The Church, the Elect, are indeed the
Spiritual Seed Of Abraham. This class,
as the Bride of Christ, must be COM
pleted and must be united to their Re-
deemer by the change of the First Res
direction before they will be qualified
to share with Him the great work of
blessing the Natural Seed of Abraham.

The completion and glorification of
the Church will mark the time for the
establishment of the Messianic King
dom. Then will begin the pouring out
of the Divine blessing and the removal
of the curse. Satan will be bound for
a thousand years. The knowledge of
God will gradually fill the whole earth.
The Natural Seed of Abraham will be
the first to receive the Restitution

likeness of God in the flesh, and to
have returned to them Paradise condi-

Rapidly the knowledge of the glory
of God will fill the whole earth. Cor

out to all not doing their very best to
come into harmony with the Divine
Law Blessed rewards of increasing

III All those who have suffered for
righteousness sake during the reign of
Sin and Death will be more than COM
penSated therefor in the blessings and
joys of the New Dispensation. The
knowledge of the glory of God shall
fill the whole earth. The glorious Di-
vine character will be made manifest,
not only to angels but to men. The
infinitude of Gods Love, Justice, Wis

all; whereas today, under the reign of
Sin and Death, with minds beclOuded
by the errors instilled by the Prince

darkness-covers the earth, and gross
darkness the heather.
What a glorious cOnSummatiOn is be-

Of human possibility in perfection we
see with the eye OF faith. Man was
made in the image and likeness of his
Creator, and the earth was provided
to be his everlasting home. The curse
that has rested upon the earth and it's
king has brought both to angels and
to men valuable lessons. which per-
haps could not have been learned IN

The result will be glorious, as de-

clares that it will be fulfilled through
Jesus, and incidentally it will be full
filed by the Church through Jesus.
The thought is that in acknowledging
Christ and the Church and in bowling
to them, the world will be bowling to
Jehovah; for the LOgOs, Jesus, the
Redeemer, forever will be the Repre-

The Elect Church Already Bows.
The elect Church Of the present time
already bows the knee to Jesus as the
Representative of the Heavenly Fa-
Their, and already enjoys a great bless
ing through this special relationship
into which she has entered and which
is to be completed in her resurrection
change. Jesus, as the great King Of
Glory, and His Bride class, as the
great Queen of Glory, will be distinct
ly separate from the world-sharcrs Of
an altogether different salvation.
These, begotten of the Holy Spirit, are
promised a participation in the Divine
nature, which is far above that of the
angels, the Apostle assures us.
