judge Thee"
Said the Lord, and in harmony Win
this we find that in the Lords proVF
dence these Higher Critics are gradu-
ally more and more telling on them
selves. But the nominal Christian Is
quite obtuse, and many OF the True
Christians, as the Apostle explains are
merely ''babes in Christ" unaple 70
use the strong meat of the Word, ana
capable only of enjoying or using Tue
milk of the Word" and Incapable Oh
using its strong meat. Hence the open
declarations of these wolves IN sheep )
clothing, who masquerade as sheep
are not taken seriously. If the sheep
are startled by the words, they are
soothed again by the thought that thls
IS our kind minister, polished in man
ner and well educated, and he surely
would not lead us astray, he surely
would not deceive us. If he had ceased
TO believe the Bible and become an IN
fdel he surely would have left the pull
pit. Poor innocents!
Blood Atonement For Sin.
Our text refers to a blood-atone-
ment for sin. The Law Covenant re-
quired the death of bullock and
goat, but the repetition of these sac
rifices every year indicated that no
cancellation was effected thereby
merely a typical covering of sin for
year. The Law required an eye TOT
an eye, a tooth for tooth, man 5
life for a mans life, which implies
that perfect man must of necessity
die in order to be the Redeemer OF
Adam and the race which shared MS
condemnation. The bullock of the SIN
Offering, therefore, was merely type
of a better sacrifice. The true sacrl-
fee was provided in the death of the
Man Christ Jesus. He was man and
yet not a sinful man, because, al
though born of a woman, His life was
from above. Had He received His lire
from an earthly father, He would
have been a blemished, imperfect, sin
full man, and as such could not have
paid the ransom-price for another.
For this cause One was chosen to be
the Redeemer who was holy, harm
less, undefled and separate from sin
ners." And all this because Of His
miraculous conception.
AS in the type the blood of the bull
lock was used to make typical atone
ment for a year, so in the antttype
the blood of Jesus is efficacious to
make atonement for the sins of the
whole world In the type an earthly
priest offered the blood, in an earthly
tabernacle; in the antique, He who
became the Sin Offering, begotten Of
the Holy Spirit, at the time of His
conservation, was therefore recognized
as the great Antitypical High Priest.
After His resurrection He assembled
on high, "tO appear in the presence Of
God for us"-for the Church-frst;
and when the Church shall be COM
pleted, He will appear for the world.
He will seal the New Covenant for
Israel, applicable to all the families
of the earth, through Israel. Then, as
the great Mediator of that New Gov
enant Jeremiah XXI, 81, He will
for thousand years, reign as King
of earth, the Antitype of MelchiSedec-
a Priest upon His throne-a Royal
Priest, possessed of the necessary
power to put down sin and to uplift
humanity and perform the function Of
instructing and blessing mankind.
To Regain Paradise Lost. 80.
The Paradise lost when Adam sinned
was a miniature one. 1t is to be re-
stored and to be worldwide in extent
God will make His earthly foOtstool
glorious" He has promised to make
His footstool glorious-"He formed it
not in vain, He formed it to be in
habited. Isaiah TX, ID; Xvi, 1; xiv, Is.
AS the earthly Eden it will be inhab-
tied by its master, man; the restored
earth would be naught without its
master restored. And this is the Di-
vine provision, that as by man came
death, sin, sorrow, pain, trouble, by a
man also shall come the resurrection
of the dead, the uplifting of Adams
race, mentally, morally, physically, to
human perfection, happiness and ever
lasting life. Earth's blessings will be
for all except two classes: ~ Those
who love sin and hate righteousness,
after having been brought to a full
knowledge of both good and evil, will
have no further Divine favor, but will
die the Second Death. (2) The others
who mill not pof human medication opI
earth's blessings will be a spiritual
class, sanity class whom God is now
selecting from among mankind to be
His co-laborers with Christ in the up
lifting and restitution of humanity.
Unquestionably, the Almighty could
have arranged a plan for dealing with
humanity differently-He could have
put a different penalty upon Father
Adam. The present arrangement was
made so as TO display ~ Divine Jus
tice, e. Divine Love, g. Divine Power,
a. Divine Wisdom. Mans fall and
degradation under the death sentence
witnessed to men and to angels the
downward tendency of sin and Divine
Justice in mans condemnation. Di-
vine Love is manifested in the work
Of redemption. Divine Power will be
manifested, during the reign of Mes
siah, in the uplifting of humanity
from sin and death-the resurrection
of the dead. Divine Wisdom will
finally be seen by all when the great
work of reconciliation and regenera-
ton shall have been effected.
The Life Is In the Blood.
We have always known that in
very important sense the life of every
creature is in its blood, as or text
declares. But we are continually md
ing that the Bible contains such a SUI
perhuman wisdom that many Of its
statements grow in Importance as our
knowledge increases. Our text is no
exception to this rule. The latest find
ings of science are to the effect that
life and nature are more particularly
