Mankind's New Trial For Life.
It should not be forgotten that Adam
did not lose everlasting life. Although
he had a perfect life and was FREQ
from all elements OF death, neverthe-
less he was placed In Eden on proba-
ton, TO see whether by obedience to
harmony with God, and so be account
ed worthy of everlasting life. Conse-
quently, when Adam and his posterity
are redeemed from death, this saliva
ton does not entitle them 10 life ever
lasting. but merely to fresh trial as
to worthiness of everlasting life.
This new trial will indeed be more
favorable for Adam and his race In
some respects than was Adams origi-
nal trial, because of the large increase
tunity to learn the lesson Of the ex-
ceedlng sinfulness OF sin. He will
soon have an opportunity to learn tho
blessedness OF righteousness and to
know of the grace OF God In Christ
This knowledge will be of great service
to all who will use It during the Mlllen-
NAL Age, when for a thousand years
the whole world will be on trial for
everlasting life before the great White
Judgment Throne.-Rev. 20I1, II.
God wills that all men shall be
saved, not only from the Adamic
death sentence, but also from the lg-
