The Spirit of God as Fire; the Globe Within the Sun Our Heaven
Mortimore, D.
Heaven; Sun
We see wisdom displayed, and find law and order in every thing we
comprehend which pertains to God and Nature. Phenomena, which for long
ages were mysteries, are now, through the lights of science, being
fully comprehended and made plain to all. And, by reasoning from
analogy, new arts and sciences are comprehended, while each additional
light gained flashes upon some other hidden mystery, and reveals in it
nothing but _law_ and _order_, in all its arrangements.
The progress made of late in the arts and sciences is wonderful
indeed; yet this is only the progress of the mind of man, and the
enlightenment of his intellect. And we believe that the next decade of
years will develop _facts_ which might startle the minds of the wisest
of to-day to contemplate.
That vast world--surrounded by the Sun--controls this Earth and its
other surrounding planets. From that world, and Sun--in its
offices--we derive every blessing while on Earth, and we cannot doubt
but that when we find our future, IT WILL BE THERE. The righteous to
dwell _within_ where, we have shown you, the Sun does not or cannot
shine; but where the _glory of God_ is the light of the holy place,
and yet we have the evidence that one of the offices of the _Sun_ will
be the punishment of the wicked who cannot enter that HEAVENLY WORLD.
"_Whoso is wise will observe these things._" Psalms, cvii.
_WILL ALL TAKE HEED?_

Gentle reader, we are about to take our leave
of you. We have penned the lines which compose this volume at short
intervals obtained recently from a laborious professional life. Our
mind has been duly impressed with the correctness of the views we have
advanced. Indeed, to disbelieve them, would seem to disbelieve Divine
revelations, and let the mind become again shrouded with impenetrable
mystery in regard to the place of our future habitation, and of the
manner and mode of the spirit's transit thither after the death of the
body. All should remember that they will be held accountable for the
light and knowledge they receive.
We feel fully assured that our hypothesis as to the location of
Heaven--as also that of Hell--is well founded and fully sustained by
God's own revelations, both as recorded in the Bible, and as seen in
visible nature. As to the "Spirit of God as fire," we have presented
such evidence as Divine revelations have furnished us, and only added
to these such as _reason_, as the perceptive faculties of all, do or
may comprehend, and we do not see wherein the _Christian World_ can
found any objections to our conclusions.
