“John declared that "Christ received not of the fulness at the first," but that he "continued from grace to grace until he received a fulnesss and thus he was called the Son of God, because he received not of the fulness at the first."

Man must be born into mortality and live and die that he may continue in his progress toward eternal life and exaltation.” MenLifeFirstsMayEarthDiesChristBornGraceProgressSonEternalSalvationWork OutMortalityEternal LifeExaltation Author:Alma P Burton
