II just as much believe in material hell
and material fire as believe in anything

Halsey W. Knapp to an immense congrega-
ton last night, "for it is easier to believe
exactly what Christ said than to find other
things that He meant. would never have
known of he'll if Christ had not told me
of It," Rev. Mr.. Knapp is a preacher who

in which people would recognize their earth

is sentiment in this age which would sac.

Of heaven is to be everlasting, then, in Mr.
Knapp's opinion, the punishment OF hell
must be everlasting also. Mr.. Knapp never
heard the theory advanced by any one who
believed in a hereafter that the glory Of
heaven would be temporary.

In entering upon the New Year it affords Ia
pleasure to extend to my many old and true
friends its cherry greetings, and wish them peaca
plenty and prosperity during its passing days,
There IS nothing more pleasant than to fight our
battles DER again, and to recount the evidences
of friendship which marked the varying incidents
and events OF the checkered life we have lived
We drop tear over the departure to the shadowy
realms OF some noble soul, leaving a vacuum in
community difficult to fill; and give smile at
the remembrance of hearts made glad by two
congenial spirits united, to battle together lifes
tempests and crosses. We read in these but s
photograph of the future. We will pass to that
bourne whence no traveller returns ana be Civ
en- in marriage, Just as those who have gone he

And this reminds that We must be up ana
doing while it is called day. and make provisions
for the wants of the times in which we live To

shown that punishment is eternal, then
there must be place or condition, OF both,
OF such punishment. Christ teaches us in
the future life fall upon persons. The main
question is: Are these sufferings endless in
duration? The Word Of God alone can de-
eide this question. We have simply to learn
what the Bible teaches, and accept it, say
ing, Gwen so, Father, for so it seeule.h
good in Thy sight, Christians in all ages,
with marvellous unanimity, have foundthis
doctrine in the Bible. The great majority
of the Jews in Christ's day believed it, and
neither He nor His apostles contradicted or
corrected them. Did Christ sanction error !?
Who will dare say so? III tie doctrine
taught by the text be not true, in what other
way shall we dispose OF the soul: Is it an
initiated. Annihilaton is the vain hope OF
men consciously wicked, and therefore fear
full. 1t is weak and cowarGly. No salts
factory evidence for its support can be
found In the word of God. Can God ami
hilate souls He has degraded but not an

and in men is a part of divinity. Can God
annihlate Himself? A belief in this doc.
trine degrades the whole scheme of redemp-
ton. Would God give His only begotten
Son to the shame and agony of the cross
merely to save men from humiliation If
humiliation were the end, the Cross of Cal.
vary was stupendous blunder. Docs Sc
cond probation help the matter. What in
ducements could God offer to men then to
repent which He does not offer now? God
has already exhausted Himself. Is hell
more mighty to save than the Cross of Cal
vary? Punishment is not in itself reforma-
tory. God does not always inflict it to re-
form men. Sin is not always its own full
punishment; Gods goodness is not opposed
to the doctrine of the text. 1t is claimed
that the word everlasting is sometimes
used with meaning of limited duration.
We grant it. But when it is applied to
limited duration, it is still a period whose
limit is not known. 1t is, therefore, practi-
caly, limitless duration. The doctrine is
taught in all those passages which tell us
there is no forgiveness, no repentance, nc
change of state. If you close hell you must
also close heaven. Grant, if you will, that
period comes when the wicked may com c
forth from hell and enter heaven. Even so
; why should men prefer to reach heaven by
tina: method? Better 60 by the way of the
cross Let this be understood: God SENDS
no man to perdition. Mr.. Beccher put VI
man of straw. he attacked him vigorous
ly; he trampled upon him triumphantly
but, after all, he was only man of straw
God offers life men choose death Every
man will go where in his deepest nature he
: desires to go. There is no heaven anywhere
for man who hates God. There is no he'll
anywhere for a man who loves the Lore
Jesus. Pardon is offered to all. Jesus in
vites. Why will We die? To-day accept thu
offering of his mercy, and at the last yor
shall share in His glory.
