SPECIAL TEXT: "The Scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, the earth and all things that are upon the face of it; yea, and its motion; yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form [order], do witness that there is a Supreme Creator." Alma, Ch. xxx. NOTES. Owing to the volume of information supplied in Part I— Ten Lessons — on the various subdivisions of this lesson, it is not thought necessary to add more notes here. *It is suggested that this lesson be made simply a review of Part I, and that two sessions of the class could be profitably used for this purpose.
