The second chapter of Gcnc>i-

chapter. Beginning with the sixtI.
verse OF the second chapter, it l.
stated, that the Lord God" caused
Il mist which "watcrcd the whole
iarc of the ground" Now, in the
hr>t chapter of Genesis, God
brought forth from the earth
and saw every thing that He had
made, and behold, it was very
good very God, the expression
OF His own infinite eternal self
existence. This finished creation
OF God Is the basis upon which
Christ Jesus built, and his
spiritual illumination denied the
evidence of the physical senses,
which states III the seventh verse
of the second chapter of Genesis,
that the Lord God formed man
OF the dust of the ground, and
breathcd into his nostrils the
breath of life; and MAN became !,

exists, Is His perfect work; that
He Is the only Creator, and that

self-completeness. When | awoke

to deny the reality of the false

phenomena of Gods creating, and
which end in death. l saw them
only as material concepts of ante

spiritual vision would reveal. |
grasped the eternal fact, that
spiritual sense would apprehend
the phenomena of Gods creating
which material sense, darkness,
hides from view.
Through spiritual sense, every
object in the universe, from the
least to the greatest, will grad
ually be revealed in its original
character, as created by God, real
and eternal. and forever compos-
ing His body, manifestation, or
universe. Material sense clothes
every object in Gods universe
with darkness, irnpcrfection. dis
cord, beginning, and end. Spiritual
sense will gradually perceive the
real objects of Gods creation, the
perfect phenomena of Spirit; for
