FORMATION, then, is to form

\P.. 33-6-9.)
With those Bible facts before
us, we can plainly see; that
CREATION and FORMATION are
not the same. Hence, we say;
that God did on the sixth day;
create man, male and female;
Then after he had rested one
day He formed man from the
dust of the ground. making two
distinct and sepecate characters.
This is the point that we shall
establish by the Word as we
proceed. So please read.
