 hold in mind. This we have in these epistles, as we'll as in other scriptures.
 Man Is Deficient
 But when We come to study man in his relations to his universe we see that he Is deficient for the normal and true ends which his station and functioning in the universe demands This both anthropology and history abundantly prove; and any conclusion may hope to get from their study will serve only to explain his fall from the estate which nature would require him to have for fulfilling his office in the universe as man. Hence we have be- fore us in our study two men, man as he has been and is in the light of his genetic history, and man as he ought to have been and must be to fulfill his task to the universe. The old man is thus set over against the new man in all the search of the world to know man. The ancient Egyptians fin their lore saw it and no writings is more pronounced in drawing this dis tinction of what man Is and what he ought to be than the admonitions of Ipuwir, 200O B. c. The ancient Israeli ite sages of creation set forth the ideal man in Eden; but had to admit that he was no longer resident upon the earth in their com panion saga of the fall. Under the care and culture of ideal man the earth was a veritable Eden; but under the strug gle of fallen man it is cursed for his sake into irresponsiveness to his tillage entailing in resentment labor and toll upon him. And as though this was not enough, the earth is made to open its mouth to drink from Nthe hands of man his brothers blood; and profaned there
 
 common creator in accusing cry, in the further saga of Cain and Abel.
 Thus we have portrayed in most rex- quisite sagas the failure of man to be what his position in the universe would have him be. and the entailment there by of the fallen estate on all creation so that it cannot express its creators purpose and grace. The earth therefore has been crying out for man fit to inhabit it as its lord and caretaker. This man is what is everywhere termed the messianic man; and of him prophet, poet and sage sang. What is man, that thou shouldest be mindful of him; And the son of man, that thou shouldest visit him; Thou madest him but little low CT than God; Thou crownest him with glory and honor; Thou makest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; Thou didst put all things under his feet Thus the world has cried out for the new man. who should be to it what the old man was not. a real son of man embodying in himself the nor mally human.
 Jesus of Nazareth Came
 Tn response to this cry came Jesus of Nazareth, introducing Himself as the son of man. for which the world was crying. He was to be the Messiah, the new man. and through His work He would bring in the messianic men wherever they would trust Him to that blessed end, and so the world was to be satisfied. Hence the gospel message of the text is to be heralded over the entire world; and 1t is my great pleasure to sound It into your ears today. Put off the old man with his doings and put on the new for now that Messiah has come, you can take your own choice which you will be-
 That you may feel more fully the ap- peal of this gospel, let us consider to- gether who this new man is. He is de- scribed in the context through his specific differences; and set forth in what he has of contrasts with the old man we know so we'll He is the mortal enemy of voice and it's organs of preparation in the world; and so if you would put him on you must put to death your members which are upon the earth-fornication, un- cleanness, passion, evil desires and covetousness which is idolatry' Mark you, it is not merely killing vice in your own self, he here enjoins; but killing off the members which are upon the earth for it's propagation. as soldier of society in it's war for its purification. If. there fore, you would put on the new man, you must declare war to the death against vice, personal and social. Let him also strip himself of all hatred and hostility to- wards his fellows, putting away anger, wrath, malice. railing and shameful speaking out of his mouth; for the new man must be man of peace living for peace in the universe. And let him be man true to the truth in his dealings with his fellows, and Tie not one to an- other;' for the new man must be trust worthy, living in good faith towards his creator and his fellow members of society.
 Society Without Prejudice N
 'sSocietv ,,nder the regime of the new man will know no prejudices, whether racial as Greek and Jew or religious as circumcsed and uncircumcised.' or cul- turnal as barbarian, Sythian,' or eco- homie as 'bondman, 'freeman;' but Christ is all and in all.' the messianic being everything. It will so fill the world with disciples of the messianic, that all men will be christs: and the Christ which has come in Jesus Messiah. will be resident in all. Did ever before in human history any religion make such promises to mankind as this? The new messianic man in his coming will truly bring in a new heaven and a new earth. wherein dwelleth righteousness
 But this gospel I preach means more than bringing to men new human ideal; for Jesus, the firstborn of all creation. the firstborn from the dead. the head over his body the church is more than an ideal; for in Him dwelleth all the full ness of the Godhead bodily. We concept ualize his earthly ministry in our minds. and surround his face with halo of glory; and the charm of his countenancc appeals to us to be like that ideal. But he is not only the ideal man. but the perfect man embodied in living reality. making others like him as they behold his face as in a mirror and are changed into the same image from glory to glory. zl.wx xt1- Ix..
