the New view of hell, are seen and acknowledged, the practical value of this view will then be perceived and confessed.
For all who desire to rid themselves of the society of evil spirits, and to come internally into fellowship with the angels, will see the absolute necessity, not only of a good outward or moral life, but of cleansing "the inside of the cup and of the platter"—of acting from right motives—of making the love of use, or the desire to serve others from love to the Lord and the neighbor, their ruling principle of action. To this exalted state, therefore, will they aspire. For this they will long; for this they will labor: for this they will pray.
And fully conscious that they cannot attain to this state of right desire and feeling, as well as of right living, by their own unaided strength, they will be led to look beseechingly to, and humbly to acknowledge their dependence upon Him who hath all power in heaven and on earth; and who has said, "Without me, ye can do nothing."
