And came out OF the graves after
his resurrection. and went into the
holy city, and appeared unto many"
Matt. N:52, so. The resurrection of
the just Is to be made general at
the time of the Lords approaching
advent in glory; but a fixed grada-
tion Is established as Paul averred:
But now Is Christ risen from the
dead, and become the first fruits Of
them that sleIt For since bv man
came death, by man came also the
resurrection of the dead. For az in
Adam all die, even so In Christ shall
all be made alive. But every man
in his own order: Christ the first
fruits: afterward they that are
Christ's at his coming" q Cor,
15:20-2O.
The Millennium Is to be inaugurated
by a glorious redemption Of the
righteous from the power of death;
and of them 1t is written: BLESSED
and holy Is he that hath part in the
first resurrection: on such the second
death hath no power, but they shall
be priests of God and of Christ, and
shall reign with him a thousand
years" (Rev. 2O:6) OF the unworthy
We read in thrilling contrast: But
the rest Of the dead lived not again
until the thousand years were fin
ished." Verse h)
or the imminence Of His coming
and in further specification OF the
distinction between the resurrection
Of the just and that of the unjust the
Lord has said through revelation in
the current age: "Hearken We. for,
behold, the great day of the Lord In
nigh at hand. For the day cometh
that the Lord shall utter his voice
out OF heaven; the heavens shall
shake and the earth shall tremble
and the trump of God shall sound
ooth long and loud, and shall say to
tne sleeping nations. Ye saints arise
ana i've; ye sinners stay and sleep
until l shall call again." Doctrine
and Covenants, E3:l7. I9.
Inc Book of Mormon is explicit in
description of the literal and uni
Nersal resurrection: Now, there IA
a oeath which Is called a TEMPORAL
aeath; and the. death of Christ shall
loose the bands of this temporal
oeath. that all shall be raised from
tnis temporal death. The spirit and
the body shall be. reunited again In

We shall be brought to stand before

The Heralds Special Sermon

ship has emphasized the "Quiet
Hour when each Christian should
give at least half an hour to the
study of the. Bible and prayer, pre-
ferabiy the early morning hour.
Christ emphasized the need Of the
"Quiet Hour when He said. Enter
into thine inner chamber and shut
thy door and pray to thy Father
which seeth In secret" God may not
reveal himself to you In q startling
vision, but he who IL familiar with
the inner chamber and the shut. door
will be in no doubt about Cod Take
time each day to get acquainted and
learn to speak with Him. Take the
best time of day there is. BE still
and know"
Our Lord suggests another gate
way to- this vital knowledge. HE
that doeth the will shall know of the
doctrine" Experience shall verify
theory. This seems like reversing the
order. we.s SAY knowledge should pre-
cede action. You must know first
before you can do. Not always; do
ing is often the gateway to knowing.
We find Mr.. Ldison is his laboratory
busy experimenting. He has q GER
produce the human voice. He does
not know how 1t is to be done, but
he makes experiments, first in this
way, then In that, then at last the
discovery is made and We have the
talking machine.
This Is also true Of surgical science
The possibility Of certain operations
the surgeon discovers only by try
ing them. They do in order that they
may know. This Is also one of the
methods in the spiritual world. He
that doeth the will shall know"
There is in reality no direct and
vital way OF knowing God, except by
doing His will. OF course. you may
know what others say about Him
without doing His will. There are
splendid books written on the char
acter and attributes OF God and you
will be benefited by reading, them.
However, one may know the con-
tents Of such books and yet not have
the knowledge which 10 eternal life.
You must know Him for yourself.
Each generation as George Mac
Donald has said, must do its own
seeking and finding. The fathers
having found is only the warrant
for the children's search"
There Is only one way of being sure
that God anwers prayer. Try It.
Pray, and you shall know. One may
know all that s. d. Gordon says in
his Quiet Talks on Prayer" or all
that Fosdick says in "The Meaning
Of Prayer" but unless one prays,

WHY SHOULD 1T BE THOUGHT
A THING INCREDIBLE WITH YOU.
THAT GOD SHOULD RAISE THE
DEAD?' (Acts $3.50.
So asked Paul Of King Agrippa
when arraigned before him a prison.
er in bonds approximately thirty
years after our Lords resurrection.
At that time the Apostles and the
Saints generally suffered severe per-
secution because OF their persistent
testimony OF the Christ, crucified and
rifen. The powerful Sadducees denied
the actuality Of a resurrection; their
opponents, the Pharisees. professed a
belief in the resurrection, but all
save those who had been converted
to Christianity through faith and re-
pentance denounced the solemn tes-
timonies of Christ's resurrection as
fiction and falsehood.
That the spirit OF Jesus Christ re-
turned from the abode of the dis
embodied and re-entered the body till
then reposing in the sepulchre Is spe-
ciflcally afirmed in Holy Writ. In
the early dawn OF that most mem
orable Sunday in history He was seen
by Mary Magdalene and then by
others, some of whom were permitted
to reverently touch His feet. In
the evening He stood amongst the
Apostles and quieted their fears by
the assuring demonstration BE

THAT IT IS 1 MYSELF; HANDLE
Me, AND SEE; FOR A SPIRIT
