opportunity of learning, in the world
of the disembodied, the saving truth
which in the flesh had never saluted
their ears.
THE GOSPEL is BEING PREACH
ED TO THE DEAD. Missionary serv-
! ice in the spirit world has been in
progress since its inauguration by the
disembodied Christ while His crucifed
body lay in the tomb. John 5:25).
Christ's promise from the cross to
the penitent thief dying by His side,
that the man should that day be in
paradise with the Lord, tells us where
the Savior's spirit went and minister

and resurrection. Paradise is not
heaven, il by that name we mean the
! abode of God and the place of the
supremely blessed: for in the early
light of the resurrection Sunday the
Risen Lord decisively affirmed that He
had not then ascended to His Father
