EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE VIEW “Everlasting punishment” was the Subject of the lesson-sermon in First Church of Christ, Scientist, Auckland, yesterday. The golden text was from Ecclesiastes 12: 14, “God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it he evil.” Among the citations was the following from the Bible: “Be not deceived: God Is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption: but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” The lesson-sermon also included the following passage from the Christian Science Textbook: “Science and Health, with the Key to the Scriptures”: “Evil is sometimes a man’s highest conception of right, until his grasp on good grows stronger. Then he loses pleasure iu wickedness, and jt becomes his torment. The way to escape the misery of sin is to cease sinning. There is no other way. Sin js the image of the beast to be effaced by the sweat of agony.”
