Hell and Everlasting Punishment

THE contents of this booklet were first published in a series of articles in The Gospel Trumpet, but the great demand for a more general distribution of the truth contained therein has led me to send it forth in its present form. Several so-called religious publishing-houses are sending forth books and tracts by the thousands, trying to overthrow the doctrine of everlasting punishment. It is actually surprising to see the multitudes that readily grasp such teaching; and once the fears of hell are cooled in their bosoms, many give vent to unbridled lust and thus plunge their souls farther down towards the realms of woe. Convince a man that he will simply be blotted out of existence, pass into eternal unconsciousness, into oblivion, and thus be freed from the sense of eternal misery, and in most cases he prefers a life in the pleasures of sin.
