Looking about US we find this true.
Everybody who is not dead is dying.
AS the Bible says. we are living I'M
der a reign Of sin and death. Nothing
that man can do can either eradicate
sin or lift US out of our dead and dy-
ing condition. God alone can help us!
He proposes to help us and the mes
sage respecting that help Is, in the
Scriptures, called the Gospel. It's an
nouncement by the angels on the night
of Jesus birth is full, complete, sat
isfactory. viz: Behold we bring you
good tidings of great Joy which shall
be unto all people; for unto YOU is
born this day in the City of David a
Savior (life-giver) which is Christ the
Lord (Luke II, 100.
All, now we have the truth! The
penalty of sin is death. And the good
tidings" is that God has provided for
our recovery from sin and death. The
Savior gave his life for the cancella-
ton of our sin, for the satisfaction OF
Justice, that in due time Adam and all
his condemned and imperfect race
might be released from the condemna-
ton and be lifted out of the sin and
death conditions which now prevail.
That uplifting is Scripturally called
the resurrection of the dead. Hence
