B. A.--Born again.<br />

That is <strong>the</strong> first degree everyone takes in <strong>the</strong><br />

school of Christ. Writing to <strong>the</strong> Corinthians Paul<br />

says, “And last of all He was seen of me also, as<br />

one born out of due time.” 1 Cor. 15:8. Christ said,<br />

“Marvel not that I said unto <strong>the</strong>e, Ye must be born<br />

again.” John 3:7. But right in connection with that<br />

“must” is ano<strong>the</strong>r. And as Moses lifted up <strong>the</strong><br />

serpent in <strong>the</strong> wilderness, even so must <strong>the</strong> Son of<br />

man be lifted up. “Ye must be born again,” “<strong>the</strong><br />

Son of man must be lifted up”, and in Him is <strong>the</strong><br />

life for <strong>the</strong> new birth. The first degree <strong>the</strong>n is Born<br />
