<TITLE>11. Par -</TITLE>L-274-396 So it had to take One that was not guilty to do it. And the only One that wasn't guilty was God Himself. And God had to come down and become man. And He came in the form of Christ to anchor the stinger of death, to take the sting of death out, to redeem us, that we, not by our works or by our goodness (we have none), but by His grace to be saved. Then we receive of His Life into this mortal body, and now we are sons and daughters of God, and have Eternal Life within us. We are sons and daughters of God. Therefore, Jesus, being alive...
And no man, no matter how wicked or how good, when he has to... When he leaves this earth, he's not dead. He's somewhere else. But he has a life that will perish after he's punished in hell for his deeds. But yet that life has to cease. There's only one type of Eternal life.

L-275-398 Now, we've been through that. If a man can be a sinner and be punished forever... He can't be punished forever 'less he's got Eternal Life. If he's got Eternal Life, he's saved. See? So there's only one type of Eternal Life, and that's the Zoe, the Life of God. And he can't perish.
But the wicked are in a place of--of waiting in torment for their judgment, to be judged according to the deeds done in the body at the last day. Now, but we... Some men's sins go before them, some follow after them.
Now, if we confess our sins, He's just to forgive us; therefore, we'll never have to stand the judgment of God. You get it? Look, Romans 8:1: "There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus (that are in Christ, that's passed from death unto Life. See? We have no condemnation. And was in Christ Jesus), that walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." See? "He that heareth My Words, believeth on Him that sent Me, has Eternal Life."

L-275-401 And if I've been accepted in Christ, and Christ took my judgment, and I accepted His propitiation for my sins, how can God judge me? He's done judged me when He judged Christ. Then I'm free from judgment. "Then when I see the Blood, I'll pass over you." See?
But now, the wicked is not so. He goes into a place of torment. And we know that that's true. The wicked is alive. He's in a place of torment. He's in a place where he don't know... That's how these spiritualists and mediums call up these spirits of the people that's gone on, some kind of frolic and dirty jokes and things they crack, if you've ever seen any of it. All right. Why? They don't...

L-275-403 Look at this Miss Pepper, before my article went of "The Miracle of Donny Morton." How many read that article? Yes, many of you did, sure. And it's in "Reader's Digest." Did you notice, just before that went forth Miss Pepper, the greatest spiritualist the world has ever knowed: twelve pages given to her story. And for fifty years... They've had her all over the world, and scientific proof and everything, that she absolutely talks with the dead, and the people come up. What? God's Name wasn't mentioned one time, no repentance, no Divine healing, nothing about it. See?
Only thing it was, was those people mentioned, "John, don't you know me? I'm George that was at a certain place, and I did so-and-so and so-and-so. You remember that place we went and done this?" See, that's all they know. They're gone, passed from... They're--they're nothing left but judgment.
