had not intended to say anything on that
momentous subject-Hell but as bible Stu
dent" in your issue Of March Let SCENE or pro-
fesses to know the cause Of all the discussion
about hell, would like to disabuse him OF that
error that the doctrine OF the immortality OF
the soul is unscriptural and therefore the cause
of this discussion deny.
FIRST man is OF dual nature called in Eph.
3:16, the inner man. That inner man is con-
sclous, and in other places called soul and
spirit, as in Job 1922 But there IS a spirit
in man and the inspiration of the Almighty
giveth them understanding Job 1913. This
spirit or soul returns again to God who gave it
at death.-Ec. 1877. Hence man is possessed
with immortality.
Second, had we the Scriptures intact not this
garbled, uninspired translation Of King james,
there would not be this discussion on hell and
infant damnation, etc. We have not got to 60
to the Old Testament for proof that some OF
the Scripture We are deprived of. In Cor. $50

prophecy OF Enoch, Jude, IA? Although there
are many books spoken of In the Old Testa-
ment that are gone, yet il . Bible Student" will
furnish me with those books and epistles will
guarantee TO show him more positive proof
that man possesses immortality, and also show
him that God is not such being as to create
but to destroy. II the doctrine of he'll and
