The eternity of God, and heaven, and hell

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

(J. C. Ryle)

"And just as each person is appointed to die once--and after that comes judgment!" Hebrews 9:27

"And they will go away into eternal punishment; but the righteous will go into eternal life." Matthew 25:46

The state of things after the judgment--is changeless and without end. The misery of the lost, and the blessedness of the saved--are both alike forever. Let no person deceive us on this point. It is clearly revealed in Scripture. The eternity of God, and heaven, and hell--all stand on the same foundation. As surely as God is eternal--so surely is heaven an endless day without night, and hell an endless night without day!
