The people of heaven are continually advancing towards the spring-time
of life; and the more thousands of years they live, the more
delightful and happy is the spring to which they attain. Women who
have died old and worn out with age, and have lived in faith in the
Lord and in charity to the neighbor, come, with the succession of
years, more and more into the flower of youth and early womanhood, and
into a beauty exceeding every idea of beauty ever formed through the
sight. In a word, to grow old in heaven is to grow young.

HELL


"If I make my bed in hell; behold, Thou art there."

--_Psalm_, CXXXIX, 8


EVIL IS HELL

Evil with man is hell with him; for it is the same thing whether we
say evil or hell. And as a man is the cause of his own evil, therefore
he, and not the Lord, also leads himself into hell. So far is the Lord
from leading man into hell, that He delivers him from it as far as a
man does not will and love to be in his own evil.
