NEXT STEP IN EVOLUTION 



In the inspired picture-history 

 of creation, an Adam is the type- 

 life of the kingdom of the natural 

 man; in the New Testament, 

 Christ is presented in every way 

 as the type-life of the kingdom 

 of the spiritual man. " The first 

 man Adam was made a living soul ; 

 the last Adam was made a quick- 

 ening spirit. Howbeit that was 

 not first which is spiritual, but 

 that which is natural ; and after- 

 ward that which is spiritual" (1 

 Cor, xv. 45, 46). 



Here, also, the law of conform- 

 ity to type is manifest. Each 

 type-life is perfect, but those who 

 are born through the type -life 

 begin at the bottom ; the " fall " 

 is great from the type -life to the 

 beginning of growth in the next 

 higher kingdom. But from that 

 onward the battle of evolution is 

 to secure likeness to the type.
