that they might be further guided,
the pillar of cloud changes into a
pillar of fire to guide them through
the night, and he now felt sure that
the same divine spirit would provide
for him in doubt and uncertainty,
and thus he confides and waits for
Interpretation from the higher di-
vinity.
He is impressed with the divine
spirit, the full meaning and the intent
of the angels, and the event of that
night out in the forest of the Wilder
ness. This impression is followed by
bright light above the brightness
of the light of the sun at noon tide,
that shone round about him, and
out of that bright light came a voice
saying that which had occurred would
be revealed in the Acts of divine
men appointed, called Apostles, the
Acts which are to be a guide and
inspiration to all times and for all
people, for kindred and tongues,
the light of the Seven Golden Candle
Eticks of Asia.
Moses mind becomes reconciled
as he is given a broader vision into
the religious and civic affairs of all
future times. That the flames in the
burning bush is the same flame of
fire that burns in domestic affairs,
that burns in the affairs of state
and nation, that spirit which is the
fundamental of all government in
church and state. The spirit of hope,
the spirit of integrity, the spirit of
filial love, the spirit that underlies
all in all that keeps alive the in
Spiration springs eternally from the
breast of the human family.
Returning to the occurrence of the
burning bush, the greener the foil
age became, the more intense the
heat, the more verdure grew, sending
out the sweet smelling aromatic oder
that filled the air, attracting all who
passed that way, like the oder of
the fresh flowers of spring, kissed
with the dews of heaven and laden
with the sweetest breath of Nature.
When once an individual shifted the
oder from this tree, it made an i'm
preston on his mind that lasts him
throughout his life time. and at once
formed basis for all his future
actions of justice, and straight life
action, stirring him to seek the beau
tiful and serve as stimulent to
self activity.
A strange thing in the character
istic material of this tree was such
that the soaring and devouring ele-
ments seem to be the same as those
four elements that give life to plants,
the common rails, the genial sun
shine, the air and the timely winds
that make the plants steady in their
growth.
The next few days after the oc-
currence of the burning bush, people
who passed by were astonished at
what had taken place, not only with
the remarkable tree that still stood
out, and pointed to them by Moses,
the change in the other trees in the
| immediate vicinity, the under growth
and shrubbery and all plants, in every
direction took on new life as COM
pared with other plants more remote
from the burning bush, but the burn
ing bush had grown in many circles
that required years in the ordinary
process as compared with the other
trees and plants. Throughout the
long cycles of past ages, there has
been much scientific discussion re-
specting the general and species its
funda and its flora, its inhabitation
but no satisfactory scientific analysis
has been given by botanists, and in
deed, there can be none as this tree
is of divine origin, and therefore far
above human knowledge as the east
| is from the west. 1t surpasses the
knowledge of the wisest men.
However, there is one tree that
the scientists have overlooked, the
Tree of knowledge of Good and Evil.
the tree which contained within its
being, the power of life and death.
This same tree has existed through
out the duration of time. Burning
bush is the same historical tree that
grew in the garden, the one that our
fore parents were warned not to
touch, nor to partake of its fruit.
This burning bush is the tree of
life. Its nativity is the soul of the
redeemed, planted and watered by
the grace of God, planted within the
pure in heart, planted by the waters
of the river of life. Tree of Life,
the Divine Tree. No
