THE INCREDIBLE HUMAN POTENTIAL 197Notice further! In the resurrection chapter <strong>of</strong> the Bible, weread: "Now this 1 say, brethren, that ftesh and blood cannot inherilthe kingdom <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong>; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption"(1 Cor. 15:50). <strong>The</strong> Kingdom <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong> is something nohuman, <strong>of</strong> ftesh and blood, can en ter or inherit!Now do ftesh and blood people enter into the CHURCH?
