sisters - husbands an
wives: but shall be "children Of God /;
nd God will be all in all"
Brother Dyer objects to the resurrectio
1.-THE bodies Of persons, because it woul
esIroy the identity Of each other, seein
bat hose who have died, and seen CORFU
hoo are "gone to replenisb the wastes
allure and produce other animate forms,
Rgeta5le, man and animals; and that
here were to be a resurrection of the one,
'Ould certainly destroy the identity OF Il
nr; or, If the latter is to retain its idel
Ny, the former cannot exist" Now all th
apOsiulaie, calculated to cover up the vi
W. and must be answered in5the languas
aPaul-". That which thou sowest is q
nckened except it die: and that whi'
lou sowest, thou sowest not the body tn
nall be but God giveth it body as it ha
eased Him, and TO every seed his oV
"dy." There, Paul said nothing about :
asatVying individuals in the resuTeciio

Aown to the four winds.
