194 THE THRESHOLD OF EVOLUTION 



tion, which is to enable mankind to complete his conquest of 

 nature. After another three days it will reach its prime 

 when he succeeds upon the Seventeenth Day, by means of a 

 scientific government to control and to conquer himself by 

 preventing crime, and lastly after another lapse of three days 

 evolution is doomed to die with the completion of human 

 wisdom, the last effort of evolution, when, on the Twentieth 

 Day, the earth is changed into heaven. But up to the Eleventh 

 Day the forces that human will has been evolving, are not of 

 sufficient magnitude to materially alter the natural evolution 

 of man's mind, which has, up to the Eleventh Day, been 

 governed by the hand of fate, not by any marked influence of 

 his mind over creation. Hence it has been comparatively easy 

 to connect the sequence of the two courses of the evolution of 

 the world, and of the Trinity of God in Nature, but from this 

 onward it is more difficult to connect the two together, except 

 by merely pointing out, as Table III. does, that the order of 

 their development corresponds in the order of its sequence 

 with their respective development, both in the Tables of 

 Trinity and in the course of evolution and history, a more 

 detailed record of the events of which the concurrent evolution 

 of language will shortly produce. But there are important 

 links between Geology and History difficult to connect. 



From this point the influence of natural laws is slowly 

 to be brought into subjection by the power of the will of 

 man, now nearing perfection, by supplanting and ruling 

 the powers of the Spirit of God the Father, which have up to 

 this age of evolution governed and controlled not only the 

 Universe He has created, but have also held the will of man 

 in a bondage of fear and trembling, at the forces of nature he 

 feared and worshipped because he could not comprehend them. 



Between the Seventh and Eleventh Day (the reader will 

 remember that I have tried to impress upon his mind that it 

 takes three days from the conception to the birth of any attri- 

 bute of God's Trinity in the ages or days of creation) the 

 realisation of the Word of God in Genesis, " Let us create 

 man to our own image and likeness," has come about and 

 produced changes too rapidly for evolution to be able to retain 

 their records. As I have elsewhere pointed out, this coming 

 of the three forces of the three persons of God's Trinity into 

 nature, constituted the likeness of God in man's soul. Previ-
