BIBLE VERSES

EVENING AND THERE WAS MORNING, ONE DAY

"Evening" and morning symbolic of the indrawing and outgoing forces of manifestation. This "first day" signifies the period of the first Life-wave passing through the buddhic plane.

"Each Day would consist of an evening that witnessed the decline of force, and its disintegrating consequences, and of a morning that beamed on the progress of force." - FITZ SIMON, The Gods of Old, p. 16.

"The outward man perishes," as Paul says, "but the inward man is renewed day by day." The perishing of a form and method in which we have lived may naturally bring a pensive sadness like that which always comes to us as we watch a setting of the sun, but he who is in the true spirit of the sunset turns instantly from the westward to the eastern look. The things the day has given him, its knowledge, and its inspirations, and its friendship, and its faith,—these the departing sun is powerless to carry with it. They claim the new day in which to show their power and to do their work. Live deeply and you must live hopefully. That is the law of life." - PHILLIPS BROOKS, Mystery of Iniquity, p. 329.
