(1) The Scriptures declare that a clean thing cannot come out of an (Job 14:4) How does this agree with the declaration that our Lord was “holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners?” Page 97

(2) Is a knowledge of the manner in which God accomplished this bringing of a clean thing out of an unclean essential to true discipleship? In other words, is the philosophy of the Atonement indispensable to faith? Page 98, par. 1

(3) What is the Roman Catholic view of the “Immaculate Conception”? Does it apply to Jesus or to His mother? Page 98, par. 2

(4) If Jesus’ birth was out of the ordinary channel of affairs–a miracle–can it be said that there are other miracles in nature which are not so considered merely because they are more general? Page 98, par. 3

(5) Give illustrations of two substances in nature which act contrary to the ordinary so- called laws of Page 98, par. 3

(6) Does existence or living energy come from the father, or from the mother? Page 99, par. 1

(7) Does the body or form come from the father, or from the mother? Page 99, par. 1

(8) What is the significance of the word “father”? Page 99, par. 2

(9) Is it because of this principle, that the life or being comes from the father, and organism from the mother, that children are spoken of as being of or from their fathers and borne by their mothers? 24;47. Give several illustrations. Page 99, par. 3

(10) Does science agree with the Scriptures in this teaching as applied to humanity, and to all mammalia, that the life principle comes from the father, and the organism from the mother? Page 100, par. 2

(11) Give an illustration on this subject from the egg of a Page 100, par. 2, 3

(12) In view of these facts, could it be possible for a perfect child to be born of a perfect father, even if the mother were imperfect? Page 100, par. 4

(13) Why is it that “One man’s meat is another man’s poison”? Page 101, par. 1

(14) Applying this principle, could a perfect race have been born had mother Eve sinned and become imperfect, and father Adam remained sinless and perfect? Page101, par. 2

(15) Would the reverse of this have been true? That is, suppose that Adam had sinned and mother Eve had remained sinless and perfect, could the race thus have retained its perfection through the mother? Page 101, par. 3; Page 102, par. 1

(16) Does the Scripture, “Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean thing,” refer, then, to Adam or to Eve–to the male or to the female? Page 102, par. 2

(17) In what way may the mind of the mother affect her offspring before its birth, and how may the facts be seen to comport with the Scriptural declaration that our Lord Jesus was holy and separate from sinners while his mother was imperfect like the remainder of  the race? Page 102, par. 3

(18) What do we know in respect to Jesus’ mother-her character, attitude towards God, , that would authorize the conclusion that she was holy-minded and that her influence upon her child would correspond to this? Quote and cite the Scriptures. Page 102, par. 3

(19) Whence came the perfect life principle, which resulted in the birth of Jesus-“holy, harmless, undefiled”? Page 103, par. 1

(20) If life proceeds from the father and nature from the mother, of what nature was the “Man Christ Jesus”? Page 103, par. 2

(21) Is this same principle, that the mother gives nature, the father life, borne out by the record of 6:1-5? If so, how? Page 103, par. 3

(22) What would have become of Adam’s race had the fallen angels been permitted to continue the generation of a new race of humans, contrary to the Divine arrangement and organization? Page 104, par. 1

(23) Did that new race of mental and physical giants dominate and intimidate humanity, and is it probable that their continuance in power and authority would eventually have crushed out Adam’s race? Page 104, par. 1, 2

(24) How is the principle we have discussed, namely, life from the father and form from the mother, illustrated in nature, by the fact that God is the great Creator and Life-giver to angels of various grades, to man, to beasts and fowl and fishes? Page 104, par. 3

(25) The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ “bath begotten us as new ” Who was the mother in this case-mother of the New Creation? Page 104, par. 3

(26) What lesson can we draw from the fact that in the typical Jewish Age each child ranked in favor and standing according to the dignity and rank of its mother rather than its father? Page 105, par. 1

(27) Is or is not this same principle illustrated in the birth of our Lord Jesus? If it is, show how. Page 105, par. 2

(28) In harmony with the foregoing, show how our Lord Jesus was a clean thing–a pure and holy being, undefiled by Page 105, par. 2

(29) If our Lord Jesus is a New Creature, a spirit Being, and now highly exalted to the divine nature, and if it is declared that He will be Father and Life-Giver to humanity in its regeneration during the Millennium, what nature will the restored ones have–human or divine? Page 105, par. 3

(30) Show how this and related items are illustrated in the three wives of Abraham — Sarah, Hagar, and Keturah. Page 105, par. 3

(31) Shall we not conclude that our Lord’s birth was a miracle, wholly out of accord with Jehovah’s usual procedures, or was it in harmony? Page 106, par. 1

(32) How is this illustrated in Adam? Who was his father, and who his mother? Page 106, par. 1

(33) What is signified by the Apostle’s statement that such an one “became us”–how and why? Page 106, par. 1
