A Reservoir of Means. God spoke, and His words created His works in the natural world. God screation is but a reservoir of means made ready for Him to employ instantly to do His pleasure (Letter131, 1897).26 (Ephesians 3:15).

7 A Larger Family. Infinite love how great it is! God made the world to enlarge heaven. He desiresa larger family of created intelligences (MS 78, 1901).27. Man, a New and Distinct Order. All heaven took a deep and joyful interest in the creation of the world and of beings were a new and distinct order. They were made in the image of God, and it was the Creator s design that theyshould populate the earth (The Review and Herald, February 11, 1902).29 (Psalm 104:14). Fruit in Our Hands. The Lord has given His life to the trees and vines of His creation.

8 His wordcan increase or decrease the fruit of the land. If men would open their understanding to discern the relation between nature andnature s God, faithful acknowledgments of the Creator s power would be heard. Without the life of God, nature would die. Hiscreative works are dependent on Him. He bestows life-giving properties on all that nature produces. We are to regard the treesladen with fruit as the gift of God, just as much as though He placed the fruit in our hands (MS 114, 1899).Chapter 22 (Exodus 20:8-11). Seven Literal Days. The weekly cycle of seven literal days, six for labor, and the seventh for rest,which has been preserved and brought down through Bible history, originated in the great fact of the first seven days (SpiritualGifts3:90).

9 7 (1 Corinthians 3:9; Acts 17:28). Man Under God s Supervision. The physical organism of man is under thesupervision of God; but it is not like a clock, which is set in operation, and must go of itself. The heart beats, pulse succeedspulse, breath succeeds breath, but the entire being is under the supervision of God. Ye are God s husbandry, ye are God sbuilding. In God we live and move and have our being. Each heart-beat, each breath, is the inspiration of Him who breathedinto the nostrils of Adam the breath of life, the inspiration of the ever-present God, the Great I AM (The Review and Herald,November 8, 1898).

10 (2 Peter 1:4). Partakers of God s1081 Nature. The Lord created man out of the dust of the earth. He made Adam a partaker of His life, His nature. There wasbreathed into him the breath of the Almighty, and he became a living soul. Adam was perfect in form strong, comely, pure,bearing the image of his Maker (MS 102, 1903).Physical Power Long Preserved. Man came from the hand of his Creator perfect in organization and beautiful in fact that he has for six thousand years withstood the ever-increasing weight of disease and crime is conclusive proof of thepower of endurance with which he was first endowed (Christian Temperance and Bible Hygiene, 7).
