Note 23 — ETERNAL PUNISHMENT
Reading edition
Has the reader ever pondered Jno. iii. 36? There is marvelous power in it. It completely demolishes two special heresies of the day, namely, universalism and annihilationism. It tells the universalist that "he that believeth not the Son shall not see life," and it tells the annihilationist that "the wrath of God abideth on" the unbeliever. If he "shall not see life," he cannot be restored; and if "the wrath of God abideth on him," he cannot be annihilated.
