them. Revelation deals with but two truths; the physical man with his anti-spiritual nature, how to control and regulate him and to subdue him to the spiritual man; and the spiritual man, whom God created in His own image. But man-made theology has confused the two, and has attempted to spiritualize the physical man into the spiritual man. Revelation clearly differentiates between the spiritual birth and the physical birth-the spiritual man and the physical man. Upon this truth, depends the law and the gospel-upon this truth, depends the Divinity of Jesus Christ-the life to come and immortality.

"For as in Adam all die, so in Christ shall all be made alive" (1 Cor. 15: 22). That is, in the Garden of Eden, which was the first man's state of spiritual happiness and life when he was in spiritual harmony with God and God's piritual laws and God's spiritual universe, the physical man yielded to the law of lust and sexual passion when tempted by the first woman, his wife, and took into his spiritual consciousness the law of the carnal mind, fleshly lust and sexual passion which was death to his spiritual nature; but Christ being perfect in Spirit was not subject to the law of lust and sexual passion and the carnal mind, but in perfect harmony with the spiritual nature of the Father, spiritual laws and the spiritual universe, and the spiritual man, by partaking of Christ's spiritual nature, can be redeemed from this state of consciousness, wherein the law of lust and sexual passion has entered his state of spiritual consciousness, and be restored to a perfect state of spiritual consciousness with the Father and in harmony with God's spiritual laws and the spiritual universe. The man was turned out of Eden, from the Image of God, on account of lust-sin; and lust-sinmust be overcome for the soul to see God again. This is Redemption; this is Salvation; this is heaven. The physical birth is of the physical man and non-spiritual. The spiritual birth is of God, who made the spiritual man and partakes of the heavenly nature.

If marriage be holy-if the physical conception and birth be spiritual-then we would have Heaven on this earth; and the physical man would be immortal and the brotherly love of the physical man taught by the infidel and materialistic world, which the priesthood of the Catholic world and the ministers of the Protestant

world, have joined in proclaiming, in preaching a physical god to the physical senses of men, would be possible here and we would have Heaven on this earth. But the physical man and the carnal mind are anti-spiritual and at war with the spiritual man-and marriage and the naturalbirth are unholy and anti-spiritual-and mau_must die; and the spiritual man must be freed from the bondage to mortal for the spiritual man to come into his own in the spiritual kingdom.

Upon the truth of the this principle, depends the Immaculate and Supernatural Conception of Jesus Christ, His divinity and the immortality of the spiritual man. Marriage is honorable moral-but of the flesh and not of the spirit. There was no death until Sex Lust was conceived in consciousness of the Mind and Soul, and death followed as the result of Lust. For the Sin of Sex-Lust Adam and his wife, Eve were joined together as one flesh; and told that they should bring forth mortal offspring, "in sorrow and pain." Death-Sex-Lust-is the last enemy to be overcome, and they who overcome Sex Lust -Death-are resurrected-restored to life-"and neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are the children of God, of Life, and are equal unto the angels." Sex worship brought us here in this Mortal State; and Sex worship keeps us here; and Sex worship (Death) must be overcome for us to become the children of God and "Die no more."

THE ORIGIN OF EVIL AND SIN.

God is Light. God is Life. God is Spirit. God is Good. God is Love. If God be Spirit, the opposite and the Absence of God, must be matter. If God be Love, the opposite and the absence of God, must be hatred and malice. If God be Light, the Absence and the opposite of God, must be darkness. If God be Spirit and Life, the opposite and the absence of God, must be matter and death. If God be Good, the absence and the opposite of God, must be evil. If God be Life, the opposite and the absence of God, must be death. The Scripture teaches us that before the material creation was created, the universe was all spiritual and that God, the Universal Spiritual Intelligence, reigned supreme in His spiritual kingdom and that there were spiritual creatures-members of His spiritual kingdom. These were angels-holy and spiritual in their nature. They possessed Light and Life; they were in harmony with God's spiritual universe-His laws and spiritual life. Their thoughts were His thoughts. They thought His mind. They were His messengers and reflected His Image and mind. They were begotten, by God the Father, and conceived by God the Holy Spirit. They were begotten and conceived by the dual Consciousness, the Father and Mother God.

The Scripture teaches us that the Devil-Satanone of these angels-rebelled against God's spiritual universe and the spiritual laws which govern and regulate itand became the Fallen Angel. This Fallen Angel violated God's spiritual laws which govern His spiritual universe and partook of darkness, rather than Light-death, rather than Life. "And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils-evil thoughts, thoughts of the flesh-are subject unto us through thy name. And He said unto them, "I beheld Satan as lightning fall from

heaven." The mind of Satan is the mind of the flesh. (Luke 10: 17-18). "And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day" (Jude 6). "Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the Devil-the thoughts of the flesh as a roaring lion, walketh about seeking whom he may devour" (Peter 1: 5-8). "He that commiteth sin is of the devil for the devil, sinneth from the beginning, for this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil" (John 1: 3-8). Hereafter, I will not talk much with you: for the Prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me". His power is in the flesh and the carnal mind of the flesh is his mind (John 14: 30). "For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment: and spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly; and delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: for that righteousman dwelleth among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds; the Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished" (2 Peter 2:4-9). Death is the absence of God, as the only life, in the Consciousness of the Soul.

Here we clearly see by the authority of revelation that before the material creation, all was Spirit, Light and Life; and that there were spiritual beings who inhabited God's spiritual universe and enjoyed their spiritual state in perfect harmony with the laws of Light and Life of God's spiritual nature and His spiritual universe. That some of these spiritual beings rebelled against God's spiritual universe and its spiritual laws and His spiritual nature-rebelled against spiritual Light, spiritual Life and Spirit, which is God. Having rebelled against Light they partook of darkness, having rebelled against Life they partook of death, and having rebelled against Spirit,

which is God, they partook of matter and flesh. In the very nature of things there, can be no light without the opposite darkness, no life without the opposite death, no Spirit without the opposite nature which is manifested in matter and flesh, no good without the opposite evil. God is the only life and light in the universe, and the absence of God as life and light is death and darkness-this is the state of those fallen beings-God cast them out from His presence as Spirit-light and life and having been cast out of His presence as Spirit-light and lifethey partook of matter-darkness and death; matter darkness and death-is the absence of spirit—light and

life.

If God is Reality, Light, Truth, Life and Spirit; the only way that He could manifest the Counterfit of Himself, would be through the Unreal, Darkness and Matterand they are the Sex and Lust Senses of the Flesh.

God is Good, Light, Life, and Spirit and all that existed in His spiritual nature, mind, and universe had the attributes of Good, Light, Life and Spirit. But when the spiritual beings which were a part of His spiritual universe rebelled against His universe, its laws and its spiritual nature, they partook of the opposite nature and became the opposite in their attributes to God, His spiritual laws and spiritual universe. They partook of the nature of darkness, evil and death, which is manifested in the material creation and the fleshly man.

Revelation teaches us that the Chief of the spiritual beings who rebelled against God, God's spiritual laws and God's spiritual universe, is the Devil.

The power of the fallen spirits, their nature and attributes, which are contrary to God and to God's spiritual universe, are manifested and represented in the material

man.

The spiritual man was created in God's image and in accordance and in harmony with God's spiritual nature, His spiritual laws and His spiritua universe. The material man in his fleshly nature, who is conceived in passion and born of woman, partakes of the nature of the fallen spirits, the Chief of whom, Revelation tells us, was the Devil, who is out of harmony with God's spiritual nature-His spiritual laws and spiritual universe and is in a state of rebellion against God.
