gone on through an eternai past. Inc
revelation, then, in Genesis tells US
a truth that modern science is only
now at this late day beginning to
discover.
"In the beginning God" Before
ever there was an earth or a sun or
star God was. This brings us to
the fundamental truth that this uni
verse Is primarily a spiritual SOW

and ethical basis for orderly, progres

ernments and educa tional, religious
and domestic institutions. Instead OF
the Cynicisn and corruption which
flow from atheism and agnosticism. it
brings the peace. purity and power
which flow from the knowledge that
we are not creatures OF chance crop

but objects OF n Heavenly Father s

Since there was a beginning, unless
God was in that beginning to create

The man at the cave mouth found
his answer. 1t was-God.
He had a second question. How
old is all of this? When was it
made?"
That question was repeated a thou.
sand times. Children asked it at bed
time. Men asked it. Women talked
about it.
They found the answer. I'm the
beginning God created the heavens
and the earth" They had no calen.
ming was enough. They were con-
tent.
SO the book of Genesis took form.
II was made up of the bedtime stories
told and retoId, passed down from
the men who lived in caves TO the
men who stretched tents between the
trees
Centuries passed Men forgot They
began to say that God had written
this book. They figured out dates
They added note in the margin, and
said that God had created all the
heavens and the earth in the veal
1904 before the birth of Jesus of NaZa
reth. God had done all OF this in one
week. No one contradicted them.
The minds of men do not stant
still. More centuries passed. "A nun
dred years ago there were restles:
scientists asking many questions. Mer
uncovered rocks and studied fossils
Other men studied animals and bird!
| and fish. Others traced out old in
scriptions in caves. They worked fo
years. They made many mistakes
They came from their study Will
some new truths about which the!
are all agreed
They tell US of q world which i
millions of years old. They tell u
Of q creation which has occupied un
told ages. They hold up man as th'
product of this age-long unfolding o
| the powers of the heavens and th'
| earth.
This is evolution.
The truth of evolution gives reacl
| and power to religion. 1t gives III
the right to believe in a God who
has been in the universe from th'
| beginning. a God who works through
the orderly process Of law.
That is the essence of religion.
