all be changed pretty soon. When
the curse is removed from man it
will also be removed from the
ground and all the material
world. Let us get this idea
straight: Christ came to RE-
STORE all that was lost in
Adams fall, and that will include
he restoration Of that perfect
Paradise here@on earth. Adam
didn't lose any far-away heaven
and hence no far-away heaven
will be RESTORED. The whole
business is limited strictly to this
very earth that we live on. There
will be just this difference be-
tween the Paradise that was lost
and the one that will be restored
The beginning of the human race
was very small, and SO a small
Paradise Ia Garden1 was all they
needed. But now the race has
multiplied and filed the whole
earth, and so the restored Para
disc will be just that much big
ger it will cover the entire
earth.
That will be all the heaven we
will need, and all that God ever
int nded that we should have.
Fhose who wouldn't be satisfied
with that wouldn't be satisfied
with any other kind Of heaven
that God make, and the only
thing that He can do with such
people will be to utterly wipe
them out of existence. And that's
what He will do.

Your argument in your Sept.

might have strengthened it-yea,
you might have positively proved

How Long Will the Wicked

the 'seven times more began

See 2 Chron. 1922. And from

ginning Of this time-to Zede-
kiah's overthrow was 800 literal

Yes, this time of testing and

And while these better things are

Going Up"

good people 60 UP to heaven
when they die. 1t is a most rid
aculous idea. when you stop to
consider that out in the boundless
space of the universe there is no
10 nor Down. AWAY from the
center of the earth is UP, and
TOWARD the center of the earth
sas DOWN, and that's all there is
to it. The sense of up and down
that we have is due entirely to
the force Of gravitation and if
We could leave the earth and take
up our abode on the planet Mars
for instance, we could look back
toward the the earth and it would
be just a bright star in the hea-
vens, and it would look like it
was UP.
Suppose two good men die at
exactly the same moment, one
here in the United States, and
the other in China. They both
start to heaven. The American
saint will go UP from this side of
the earth, and the Chinese saint
will GO UP from the other side of
the earth, and they will be going
in exactly opposite directions.
The farther they go the farther
apart they will get. At that rate,
when will they get together? And
yet we are asked to believe that
they both started to the same
heaven. It is so ridiculous as to
Sbe almost amusing.
A great many of these foolish
beliefs are due to pure un-adul-
terated il ignorance. II people would
only stop and think a little, they
would soon see how impossible
sorne of their beliefs are.
OF course there must be a
place somewhere out in space
where God has His headquarters.
Whether or not there is any ma
terial City CT Throne or anything
else that would be visible to our
human e, e-sight is a difficult
question. But wherever or what
lever that heaven is, it is not UP
any more than DOWN. It is
merely OUT FROM the earth.
And, furthermore, it is my hon.
est opinion that the saved people
of this earth will never go to that
heaven. When God made man and
placed him here on earth, He pla-
ced him in a perfect Paradise,
which was later lost through sin.
The curse fell not only upon man,
but upon the whole creation. In
Genesis 3:17 God says to Adam:
4'Cursed is the GROUND for thy
sake; Ina sorrow shalt thou eat of it al
the days of thy life."
So we see that the very ground
lis under the curse, and that's
why weeds and briars, thorn:
and thistles, grow so much more
easily than corn and wheat.
