The Bible constantly uses physical figures for spiritual truth, for we must liken the un-
seen and the unheard to the things we see and hear. Religion has to do witfc the things
that "eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard, neither hath entered into the heart of man"(
to .understand. So ihe figures for the future of the good and of the evil are taken from the
physical realm with which we are familiar. Harps in our hands and walking on golden
streets are metaphors for the high privileges that await the servants of God in heaven.
Likewise the pit and sulphurous fumes and heat that is "SEVEN TIMES HOTTER" are
figures that represent the spiritually intolerable situation in which the wicked shall find
themselves in the future life. None of these material figures, not even the molten metal
blast furnace scene above, is strong enough to convey the actual situation to be confronted.
Think of the two ideas that are conveyed partially in our concept of hell: absence from the
presence of God and the remorseful memory of an awakened soul, who has finally come to
understand the enormity of the evil which he had committed. To be without God and with-
out hope is the most terrible fate that can befall any man. Do you remember Edward
Everatt Hale's story of THE MAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY? That will suggest some-
thing of the almost unendurable plight of a human soul who has lost all sense of the
Divine; no good thing to live for, no dependable order in the universe, no guide to affairs
anywhere, a topsy turvy world without sense or rhyme. The mental suffering of such a
soul far surpasses anything the human mind can conceive. Then think of the remorse
of a man who has finally come to see the far reach of the wicked thing he has done, never
to be able to forget, nor to turn his eyes away from the horrible results of his wrong doing.
Such is the 'Christian Hell', not something God purposes for any man, but a fate from which
the loving God has sought by every means within His power to save us. Surely no think-
ing person will purpose such a future for himself; God will do His best to save us from it;
but man is finally the captain of his soul; and even God cannot save a man from himself
and his own future that he chooses; only we ourselves can do that.
