PROPHECY

In an address recently at the Central Hall, Westminster, Mr. David Davidson dealt with current' world affairs from the joint ständ- point of Biblical and Great Pyramid prophecy. The essential theme of the address was that Divinely revealed prophecy por-

'reality of life, the control of Soul over sense, and we shall perceive Christianity, or Truth, in its divine

must be Principle. This

the climax before harmonious and im- mortal man is obtained and his capabilities revealed. It is highly important in view of the immerse work to be accomplished before this recognition of divine Science can come to turn our thoughts towards divine Principle, that finite beller may be prepared to relinquish its error. Soul, or Spirit is God, unchangeable and eternal; and man coexists with and reflects Soul, God, for man is God's image." (Pages 322,120).

The joint standpoint of Biblical and Great Pyramid prophecy is proved by the symbolism which is

common to both. In this connec-

tion, it is significant that successive stages in the inverted pyramid of modern economic symbolism are the antithes of successive corres- the Upright ponding stages in Pyramid of Biblical and Great Pyramid symbolism. In the latter, the apex-stone symbolises our Lord Jesus Christ as "Head" and "Chief Corner Stone" "laid in theavenly)

sole foundation. Zion" as the He as "Head" is the first stage of the building, and the sequence of symbolic

drawn up into Him in spiritual Union, as the Theocentric" Stato on earth. The fourth stage is like-. wise made ready from all races of mankind, and is drawn up to filling form "a great mountain

whole earth." Throughout the the building, attraction is not earthwards but is heavenwards, so that the Head, Jesus Chrat, is "the sole toundation," "upholding all things by the Word of His Power" (Heb. i., 3), in accordance with His promise: "I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto Me." (John xii., 32).

The inverted pyramid of modern economic symbolism, on the other hand, stands balanced on its apex, the apex-stone symbolising the world's gold stock, which, like the golden pillar of the Johannesburg Exhibition of 1936, is symbolically represented as supporting the world. As in the Upright Pyramid. the apex-stone is the sole founda- tion and is the first stage of build- ing. The second stage of building is supported by the golden apex- stone, and represents the body of currency and credit. The latter, in turn, supports the third stage of building, which represents the administration of trade, Industry. and commerce in symbolic unión with the body of Currency and and credit. In Scriptural sym- bolism this third stage is referred to as the "wanton" or "harlot" system of mercantile administra- tion, in that it is the antithes's repre-
