UNREST

We say that the world is moving,
And we think that to move is
best;
But whenever the speed
Begins to exceed
The normal" gait
We have known of late,
We call the result Unrest.
We are all in favor of Progress
Or that's what we profess;
8 But how shall we know
When it goes too slow?
And what shall we say
When it runs away?
How FAST may the world pro-
gress?

to settle the bill? What was the
need of his dying bodily as he
did?
So much for that.
Now listen:
Irepeat that the life which the
race in general will get at the
resurrection will be the Identical
same sort of life which Adam
had before he sinned. And it
rests entirely with US as to
whether we will KEEP our new
life as Adam COULD have kept
his, or whether we will LOSE it
again as Adam DID lose his. If
we are faithful and true to Him
who has redeemed us from the
First Death, then we will never
have to die any more. And if we
live eternally and don't die, that
will be eternal life. But if we
continue to trample His mercies
under our feet and fail to appre-
ciate what He has done for us,
then we will die the Second
Death, from which there will be
no resurrection.
Immortality, then, is not a
thing which we have as a present
possession, but something which
Jesus has promised to give His
followers at the resurrection.
Nobody has it now, and nobody
but His true saints will EVER
have it.
Your references are nothing
new to me. [ have read them all
hundreds of times, and [ have
explained most of them in this
paper dozens of times. However,
I am going to make a separate
article out of some of them and
explain them again for your es-
pecial benefit. I may not have
room for it in this issue, but il
will appear soon.
In the closing paragraph Of
your letter you admit that Jesus
DIED, and yet you say that me1
do NOT die. How is that? Dc
you dare to say that the Son oil
God was more mortal than mere
men? If men have immorta
souls that cannot die, surely Je
sus had one too, and in that case
how can you say that he died
It seems that your creed make:
it necessary for you to say tha'
lit was only his body that died
Well, you and your kind are say
ing all the time that the body i:
not the real person, but only thu
house that the real person live
lin. All right-let us say, then
that the house Jesus had beel
living in died, but Jesus himsel
didn't die. Where is your Sa
viour? It looks to me q plum
sight like you haven't got any.
The fool-killer., 1920-05-01

AA~
the express purpose of His conn.,
ing was to conquer death and
buy back for EVERY ONE the
privilege of life which had been
forfeited in Eden. Therefore the
whole human race-every child
of Adam-has E been
redeemed. Redeemed from
what? From the Adamic death,
of course. CAS- in Adam ALL
die, even so in Christ shall ALL
be made alive" Did you ever
read that? Did you ever think
what it means? Can't you see
that the redemptive work of
Christ applies automatically to
every person who suffered loss as
the result of Adams sin?
Of course the redemption
could not keep us from going in
to the Adamic death, because we
had already gone into it in the
persons Of our ancestors, Adam
and Eve. We were all IN THEM
at the time they incurred the
death penalty.
It is just as plain and simple
as anything can be. In our pres
ent condition we are all mortal,
because we have all got to die
the Adamic death. But Jesus
Christ has been through the door
of death and left it unlocked, so
that we also can get out. If it
were not for that fact WE would
just remain dead when we die
the first time, and that would be
the end of us.
The life which the race in gen.
eral will get in the resurrection
will be the same sort of life that
Adam had before he sinned. That
life COULD have been endless if
he had been obedient. The death
that we are all familiar with is
the penalty passed upon Adam
for his transgression. Therefore
if he had not transgressed he
would have lived forever, would
MT he? And wouldn't that have
been eternal life?
But you Orthodox people have
Matched up a theory that when
people die they are not really
dead, but you say they are still
alive and know as much as ever.
THAT is disputing Gods word, for
God told Adam that if he ate the
forbidden fruit he should DIE.
And that word DIE simply
meant that the whole man Adam
part of him which was
then alive-should cease to be
alive. There was not a word said
about it being some sort of "spir-
ltual death'-an 1ndia-rubbel
kind of death that could be made
to mean anything or nothing
Adam certainly understood that
it meant literal death, and tc
!, make sure that he didn't misun
: derstand it, God took pains tt
specify that he meant a RE.
TURNING TO DUST. For dust
thou art, and unto dust shalt
. thou return"-Gen. 3:19.
:, Isn't that plain enough.
But if you deny that Adam
really died, and say that it was
, only his old hull or house thai
died, while the real Adam re
manned alive, then you make Cox
a liar, and you make it unneces
sary for any Redeemer to come

Augusta, Ga,
May LIST, 1920

My dear Mr., Pearson:
First of all, | want to ask, are you
a child of God? Have you been born
again, received your spiritual birth
from Jesus Christ? If you have, then
I know YOU cannot doubt the immor-
tally of the human soul.
Will you please read some of the
following references and let Jesus
Christ, theSpirit of God teach you
the great truths in these passages:
Luke 2O:28; 16:22-26; $3.50; Matt. 25:-
46. Mark 9:41-48; Eccl. 1877; l Kings
17:21-22; Gen. 35:1S. This is Gods
Word. Though the heavens fall it
shall never fall.
May God through His Owl Holy
Spirit teach you that the immortality
of the soul is not a lie, but the truth.
When the human soul goes to hell
there is a gulf fixed, he cannot come
have no desire to come back to this
sinful world.
Does God get any glory out Of q
dipped in r~azor-soup? Will sinners
be convicted? No. The Spirit of
God is here on this earth today to con-
yict sinful men and teach them the
way back to God. The Word of God
is the Sword of the Spirit.
Jesus Christ is the greatest of all
teachers. Try Him and see if it is not
sc. I will take Jesus for my Teach
er. I am willing to sit at His feet
and learn Of Him, who died for me
end you and all men and who over
cam death, rose from the dead ard is
now at the right hand of God inter
cedirg for US all.

Pearson's Reply
My dear Miss Edna Verdery:
Your letter has been read very
carefully, and all your references
looked up and studied. [ know
you are an honest and well-mean
ing woman-or girl-whichevel
you are. I don't doubt that you
arc a true and faithful Christian
according to the best light that
you have. But you are al
tangled up on the soul question
and I know by experience that i
is very hard to get people of your
kind to see the truth.
Yes, my dear lady, / am g1a&
to say that I am a child of God
But instead Of that furnishing
any evidence that the human
soul is immortal, it was the yer.
thing that opened my eyes to tn
fact that the human soul is NOT
immortal.
Surely you have never give1
very much thought nor study t.
the mission of Jesus Christ int
this world, or you could see tina
the doctrine of the inherent i'm
mortality of the soul is an insul
to Jesus-a flat denial of tn
very purpose for which He cam
into the world. He came into

You Can't Brush Or
Wash Out Dandruf

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it. then you de-
stroy it entirely. To do this, get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub it
in gently with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all. of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more APP
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better
You can get liquid arvon al any drug
store. 1t is inexpensive and never fails
to do the work.-Adv.
