“ No more breath comes out of the mouth, no colour is seen on the cheeks; the eye can look at us no longer, nor the tongue speak to us; the body soon grows cold and stiff; it has no more feeling than the ground on which we tread. And why? Because the soul is gone out of the body. While the soul or spirit is in us we are alive, but when it is gone out then we are dead. ”

“ The soul can never die, but the body is only made of dust, and it soon crumbles away and becomes dust again.
No one can make a dead person alive again. Yet once there was a man in this world who made dead people alive. Who was that man? He was called Jesus; he was not only a man, he was God too; he was the Son of God. Most people would not believe that he was the Son of God, [Pg 3] though he said he was. Yet we are sure he said true, for if he had been a wicked man he could not have made dead people alive again. God his Father was with him, and this was the reason he did such wonderful things. ”

“ Some begin to be very useful; they can do more now than take care of the baby or run upon errands, and often they get places as servants. If they are steady, and tell no lies, they are trusted and get on well in the world. ”
