Editor Dear sir In the
WORLDS CREssET Feb. 18th.
you say that God formed man
on the 9th. day or in other
words after the Seventh day,
will you please give US the
book ch. and verse where God
ever created or made anything
after the seventh day now you
say that a thousand years, or
so after God created man male
and female, He formed Adam
and Eve. Then you say that
Adam is the root word Of Great
ion, Then why diden't God call
the first man Adam. Do you be-
lleve that il took cod over seven
thousand years to create and
make every thing that was
made. Please give US Bible. We
know that be says our day is as
O Thousand years and q thous.
and years as one day with
the Lord, again you say the
first man has no spirit until
Christ died on the cross, How
did He give him ths spirit then.
only as be gave to all alike,
Then again Adam after naming
all things called bis wif,s's name
Eve: because she was the mother
of all living. Gen. 300 We
unde rstand from reading of the
Bible that Moses wrote the first
five books of the Bible according
as God told him and that Moses
'wa9ent born till after the food
Now you seem 10 teach that one
thousand years or more elapsed
between (Geu. l-26 and Gen ID
and again you teach that creation
and formation is not the same
thing we admit that it is not
with man. for man can't create
anything.
But God linked them together
in Gen. "a and 5-1-2 This is
the book OF the generations of
Adam. In the day that God
created man in the likeness of
God made he him: male aud
female created he them: and
blessed them, and called their
name Adam. in the day when
shey was created. Then again We
read Gen 9-19 Those are the
three sons of Noah: and OF
them was the whole earth over
spread Do we understand all
nationalities to be descendants
Of them excuse our clumsy way
OF putting these questions. L
is more light we are looking for

said that he was not 3 apiritual
man until after Christ died.
We would not darassag th-t
they did not have 4 spirit, unless
thru NJ istake. for even the beasts
has q spirit. And for this reason
it is written al.
Who knoweth the spirit Of
man tnat goeth upward, and the
spirit of the beast that goeth
downward to the earth" (Eccls.
3-2u
But now We shall say that we
have clearly proven above, that
the created man, the six day
man, did not have salvation
until Christ died and rose again,
to give that salvation. AND sal
vali0u is eternal life. For ne
says.
And other shaep have which
are no. OF This fold, them also l
must bring, ana they shall near
my voice; and there snail be one
tod, and one shepherd.
My sheep hear my voice, and
| KNOW Them, and they follow
me-.
And ] gave unto them eternal
life; and tnsy shall never perish,
neither shall any man pluck
them out OF my taud.' ST John
10-1n&27 PSI
For He says again.
And this il the record, that
ood hath gwen to us eternal life
and this life il in his Son.
Us:. John 5-11.)
This lis what the created mar
| lacked, and that which keps
them from beng a spiritual man
and they was a people that was
not a people without this. And
after Christ come and gave them
this salvation, then PeLer could
we'll say ''ys winch in
time past were not a people, now
are the people of Co.."
Now .hey are splrituai. like

Brother We 10 not believe that
there is any discrepancy Ia The
first five Books that you say
that Moses written, altho ha
was born after The food. in ra
regard to the time that passed
between l0en. 1-26 ~ and Gen,
2-7,) we have set forth above,
Also in regard to CREATION
and just how they We're linked
together, when and how.
And now trusting that yor
may clearly understand our
position. Should 1t ba possible

issue that we would continue to
prove that the Gentiles we're not
a complete people, so Please read:
(which in time past were not a
people. but are now the people
Of God: which had not obtained
mercy, but now have obtained
mercy. "(Pet. 2-10)
Now then you have the fact
clearly set before you of the
people who was to be created,
and at this time anew in
Christ Jesus. Which in times
past was not a people, out now
are the people Of God, now what
was it they were destitute OF?
Well, it was SALVATION please
read.
II say then, Have they STUN
oiled that they should fall? God
forbid: bat rather through their
fall salvation is come unto the
Gentiles. for to provoke them to
jealousy. "(Rom. lid
Here you have the evidence OF
what the Gsntlles we're destitute
of, before the coming of Christ,
that is as we said Salvation
This the formed man and bis
descendants had. And it was for
this reason Christ blinded their
eyes as Paul speaks that the
Gentiles should get salvation;
What then? Israel hath not
obtained that which he seeketh
for: but the election hath Obtain.

And David saith, Let their tab

| That the Genti.es should be
| fello wheirs. and of the same
lbody, and partakers of his pro
mise in Christ by the gospel
(Ephe. 3-9-o)
Here Paul'says to make all
men see the fellowship of the
mystery which was kept hid
from the beginning of the world.
| And that is, that the Gentiles
should be fellow heirs and of
the same oody with the descen.
dants Of the formed man. That
is that the Created man should
be an heir with the formed man.
Now BROTHER Young we have
given you what you have asked
for. The CD. and v. And it is
so plain that the wayfaring man
cannot error therein. And with
this your request fulfilled. we
turn to the next punt which is.
Then you say. ADAM is THE
ROOT WORD OF CREATION"
l Yes. Brother Young, We said
that the word Adam was the root
word OF Creation, and for this,
we shall give our reasons for
saying so, Then you ask why
= did not God call the first man
=. Adam?" These two points we
shall answer jointly. The word
ADAM" takes the place of the
word MAN For God said that
: he formed MAN from the dust OF
} the ground. Then you will see
that the word Adam takes the
place Of man. For after God
Y said:
"And the Lord God said, 1t is
. not good that the man Should
be- alone. l will make him an
help meet for him" "(Gen. 2-1o
he further says:
n And out Of the ground the
l Lord God formed every beast o.

air; and brought them unto Ad-
. am to see what be would cal
!, them, and whatsoever Adam call
\ ed every living creature that was

>, And Adau gave names to al
' cattle, and to the fowl OF the air,
and to every beast OF the
? field; but for Adam there wa,
not found an help meet for him.
t (Gen. lie 0-2O)
You cannot help but see tina
f the word Adam, takes the place
' right here. o. the wore

e of creation, and, also Fvrma
Q tion. For the man in the garder
S was formed from the dust O

created on the first day ant
formed on the third day. Th'
dust was created from nothing
l This makes man or Adam tb,

8 one will be able to see, th,
second point is why was not the
o created man called "Adar?' ",
Y must answer that be was, ant

Here in the sence, of the one
man theory, we have generations
created on the sixth day called
Adam. Then dc not deny the two
men theory any longer, For now
we shall give you the very
essence of the word on this point
which will give strenth to all we
have said reading it in our own
Language.
This is the book of the genera.
tion of the man Adam who was
placed in the garden. In the
day God created man male and
Female (aenllles.)

the formed man was called Ad.

to where Christ created a new in
him the created man, lGentils] as
we have thoroughly proven above
and the genera ions given was

this Book, SO Dear Brother yov
must see these close connected

to Gods time, it TOOK him over

whsn We read Gods Holy Wore
