Text of the Lesson, Qen. i, 1, to ii, a.
Memory Verses 27, 28— Golden Text.
• Qen. i. I—Cemmentary Prepared by
*«v. D. M. Stearns.
In our meditatiou upon this most
wonderful |»ortion of the most won
-lerful book ever written we will prob
*bly reiwnt many things. hoping that
hus the precious truths amy enter
■i»»ny hearts. More than erer do we
lewire to be fnlly under the control of
aim who wrote It. that He may say
hrough as only that which ts truly
Hi* own. The opening section assign
ed to us for today's lesson contains In
the first terse the record of creation.
:n the second the resuk of a great
urastrophe and In all the rent an ac
count of a great six days' restoration
»r fashioning anew of the work which
md by a Judgment been brought Into
-httos.
It Is not written that in six days
I»d created, but La six days the Lord
:iaJe (or fashioned) heaven and earth,
he sea and ali that In them ts (lb.
«. Hi. or. as It la in Gea. tt. 3, "all
work, which God created and
uarie (margin, created to make). The
3r*t verse of Just seres Hebrew words
nd twenty-eight letters tella all we
u«w of creation and does not tell y*
mythlng as to when It wa*r It Is a
tateletti statement and. for aught we
kuow. may refer to what took place
uililuns of years is the past Other
'•rrwes hearing upon this which abouJd
!>e most prayerfully considered are Pa.
txxill. «. 9. and Heb. Xt a. which af
firm that the creating word brought
>nto existence that which did not exist
liefore.
That the creation was by Him whom
know as the Son of God la most
»' - inly stated In John I, 1-3; Col. 1. 12-
.. Thus-believing the first verse to
he Bible, one can readily believe every
irarle and wonderful record In the
vh«»le book, according te Jer. xxxii.
IT. and find comfort In It as the proph
ets and apostles did (Isa. xl. 28-31;
\cts Iv. 24-31>. The words "la the be
ginning God" hare helped some whom
i kuow. for they hare said. I will not
•egin that which I cannot begin with J
:««!.. We do well to pray that all oar
•rorktt may lie begun, continued and :
-«U»d in Him.
In the second terse the R. T. reads. 1
And the earth was (or became) waste 1
.md Told.** In Isa. xlt, 18, we read. j
"He created it not a waste." We know, j
tlwrefore. that the second Terse does t
not describe it as He crested it There j
«re only two other places where the
words translated "without form snd
roid" are used together (Iss. XXXIT,
II; Jer. it. 23). and in each there is s
Isolation because of a judgment, so
we conclude that in Gen. 1. 2. we sre
reading of a desolation caased by s
judgment because of a great rebellion.
The suggestion by Peuiber In "Earth's
Harliest Ages" that possibly the deril
tirfore he fell was in coutrol of thi*
farth may be well worth considering.
i»ut we must watt.
Oter this waste and toid condition
;he spirit of God moved, and God said.
Let there be light, and there was
ight"—more literally. "Light be. ami
Urbt was." Thus early In the book
we are made acquainted with God a*
Father. Son and Holy Spirit and are
«hown that all things are accomplished
»»y the Spirit through the word. In
he first terse we hate already noticed
1 four times setea of letters, and If
*e count we shall find In ear lesson
*«Mlay the name "God" just fire times
even, suggesting an abundant com
rieteness (l. 20-23; IL l-3». -•
-In this section God ts seen working
juhindered by His Spirit and His
*ord, and when He la allowed to work
;* unhindered tn us we shall be per
'ectly new creatures to His glory. Let
hose who desire to know God count
he number of times that the different
;*rbs are associated with Hfa name
*Hd do not accept my figures nates*
rou prote them correct: Said flOt. saw
7i, divided (8). called $K created S>.
'•lessed (3). made (ft. rented (2). set
-nded. finished, sanctified, given (IV
t waa so (8). let (14). More important,
nowever, hi It to notice that God alone
■n seen working, so It was hi Christ
when He waa here aa man, and so It
should be In us (Phil. 11. 18).
Inasmuch aa there are ages enough
for all the geological periods between
the first two terses. 1 am willing to ac
the data as ordinary days, but
>t ~eftMrbe fully pemaded {or
iiimself. "***•-
Not only bare we here tnwrecord of
t Jod working by His Spirit and*"BMa
word In earth, air and sea. but we sre
tanght by II Cor. Iv, d». to Qtod-afe anal
.»gy In the work of God In man. whose
life because of sin Is all wasts and
rold and dark.
By the spirit and the word light ea
ers the dark soul. Christ Ts received,
and there ts a new blrtb. Thus becom

Is Gov. Newland a Candidate?
Statesville Landmark.
Some weeks ago a report was
i sent out from Washington that
Lieut. Gov. Newland was a can
didate for collector of internal
revenue in this district and that
;he had been to the capital in
i that interest,
The Lieutenant Governor re
i turned home last week, he says
from a business trip to Washing
j ton and a visit to his daughter,
j Mrs. Day, at Chester, Pa. He
says he was not in Washington
in the interest of an office for
: himself; and the statement sent
;out from Lenoir, which thus
j quotes Mr. Newlands, adds that
the report that he is to be a can
didate "has been given no cre
dence by him."
This language leaves the
matter' in doubt. Is the Lieu
tenant Governor a candidate or
not?
