THE Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering to us-ward, *not willing that any should perish*, but that all should come to repentance. _II Peter 3:9_ FOR God so loved the world, (me) that He *gave His only begotten Son*, that *whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life*. _John 3:16._ O THE *depth of the riches* both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! _Romans 11:33._ If you are lost at last, it will be because you *would not turn* from your sins and receive Christ. Listen to His warning! BE not deceived; God is not mocked: for *whatsoever* a man *soweth, that shall he also reap*. For he that soweth to his *flesh shall* of the flesh *reap corruption*; but he that soweth to the *Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting*. _Galatians 6:7-8._ *God damns* no one, man *damns himself*. Hell. *A real PLACE.* The word “hell” appears in the authorized version of the Bible 53 times. In the “revised version” the word is translated “hades" 11 times out of the 53. If there is a "heaven" for the saved, sure there must be a “hell” for the lost. The Bible speaks as clearly about one place as the other. The Scriptures show hell a *real place*. THE *wicked shall be turned into hell* and *all* the *nations* that *forget God*. _Psalms 9:17._ AND in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in (a summer resort? No.) *torments*. . . And he cried and said, . . . send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, *for I am tormented in this flame*. But Abraham said, son, remember. . . between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us that would come from thence. _Luke 16:23-26._ THE Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a *furnace of fire*: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. _Matthew 13:41-42._ AND whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into *the lake of fire*. _Revelation 20:15._ AND I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the *bottomless pit* and a great chain in his hand. _Revelation 20:1._ BUT thou, O God, shall bring them down into the *pit of destruction*.
