He spoke to the 694 assembles at the Chest nut Street Auditorium on the sub ject, “What Does the Resurrection of the Dead Mean to You and Yours?” He said that the resurrection is a teaching unique to the Bible. No other books that are considered “holy” by large religious bodies teach the resurrection. He related that two types of resurrection are clearly outlined in the Bible, and explained that the first resurrec tion is to heavenly glory, and the after resurrection is for earthly life.
