This teaching is founded squarety
on the opening chapter of the Bible,

what a wonderful record is this
first chapter of Genesis! How beauti-

sickness, sin. nor death. The man of
this first record of creation is not
material, not made of dust? The rec
ord statesthat God made man in His
image, after His likeness. In other
words. man was created God-like, and
