T. Everson last night In his lec ture at the armory. " ' It will be some fire, for we read in Iaiah 54:9 that the water will be turned Into pitch, and the very ground into pitch and brim stone. , ;, . . v ' . "How will the whole business be set afire? In Revelations 20:- 3 it says that God will send fire down from heaven which will start tha old world to burning. Now with. a fire 45 miles high rolling around the world, do you suppose that you could put it out? -- No wonder the Bible calls it an . un quenchable-fire.' Christ speaks of, this unquenchable fire. The word used in this text in the . original for hell would more properly be translated Gahenna, as in Wey mouth's translation of the New Testament, In this instance Christ t hell. . ' - . " rTheV hand, - that Christ, said should be cut off or the eye that should be plucked but meant soma sin that would be as hard to part with as a hand or an eye." He knew tha necessity of getting rid of that sin. For- if a -man hung on to It, hell ' was waiting; and there . was no possible way to aare a man out of the great fire that is just ahead If a man once got into it. Professor Everson will speak tonight on the subject of "The Greatest Question Asked in the History of Time." u " mm For Old and New Subscriptions to ' .
