Adam and Fallen Man" Is the sub

For II by one mans ofense death
reigned by one: much more they which
receive abundance of grace and of the
gift of Righteousness shall reign in life
by one. Jesus Christ
Among the citations which comprise
the lesson sermon is the following from
the Bible: God that made the world
and all things therein, seeing that he
is Lord Of heaven and earth, dwelleth
not in temples made with hands;
neither Is worshiped with mems hands:
as though He needed any thing. seeing
He giveth to all life, and breath, and
all things; for in Him we live, and
move. and have our being; as certain
also Of your own poets have said. for
we are also His offspring" (Acts,
xvii.24 ,25, ,28.) The lesson-sermon also
includes the following passage from the
Christian Science text book, Science
and Health With Key to the Scrip
tures." by Mary Baker Eddy: I'm sci
ence man is the offspring of spirit. The
beautiful, good and pure constitute his
ancestry. His origin is not, like that OF
nortals, in brute instinct. nor does he
rass through material conditions prior
to reaching intelligence. Spirit is his
primitive and ultimate source Of being;
God is his Father, and life is the law
of his being" page 63)

which is common to all of us 1t is sur

who know exactly when their ancestors
came to America, from what part of the
