27  And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which am but ^adust and ashes:

  17  Who shall say that it was not a miracle that by his word the heaven and the earth should be; and by the power of his word man was created of the ^cdust of the earth; and by the power of his word have miracles been wrought?

  12  Q. What are we to understand by the sounding of the trumpets, mentioned in the 8th chapter of Revelation?

A. We are to understand that as God made the world in six days, and on the seventh day he finished his work, and sanctified it, and also formed man out of the ^ddust of the earth, even so, in the beginning of the seventh thousand years will the Lord God sanctify the earth, and complete the salvation of man, and judge all things, and shall redeem all things, except that which he hath not put into his power, when he shall have sealed all things, unto the end of all things; and the sounding of the trumpets of the seven angels are the preparing and finishing of his work, in the beginning of the seventh thousand years—the preparing of the way before the time of his coming.

  35  The ^aelements are the tabernacle of God; yea, man is the tabernacle of God, even temples; and whatsoever temple is defiled, God shall destroy that temple.
