N. J.. April 27. - PaKtor KuxMell preached iu i tbe Opera Home tbls after noon. Ills text was: "The Mor rows of d e a t b compassed me. and tbe piilnn of bell gat bold npon me." Psalm 110:3. The Pastor dec-lured tbut bis text, like many other Bible statements. Is so grievously misunderstood as to prevent Christian progress. Many no ble bearta. be claimed, are famishing for lack of refreshment of Ood's Truth. Tbe channels of thought are blocked by fossilized errors of tbe Dark Ages. Tbe ports of our hearts should be deep ened and widened by the blowing up of tbe false and devilish hell doctrines'. which binder ua from receiving spirit ual nourishment . There exists "a fam ine for beating the Word of God." If tbls text were tbe only one mis- tranKlnted and misunderstood, be said, the ordinary reader would doubtless pass It by as a figure of speech. But It la merely one of a combination of mistranslation, all of which are con nected with an eternal torment sys tem of doctrines Invented during the Dark Ages. This power of error Is turning Intelligent minds away from the Bible. Hence It la our duty to brenk down these false doctrines, 'and to Hear away whatever hinders tbe flow of Truth to God's people. The Psalmist is merely telling of bis severe Illness, from wblcb bv tbe gnrcqrl of (iod he recovered. He would have It understood tbat It whs not merely a slight ailment. neiice be described It as "the sorrows of death" tbat Is. the sadness associated with the thought that he was shout to die. about to leave his friends. . In poetic nebrew. ne repeat tbe thought In the next statement-"the pain of hell gat bold upon me." They were the pains of ap proaching dissolution. There Is not the slightest reference to the future. Why Not the Whole Truth. In their revised translation of tbe Bible, our Baptist friends use tbe ex pression, "the underworld." Instead of bell. Yet even here Is danger that tbe average render muy not catch the true thought. Kar simpler and wiser it would tie bad tbe translator said, "tbe pains of the toinh." Every learned minister knows tbat the Redrew word Sbeol really means the grave, tbe pit. tbe state of death. Why do they hesitate to teil tbe people,? Why do they translate It sometimes Ihr urure. and other times the under trnrlilt Why do they use the trausla tloii. the grare. In one place, the pit its another, and then reuw to translate It n a third place, giving Instead tbe '.ctnal word Sbeol? Was It their In tention to confuse the people? What is the motive? We wlsb that some of these great men would explain. The Reason For All This. We would like to have our minis terial liretbren state their reasous for hiding the truth on tbe subject of bell Only because they decline to do so. do ve feel at liberty to make suggestions. These ministers seem to ne of two elnsses. with slightly different reasons for Niiem-e on tins suojeet. 'I bey seem to ngree tbnt It Is dangerous to tell tbe lieople that ;kI Is really a God of love, mill thHt the doctrine of eternal tor ment Is iinsrrlptiirnl. promulgated dur ing the lark Ages hy men who burn si one another at tbe stake. The. Pastor declared that one class of ministers seem to fear that If peo ple saw the errors of the creeds, they would discredit tbe ministers who had tnught these dvtrlnes But why fear to tell the truth) Perhaps they fear th.it lieople will lne confidence In their teaching, and that the party walls of Christendom, whleb bnve so long di vided (.iid's people, will full. Klncethcy will pot tell us. we ran only surmise. Other ministers, he said, have become higher critics, and do not believe the Bible They prefer to pose as beller- p. n'l hope for the time wheo all the wra'thv com lielievenvaiKo.
