The Spirit of God as Fire; the Globe Within the Sun Our Heaven
Mortimore, D.
Heaven; Sun
There has always been antagonism between the "spirit of light" and the
"spirit of darkness." The first gives "light, life, and liberty." The
second, darkness, death, and bondage. The word and revelations of God
teach this fact, while the experience and heart admonitions of all
confirm it. Even the ungodly condemn wickedness, and yet, strange to
say, continue on in sin. There has, from the beginning, been spiritual
antagonism between the good and the bad, and a consciousness upon the
part of the wicked of their own wrong-doing. This has been the case
ever since wicked Cain slew his brother Abel; God then pronounced His
curse upon the perpetrator of that wicked deed, and His curse has
stood against all wicked doers from that time to the present, and
will through all time to come. Bible history is replete with evidences
of His judgments against them, and plainly tells us that there are two
separate places, one wherein the righteous shall enjoy happiness and
eternal life; the other wherein the wicked shall be punished, and
endure a living death that never dies, showing us plainly that,
"It is not all of life to live; nor yet of death to die."

Now, the _location_ of that place of torment will claim a few moments
of our attention. Of this we think we are _not_ left to conjecture
alone. We believe our hypothesis of the location of heaven is correct,
and that we have one equally certain of the location of _Hell_, and
that each hypothesis strongly corroborates the other.
First, let us take direct testimony; that given by the Son of God
himself, who is to be the judge of all--even the "quick" and the
"dead." The first are those quickened into life by the spirit, the
last are "those who are dead in trespasses and in sin."
You will find this evidence in the 16th chapter of the "Gospel
according to Saint Luke." Christ, the Son God, said,
