has it entered into the heart of man the extent of the glory and reward that will be given unto such 1 I believe my friends and brethren and sisters according to the scrip dureg that the only name under heaven by which man can be exalted in the presence of almighty god a partaker with christ in the fullness of tha glory of god in the celestial kingdom is that of jesus savior of mankind I 1 be here that all men will be raised the dead and through the atonement and the resurrection of the lord jesus christ and only those who are lansed from the dead firm believers in the doctrines laid down by the savior will be permitted to enter into gods kingdom As a bellaver bell in this doctrine I 1 expect some day to have the pleasure of again meeting my friend and brother judge dee on the other side of anis vale of asars tsars possessed of immortality and eternal life and I 1 believe that we shall know each other there as we knew each other here as of te church pt god as par takers of the
