376 BIBLE REVIEW June-July<br />

or the Solar man control over the power of generation,<br />

typified by the death onthe cross, each individual <strong>com</strong>posing<br />

the social structure of the people of God, as a<br />

part of a homogenous body, advances to greater knowledge<br />

and uses in being, upwards with the Solar man,<br />

into the seven creative functions governing the heavenly<br />

spheres, reaching successively in his social altruistic<br />

State, Power, Discrimination, Wisdom, Strength, Honor,<br />

Glory, and Blessing. In that state, as has been so often<br />

stated, the <strong>com</strong>munal idea reaches perfection, and every<br />

branch of human activity is exercised for the benefit and<br />

uses of the whole unit, so well illustrated in the individual<br />

body of a regenerate man, wherein the soul uses each<br />

and every function for the advantages of the whole<br />

state possessing every feature of culture and civilization,<br />

wherein arts, sciences, literature, inventions, mechanics,<br />

and every useful branch of human activity are to fleurish<br />

for the advancement and uses of the whole State.<br />

From what has been said regarding the upward path<br />

of certain planets in the Solar system, and of the Sun<br />

itself, it is plain that the intelligences dwelling in those<br />

regions of eternal light not being subjects to the serpent's<br />

will, and masters of the energies of their own<br />

being. enjoy a never-ending consciousness in being, in<br />

an etherial or fiery form, which, when necessity may<br />

arise enables them to transpose their very presence to<br />

distant worlds, and by means of thought project upon<br />

and into the aura of opaque people like those on earth,<br />

images or forms reflecting creative facts in being, or<br />
