27 And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which am but ^adust and ashes:

  17 Who shall say that it was not a miracle that by his ^aword the heaven and the earth should be; and by the power of his word man was ^bcreated of the ^cdust of the earth; and by the power of his word have miracles been wrought?

  12 Q. What are we to understand by the sounding of the ^atrumpets, mentioned in the 8th chapter of Revelation?
  A. We are to understand that as God ^bmade the world in six days, and on the seventh day he finished his work, and ^csanctified it, and also formed man out of the ^ddust of the earth, even so, in the beginning of the seventh thousand years will the Lord God ^esanctify the earth, and complete the salvation of man, and ^fjudge all things, and shall ^gredeem all things, except that which he hath not put into his power, when he shall have sealed all things, unto the end of all things; and the sounding of the trumpets of the seven angels are the preparing and finishing of his work, in the beginning of the seventh thousand years—the ^hpreparing of the way before the time of his coming.

  35 The ^aelements are the ^btabernacle of God; yea, man is the tabernacle of God, even ^ctemples; and whatsoever temple is ^ddefiled, God shall destroy that temple.

  7 And I, the Lord God, formed man from the ^adust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the ^bbreath of life; and ^cman became a living ^dsoul, the ^efirst flesh upon the earth, the first man also; nevertheless, all things were before created; but spiritually were they created and made according to my word.

  25 By the ^asweat of thy ^bface shalt thou eat bread, until thou shalt return unto the ground—for thou shalt surely die—for out of it wast thou taken: for ^cdust thou wast, and unto dust shalt thou return.

  59 That by reason of transgression cometh the fall, which fall bringeth death, and inasmuch as ye were born into the world by water, and blood, and the ^aspirit, which I have made, and so became of ^bdust a living soul, even so ye must be ^cborn again into the kingdom of heaven, of ^dwater, and of the Spirit, and be cleansed by blood, even the blood of mine Only Begotten; that ye might be sanctified from all sin, and ^eenjoy the ^fwords of ^geternal life in this world, and eternal life in the world to come, even immortal ^hglory;

  7 And the ^aGods formed man from the ^bdust of the ground, and took his ^cspirit (that is, the man’s spirit), and put it into him; and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living ^dsoul.

  26 For the ^aatonement satisfieth the demands of his ^bjustice upon all those who ^chave not the ^dlaw given to them, that they are ^edelivered from that awful monster, death and ^fhell, and the devil, and the lake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment; and they are restored to that God who gave them ^gbreath, which is the Holy One of Israel.

  2 Q. What are we to understand by the four beasts, spoken of in the same verse?
  A. They are ^afigurative expressions, used by the Revelator, John, in describing ^bheaven, the ^cparadise of God, the ^dhappiness of man, and of beasts, and of creeping things, and of the fowls of the air; that which is spiritual being in the likeness of that which is temporal; and that which is temporal in the likeness of that which is spiritual; the ^espirit of man in the likeness of his person, as also the spirit of the ^fbeast, and every other creature which God has created.

  33 For man is ^aspirit. The elements are ^beternal, and ^cspirit and element, inseparably connected, receive a fulness of joy;

  7 And the ^aGods formed man from the ^bdust of the ground, and took his ^cspirit (that is, the man’s spirit), and put it into him; and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living ^dsoul.

  15 And the ^aspirit and the ^bbody are the ^csoul of man.
