HELL AND IT'S ARAcrERIsrIcs-sERMoN By
REV. JOHN JOHNS
The Rev. John Johns, pastor OF the FREQ Taber-
nacle Methodist Episcopal Church, preached yester-
day on "heli and Its Characteristic" he took for
his text ~. Luke XVI, 10, 81. He'll he said, as de-
scribed In the Gospel, Is . place OF torment tbs
view OF hell II emphasized In the Gospel OF the day.
When the rich in hell lifted up his eyes,
beng In tormerts, and saw Abraham afar on and
Lazarus In his bosom, Dried out to have mercy on
him and to send Lazarus that might dip the tap Of
his finger IN water and cool his tongue; for ne was
tormeated IN the damca Hence the sense OF sight Is
a source OF torment to the damned. The sight Of
Abraham 10 the ricn man Ia hell intonsined his tor
ments, the contrast OF his past and present condi
ton again presented TO his mind AS soon as we
die our reward or punishment Is meted out by just
but mercitul Creator We are doomed 10 happiness
heavon woe in hell The rich man, who lived a life
Of ease and pleasure, who was clothed purple and
fine ltnen who Knocked God and INDUCED his animal
propenstes rich and respected IN this life; died
and was buried in hell Lazarus, on the other
hand, was q beggar, "ful OF sores" who sat az the
gates OF tho rich man. desiring to be fed with the
crumbs which fell from the rich mans table; he died
and his soul found eternal resting place 10 the bosom
OF Abraham. The rich man cried out to Abraham, -
pray thee therefore, Father Abraham that nou woudst
send him TO my fathcr's house. tor have i've breth-
rcn, that he may testify TO them lest they also como
inIo this place OF torment" thus showing that tho
damned not wish that others should share their
sunerings. The misery winch they endure seeks not
soace in company. Tear out memory and half oil hell
would be gone at Another characteristic OF hell
is that damned IN some way recognize the Saviour
There is not soul in hell who wishes TO SEQ another
The wall OF the lost souls would bescech you
to flee from the wrath 10 como.
"Remember," said the preacher, 'that excitement
Is conversion. You must believe or be damned.
Ii you not saved by this Bible and by this Gospel
aud by this Jesus you will never De saved' The rich
supplicatcd Abraham to testify unto his dvc
lest they also should into this place OF
torment, and Abraham said unto him, 'they have
Moses and the prophets; let them hoar them." The
rich man, concerned for the souls OF his brethren,
unto tnem from the dead they will repent at they
hear not Moses and the prophets, neither Will they
be persuaded though rose from the dead was tn
final reply OF Abraham to the opportunities 0i the
rich man. In conclusion tho preacher urged his
hearers conform their lives to the inspired teaching
Of the Scriptures and thereby ''escape that death
which never, never dies "
