DIVES in hell between us and you
there is a great. gulf fixed: so that

luke xvi.26.)
Hell as pictured in the Bible, there'
fore, is simply the eternal prison
house in which the rebellious and dis
obedient are incarcerated lest they
should corrupt and destroy the
beauty and glory of Gods moral
universe.
Some say: IL do not believe in any
literal hell or fire. ! believe that
Jesus was using figures OF speech IN
His reference to heil-fire." Very wen,
then. but do you not know that
figure of speech Is always weaker
than the thing symbolized by II!
Could any material torments be worse
than the moral totfures of an acuteiy
sharpened conscience in which, IKE

comes as it dwells upon misspent time
and misused talents, upon omitted
duties and committed sins. upon OPP.
portunfties lost both of doing ana OF
getting good, upon privileges neglect
ed and warnings rejected? The poet
Starkey stimulates our imagination In
the awful lines:

While Cecil puts this part OF the
matter in a nutshell when he writes:
Hell is the truth seen too late.
A moments clear thinking will con-
vince any reasonable mind that IL
is q. rational and necessary truth
which Jesus Christ proclaimed IN ms
teaching about hell. We believe that
crime ought to be punished ana that
there ought to be jails and peniten-
tia ries in this world. Shall we be SO
foolish. then, as TO think that God
Almighty ought to be less firm, less
| wise and less just than earthly rulers!
| And yet some go on day after gay
violating Gods laws, as Though they
| believed that they can easily get
away with it," How do they figure
| that out? DO they think that God
| is a fool and that they can put 1t
over on Him." or do they believe
| He is so weak that He cannot vindi-
cate His laws? One of these three
| things must be true of our thinking.
| Either God is fool, or He Is inn
moral, or lie Is weak, IL He has pro-
| vided no hell for violators of right
eous law! But He is neither of
these things. BE not deceived; God
| Is not moclled' And He has both
! the means and the power to attend
To vindicate His righteous law, He
must and will provide some place
where the ungodly so. Niolators OF
His holy laws must pay the penalty
| for their folly and sin. Certainly
Jesus Christ is trying to say to all
of this teaching that hell is an awful
reality, whatever It's exact condition
may be- and that for human soul
to be finally alienated from God anu
turned into hell is the supreme trag-
/ ,dy of the whole universe.
