he-will receive a artby body lil. that of the first Adain." That which is born of the flesh, is flesh ; and that whichii born of the spitit, is spirit '' (John 1 : 6).In the cme of the Church, it b the h e r intentions,and the efforts put forth as the outcome of these intentions,- which reprosent the character of the m w n1d~t8. Theimperfections of thought, word md deed, which are notwilful, but are the result of our organism rendered imperfect-ugh the Fall, am covered by the righteousnessof God in Christ Jesus. In the rearuraction, thefore,the cbgea in the peurons due to the imperfections of the '0esh, will not be reproduced, but thorn which are the resultsof the heart's intentions will be stamped on the perfectspiritual body which the Lord will create. In this waythe identity of the New Creature will be prmenkd, butnot the identity of the old hummn nature. It is as if atrained vocalist were to dug into e phonograph which hasbeen fitted with a faulty cylinder. The resulting recordwould be discordant. But God could destroy the faultycylinder, make a new one of different material and finerquality, and re~roduce upon it the wave-like impressionscaused by the anger's voice, and ignore tbe others due tothe imperfections of the cylinder. The result would bao perfect record which would give forth the beautiful..melody exactly as it had been sung into the phonograph,In the -.of the world, however, the various change8in the neurons will be reproduced in the haman or naturalbody, which will be created exactly as they were in theold organism. The result will be an exact reproductionof the character of the individual as it was at the time ofhis death. Little children who have died before they have .bad time to form character will have no bad habits torrnleam in tha resurrection. This willbe to some extentto their advantage, but on the other hand this advantage 'will be oou~terBnbnced by their lack of the lessons gained
