Throughout eternity the lost soul will be testifying to this truth: "God is holy; I was a sinner




 Hell is full of the Divine holiness!

(Winslow, "Holiness, the Fruit of the Chastening of Love") 

Hell is full of the Divine holiness; holiness 
in the manifestation of justice; holiness in 
its most glorious exercise. 

How fearfully are the lost now learning this truth! 

Think it not a trifling matter, unconverted reader, 
to look into the bottomless pit, and to know that 
there is but a step and you are there! You walk to 
the end of the treacherous plank, and you are gone! 

O solemn thought! but one step between you and 
the quenchless flame! but one step between you 
and endless torment! 

Throughout eternity the lost soul will be testifying 
to this truth: "God is holy; I was a sinner; I rejected 
His salvation, I turned my back upon His gospel, 
I despised His Son, I hated God Himself, I lived in 
my sins, I loved my sins, I died in my sins, and now 
I am lost! to all eternity lost! And God is righteous 
in my condemnation!"

- Octavius Winslow
