 +The creation of man is being accomplished by means of the 
 +Logos, the Word, which is the active principle in the Idea of the 
 +Deity. Man is conformed to the Idea through the Word, much as 
 +the statue is conformed to the sculptor’s idea by his use of mallet 
 +and chisel. 
 + 
 +Having sketched the general outline, Genesis is not concerned 
 +with the operation or process of creation or its conformation, and 
 +thus man is “formed of the dust of the earth” and having had 
 +life breathed into his nostrils, becomes a “living soul.”

 +==== A PRAYER FOR THE LONELY ==== 
 +O LORD, thou hast searched me and known me; 
 +\\ Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine up-rising; 
 +\\ Thou understandest my thoughts afar off. 
 +\\ Thou compassest my path, 
 +\\ And art acquainted with all my ways. 
 +\\ WHITHER shall I go from thy spirit? 
 +\\ Or whither shall I flee from thy presence? 
 +\\ If I ascend up into heaven Thou art there. 
 +\\ If I make my bed in hell, behold thou art there. 
 +\\ If I take the wings of the morning 
 +\\ And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, 
 +\\ Even there shall thy hand lead me 
 +\\ And thy right hand shall uphold me.—Psalms.

 +“THERE shall not be found among you anyone that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all these things are an abomination unto the Lord.”—Deut. 18:10-11.
