DREAMS.

dignity of intellectual effort But
occasionally there comes before the
people an instance of a most
startling dream, whose portentous
prophesy is verified to the letter,
Then all become demure and
thoughtful, and exclaim, wonder
fully strange. A mother in the
state of Missouri, when near the
transition called death, was asked by
a lady friend, whom she would
have, in case of her death, take her
two little girls. The mother re-
piled; 81 want sister Laura to have
Mamie" here she paused, land
whom do you desire to have Mary
The mother answered.; MARY will
90 with me- At this moment
Mary was apparently well, and was
out at play. The lady friend was
somewhat abashed, and said to the
mother; what do you mean," the
mother replied: 81 saw Mary and
myself last night, both of us in the
same coffin, and | realized that we
would be Inferred together, day
after tomorrow; and in accord
ance with this dream the mothers
and Mary's bodies were buried to-
gether. This dream is well authen-
ticated, as are thousands OF others,
and like all other phenomena,
dreams are governed by law, and to
know the law and be able to abide
it is to scripturally become a Son of
the living God, and a brother of the
Christ. The prophets and seers in
all the worlds great religions have
more or less had access to this
great law. 1t was in this Sense
Jesus came to fulfill the law and the
prophets. This great light, the
glimpse of which had delighted and
Illuminated the souls of men all
along the misty past, was opened
full and clear in the lite of the bless
ed Jesus. Thus he exclaimed: Seek
We first the Kingdom of God and His
righteousness and all these things
Shall be added unto you Mathew,
6-33. The Kingdom of God is with
in man." Luke, 1921. mot every
one that saith unto Me Lord, Lord,
Shall enter into the Kingdom of
Heaven, but he that doeth the Will
of my Father which is in Heaven.
By their fruit We shall know them. "
What is the righteousness OF Godf
Christ said at is doing the Will OF
of God; then what is the will OF
God. In the notable Sermon on the
Mount Jesus said; Love your
enemies, bless them that curse you,
do good to them that hate you, and
pray for them that dispitefully use
you, and persecute you, that We may
be the children of your Father which
is in Heaven. For if We love them
that love YOU, what reward have
We. do not even the Publicans the
same. BE We therefore perfect, even
as your Father which is in Heaven
is perfect.
"For whosoever shall do the will
of God the same is my brother and
my sister and mother" John, 4-35.

when he had called unto Him, His
twelve disciples He gave them pow

them out, and to heal all manner of
sickness and all manner of disease

another the gift of healing, etc. list.

speak of myself This is the demon
strabh doctrine ofChrist "But as
many as received Him to them gave
He power to become the Sons of
God" John, 1; II.
If Sons then Gods, in the same
sense that Christ was God and in
no other sense. "Verily, verify,
say unto you, he that believeth on
me, the works that do shall he do
also and greater than these shall he
do because go unto the Father
He that followeth me shall not walk |
in darkness, but shall have the light |
of life. In Him was lie and the life
was the light of men, and the light |
shineth in darkness and the dark
ness comprchended it not" John, 1;

temple of God, and that the spirit
of God dwelleth in you" ! Cor, 3;

In contradistinction to the doc.

universal in being, and necessarily
and all embracing in
that God was the
