THE TESTIMONY FROM GODS
OWN WORD:
Gods Spirit Prepared Jesus Body in
the Womb of the Virgin Mary.
HEBREWS 1O:5-A BODY HAST THOU
PREPARED ME. Compare Luke 1868:
Matthew 1:18-25)
JOHN 114-The Word was MADE FLESH
GALATIANS 4:4-God sent forth His Son,
MADE OF A WOMAN.
JEREMIAH 31:22-The Lord hath created
a new thing in the earth: WOMAN SHALL
COMPASS A MAN
ROMANS 1:3, 4-Concerning His Son
Jesus the Christ, Who was MADE of the seed
of David according to the flesh;
But DECLARED the Son of God with pow
er by the resurrection from among the
dead.
In that Body His Soul (SeH-comscious
Lte) Died for Our Redemption.
ISAIAH 53:10-Thou shalt make His soul
an offering for sin.
This is why God forsook Him: He gvas
m the mnrepentant sinners place.
MATTHEW 26:46-My God! My God!
why hast Thou forsaken Me?
MATTHEW 27:42-He saved others: Him
self He cannot save.
By Gods grace, He died for every man.
HEBREWS 2:9-He by the grace of God
should taste death for every man.
1 CORINTHIANS 15:3-Christ died for
our sins according to the (Old Testament)
Scriptures.
That Body 7VaS actually Buried in rock
hewn tomb, where no other body had ever
lain.
CORINTHIANS 15:4-He was buried.
LUKE 23:50-55-And, behold, there was
man named Joseph, counsellor; and he was
a good man, and just:
(The same had not consented to the coun-
sci and deed of them) he was of Arimathaea,
city of the Jews: who also himself waited
for the Kingdom of God.
This man went unto PLATE and begged the
body of Jesus
And he took it down, and wrapped it in
linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was
hewn in stone, wherein never man before
was laid.
And that day was the preparation, and the
sabbath drew on
And the women also, who came with Him
from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the
sepulchre, and how His body was laid
Compare John 19:38-42)
In that Body, the Christ arose from
among the Dead, and Made Several Differ
ent Appearances before He 7Vent back to
Hedven
MATTHEW 28:10-15-Then said Jesus un-
to them, Be not afraid: go tell My brethren
that they go into Galilee, and there shall they
see Me.
Now when they were going, behold, some
of the watch came into the city, and showed
unto the chief priests all the things that were
done.
And when they were assembled with the
elders, and had taken counsel they gave large
money unto the soldiers,
Saying, Say We, His disciples came by night
and stole Him away while we slept.
And if this come to the governors ears, we
will persuade him, and secure you.
So they took the money, and did as they
were taught: and this saying is commonly
reported among the Jews until this day.
This passage says that the Jews told that
the disciples took the body away in order to
fool the people, but Russell says "God sm-

Weighty Problems Facing Extra
Session of Congress

The eyes of the nation are centered with
far more than ordinary interest upon the
Sixty-sixth Congress, which convened in
extra session at the call of President Will
son, on May 10.
One editorial writer expresses the hope
that it will be a Congress of common sense
He says that the country wants construc-
tive Congress. For the past two years the
national law making body has been voting
colossal sums in an effort to win the war,
but now business should be let down safely
from the stills upon which it has been gait
ed He also remarks that the country wants
the jumbled railroads placed on firm foun-
dation, SO that industry can go ahead fear
less1y
One of the great problems before the
extra session of Congress is the League of
Nations. 1t is not probable that the COW
enant will be ratified without various amend
ments, and few senator's are strongly op-
posed to it, in any event
Senator Knox, of PENNSYLVANIA, former
Secretary of State, declares that it would
be national suicide for the United States to
bind itself to the revised League of Ma
tons covenant. He says that the revised in
strument is even more Objectionable than
the original draft, and that it is his belief
that the federal constitution would not per-
NIT the senate to bind the United States to
such pact.
Senator William E. Borah, of Idaho, is
quoted in letter to James Williams, Junior,
editor of The Boston Transcript, as saying:
I'VE have before us now, question
greater and graver than which as people
we have ever considered 1t involves the
abandonment of the policy of Washington

VII. IS THE BLOOD OF JESUS, THE
THE WORD OF RISSEIIIsM.


Volume |, Page 1889 Suppose the total
number of human beings since Adam to be
one hundred billions, and that only one-half
OF these had sinned, it would require all of
the fifty billions of obedient, perfect men to
die IN order to give ransom for all the fifty
billion transgressors.
Volume |, Page 1867 Had sin not been
permitted, the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus
and Of HIS Church, the reward of which
is the Divine nature (even to Jesus at the
resurrection), would have been impossible.
Again, Russell writes:
We, as members of Christ's body, are
yielding up Our lives in sacrifice during this
age; and these sacrificed Hves, counted in
zOsth HIS, constitute the blood of the Christ,
zVhach seals the neav covenant betzveen God
and the zVorld.

Body
Instead of Ha7ing the Body that 70as
Cyacifed During the Forty Days (Volume
2, Page 12o-12o), He instantly created and
assumed such body of clothing and flesh
as He saw fit for the occasion, and for the
purpose intended.
The creation of the body and clothing IN
which He appeared to them, was proof un-
questionable that Christ was no longer a hu-
man being. He vanished out of their
sight The human body of flesh and bones,
and its clothing, which appeared suddenly
while the doors were shut, simply disap-
peared or dissoEved into the same elements
from 7Ohich He had created them fe7O
moments before . :. The power mani
tested by our Lord and the angels, to create
and disSol7,e the clothing in which they ap-
peared, was just as superhunan as the
creating and dissolving of their assumed
human bodies.
Some Christians draw very absurd con-
clusions from this expression of our Lord
as to the verify of His assumed body OF
flesh, bones, and clothing.
The bodies in which Our Lord appeared
were real human bodies, and not mere de-
lusions.
Many Christians have the idea that our
Lords glorious spiritual body is the Very
same body that was crucifed and laid away
in Joseph's tomb. This is a great mistake.
We have no more reason to suppose that
our Lords spirit body since His resurrec-
ton is a human body than we have for
supposing that His other spirit body (the
body of the Archangel MichaeD prior to
His human birth was human. Our Lords
human body aOaS, however, systematically
removed from the tomb.
Volume 2, Page 123) The body must
be away to make faith in His resurrection
possible.

 RIDE FOR REX oEAcH.

A band of C. s. Cavalrymen sta toned on the Texas border plays an important part in Heart of the Sun set" splendid picturization of Rex Beach's famous story. releasej through Goldwyn.
 About 50 American sharpshootcrs. among their number some of the worlds greatest horsemen and crack shots. were pressed into service through the courtesy of their com manding officer, who gladly consent cd to help Director Frank Powell out of a predicament resulting from his failure to gather enough Texas cow boys for several biz scenos in the picture.
 That no band of cowboys could have accompanied what tAs galsas border defenders did in q way of riding and shooting is amply attested by the stirring scenes obtained. The U. 8. SharpshoOters never went after . band of snipers or a force Of treacherous vfllistas with more dc ternInation than they showed in their mad dash lover the border to rescue the pretty heroine and the man who had gone single-handed to her defence.

MIR. FAiRRANks' NEW PhoToPLAH ONE OF UNUSUAL NOVELTY.

Optimism, humor, excitement and novelty are the principal features of Douglas Fairbanks new photoplay "He Comes Up Smiling" which will be presented at the Coliseum theatre Sunday. The farce upon which the picture is based, was highly success full on the stage several years ago, but 1t is. said the screen version Is even more satisfactory to those who like the ingredients which have been provided by Mir. Fairbanks in this splendid production. ( 5ses < <. ,.g {,
 The part of Jerry; who is known by the nights of the Road as "The Watermelon" Is that of young man who has ambition, but who is inclined to live life of vagabondage Lured by the green wood and an ir resistible desire to, experience new sensations along the broad highway Jerry is character which stands out distinctly as one of MT. Fair banks most novel and enjoysble screen characterizations.
 The picture is ftiled with numerouf novel situations and the action + exceedingly rapid. Jerry chases g canary bird over hill and dale, into houses and over hOusetops; he is in turn chased by a bevy of beer and he does remarkable stunts in g mild automobile drive across noun tain. The role of the tramp is unique even in his record of unusual char acterizations, but MT. Fairbanks seems thoroughly at home therein.
 Marjorie Daw is MT. Fairbanks leading woman and a remarkable list of players has, been. provided to in. tcrpret the other roles. Chief among these are Frank Campeau, Herbert Standing, Bull Montana, Jay Dwig gins and Kathleen Kirkham.
