the of the dead" But again, "rhe

spirit" | Cor. 10 as.
The word wondered "quickeming,"
is, Zoopieo, the same word is render
ed quicken in the text, and means,
"to give life, 10 preserve life" The
New Version renders tia life-giving

came by Adam; and life, spiritual,
and eternal, came by Jesus Christ.
Our connection with the first
Adam is death; our connection with
the second Adam is life and peace.
The last enemy that shall be de-
stroyed is death. "For he must reign
till he hath put all enemies under his
feet. The last enemy that shall be
destroyed is DEATH" Cor. 10 1926
PauPs description of this grand

things found in all the Book of God.
Hear him, "Behold, l show you a
mystery; We shall not all sleep, but
we shall all be changed. In a mo-
ment, in the twinkling of an eye, at
the last trump, for the trumpet shall
sound, and the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, ana we shall be
changed. For this corruptible must
put on interruption, and this mortal

this corruptible shall have put on in
corruption, and this mortal shall
nut on Immortality, then shall be

o grave where is thy victory ?"l Cor.

How complete the victory over
death! and how grand the drama !!
when the lettering earth shall TEEN
her sleeping millions on shore. When
the rising dead and the waiting shall
meet in Elijah's chariot, spreading
its wings of flame to rests its wheels
of fire on the mount of God. When
the great Conqueror shall leave the
mediatorial throne and come upon
the wings of the clouds to herald the
way of the resurrection. When the
redeemed of earth shall sweep
through the gate that stands ajar,
and join in the song of praise that
rolls from shore to shore of the sweet
by and by
blessed home, blessed home,
There no more to sever.
| Soon wen meet around the throne,
Praising God forever"

5 "a And l saw the dead, small and
great, stand before God; and the
books were opened, and another book
was opened, which is the book oI
