Yet, although God claims all souls for His own, millions of heathen have passed away in the past, and millions are passing away now, who never heard the Saviour's name. His is the only name whereby men can be saved; but His name is "Wonderful," and those who could not be saved through that name on this side of death may be saved through it on the other side. Death is but the passage of the soul from one world to another. God reigns in both; and His tender mercy is over all His works. The same principle applies to incorrigible backsliders. There have been men who were most eminent in Christian grace, who lapsed into backsliding of the lowest type, and even denied the Lord that bought them. They showed no sign of being reclaimed in this life. Will they not be reclaimed in the next? There is nothing to hinder, but it may require a long and terribly severe discipline. But we believe divine love will ultimately triumph. It helps us to understand how the most abandoned may be reclaimed if we remember the case of Saul of Tarsus. It does seem that Christ can overcome the most inveterate opposition without interfering in the least with a man's freedom. We believe this is the prerogative of Deity alone. Our free will is a glorious heritage; but we have to beware of unduly exalting it. God is greater than even man's free will. If Christ in a moment could break down Saul's opposition, and yet leave him a free man, we cannot conceive of any offender too malignant for Him to subdue. But how it is done is a mystery. It seems to be one of those things that are past finding out. At all events, we can believe that the most incorrigible will be reclaimed when we have the revelation that Jesus died for all mankind. It is said that He gave Himself a "ransom for all." It is declared that He tasted death "for every man." Now if He tasted death for every man, can we believe that He will not somehow and somewhere reclaim every man? If He does not do so in this life, will He not do so in the next. Again; it is said that "He shall be satisfied." Will anything less satisfy Him than the salvation of all for whom He died? His influence is not limited to this world. All worlds are under His control. There may be good reasons why some are saved in this life, and others in the next. I will glance at this point immediately. Meantime let us remember that His love and power are unchangeable, and that He is Lord in the world beyond, as well as here. What will not such conditions accomplish?
