In our study last week We had a
prophecy Of the future fellowship OF
til Christians with their risen Lord
We turn e-an that view of coming ex-
periences to consi 'sr the beginning oi
all life Our lessons for the next three
months are from the most ancient
specimen Of human literature. Genesis
far outranks in age the papyrus rolls
Of Egypt, the Vedic hymns of India and
the zenda-avesta of Persia. Although
it was written centuries ago. for the
purpose of giving a spiritual interpreta-
ton Of the origin of the universe, last
scientists of our age took a position in
favor of the Biblical record OF creation.
The origin of the universe is more
than a secular and scientific problem
it is a spiritual question, for it strikes
at the very roots of religion as we'll as
science When rightly interpreted,
nothing in the Biblical record of the
creation will be antagonistic to scientific
truth when beth are properly under
stood and interpreted.
The opening statement Of the Bible
is an answer to the question of man
through all ages and races concerning
the races and countries we md tradi-
tions that have been handed down from
generation to generation that harmon
ize with the teachings OF our lesson.
Genesis lays emphasis upon the spir-
itual side Of creation, and was written
as book of religion rather than book
Of science, yet leaders in the scientific
field today find the teachings enunci-
-, -. n p
ing with the very latest scientific truths.
One of the research directors OF the
General Electric Co. expresses his con-
viction: "One cannot intimately view
the mechanism of the universe or ap-
proach close to the ultimate without at
least feeling the urge or even need for
belief in God-the Omnipresent Mind
that is at the bottom Of things"
God in Creation.
Three times in the portion assigned
for our study we find 1t recorded that
God created" The other parts of the
lesson say that He made" Created
connects the pre-creation period OF
nothing to the post-creation period OF
the universe. We recognize that it is
automatic that every cause must have
an effect. In the simple, exhaustive
and majestic statement of the opening
words of the Bible we are brought face
to face with God as the Creator. We
are informed that He created matter.
We are told how He created life, and
finally how He created spirit. Nc
scientist or philosopher has ever given
an explanation OF the origin Of matter,
life and spirit that surpasses that of
Genesis. In fact, science has no ex-
PLANTATION that is satisfactory for the
origin of matter, life and spirit, aside
from that taught us in our lesson.
The story of creation and the develop
ment Of Gods plan reveals the perfec-
ton of His program and the power of
the Almighty. Many modern sciences
have been built up through a study OF
His marvellous works that are revealed
in connection with creation. Accepting
the miracle Of creation requires the
exercise of faith. Once We recognize
God in the first of all miracles, all the
later miracles Of the incarnation, resur-
