The Psahuist goes on to s.ay, but 'V/v will praise the I ord fonvermore. But Mr. Dunn wanted to snatch a -rcat link out of the endless chain of this eyermoro, in order to get thousands of years of unconsciousness or non-existence smuggled into it. , Mr. Dunn denies that a spirit exists as an entity in man, but scripture says God formed the spint in man. What is th.it but an entity ? Tho Psalmist hopes to walk //(roH(//t the valley of death, and to be sustained in doing so. H he is unconscious, how is he to walk or to need siistenanco.

Solomon had reasoned deeply with himself on the great problems of life and death, and good and evil, but at last he cleared up his doubts in his last re- marks that when the "silver cord should be loosed, the body should return to dust and the spirit to God who gave it." Hence it was misusing Scripture to take his musings as doctrinal proof when his conclusion a little further on was exactly the reverse. If soul must be held to mean life, what does David mean when he sayo the living shall praise the Lord for evermore. He that believeth hath everlasting life. How can it be everlasting if thousands of years are to come out of it? God breathed something into man, that thing must therefore be separable from him. That it is so separable is the plain teaching of scripture, which always refer to man as coQtinuing to exie* after the body dies, Wh at prompted the heathens to believe in immortality, if there is not a principle, a longing for it implanted within them? The case of the thief's prayer on the cross and the Saviour's answer— "To- day thou shalt be with me m Paradise," showed that the dead are conscious, and their reward is immediate, in part at least. Mr. Dvnn said his opponent's gospel was that of witches. He ridiculed it as a creed of superstition and necromancy. The soul of Abel cried from under the ground or altar on which he was sacrificed. The souls under the altar do live in the future and will reign with Christ a thousand years. If the body here is the soul's house, then there is another house in the heavens, and there will be a third house at the resurrection. Dr. Washington says the soul that sinneth it sluiU die, and then that it shall not die. He quoted a number of passages where souls are said to be slain with the sword. This is the way souls died. Beasts' souls (Num. 31, 28) were slain. Facts prove that mind depends on functional perfection of bodily organs. Now matter has more power than spirit. Pressure on brain causes cessation of thought, derangements of functions cause lunacy. Paul Iioped for eternal life, showing that he had not got it in fact, else he would not have hoped for it. The wages of sin is death, the gift of God is eternal life, given at the last day, but not sooner, eternal life is in the Son, he that hath the son hath eternal life, that is in reversion, or the promise of it. It is Claimed that Jesus and the thief went to Paradise up in heaven some- where the same day. But the thief's prayer was that he should be remembered when He came to his kingdom, not we»t but came. When would that be? when he came into his kingdom and set uj. that kingdom on the earth. To this all who waited for his appearing looked, and for his coming they hoped. Dr. Washington. The Saviour's answer is the basis of our belief, not the thief's prayer. To-day shalt thou be with me in Paradise. The brain is the me- dium through which the mmd works, and of course if the medium is deranged, the mind's working is interfered with. He says the wages of sin is death. But there is no condemnation to them which are in Christ. Now if, as Mr. Dunn says, the death of the body is the wages of sin, then no Christian should die ; but all die, therefore the death spoken of must mean something else. (ThefoUoieing is the conclusion of Hm Dr.' a speech, verbatim.) My opponent has undertaken to^o»ethat man is unconscious between death and the resurrection. To do this he must reconcile the plain meaning of God's Word irith his theory. He calls or. mo for proof. T nae.il not prove anj'thing. My duty is simply to point out the fallacies that underlie his attempts at proof. He says that man immediately after death, is as though he had not been, is where he was before being born, is therefore non-existent, is nowhere and is nUhimj. This is his theory, in plain language, not an inference from it. but his own statement.
