171 CIT MO Bondage or Liberty, Which Finally, brethren, whatever is
true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure,
what ever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any
excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about
these things Phil. 4 8. Every man believes himself to be In bond
age to the flesh and to the things o the flesh. All suffering is
the result of this belief. The history of the coming of the
Children of Israel out of their long bondage in Egypt is
descriptive of the human mind, or consciousness, growing up out of
the animal or sense part of man and into the spiritual part. Then
the LORD said speaking to Moses, 1 have seen the affliction of my
people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their
taskmasters I know their sufferings, and 6 Lessons in Truth I have
come down to deliver them out of thehand of the Egyptians, and to
