REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Thirty - Endurance for the Holy Ones - Continue

 Some have viewed the mention here of fire and sulfur ("fire and brimstone," King James Version) as proof of the existence of a hellfire.  But a bried look at a similiar prophecy shows the real import of these words in this context. Back in the days of Isaiah, Jehovah warned the nation of Edom that they would be punished because of their enmity  toward Israel. He said: "Her torrents must be changed into pitch, and her dust into sulfur, and her land must become as burning pitch. By night or by day  it will not be extinguished; to time indefinite its smoke will keep ascending. From generation to generation she will be parched,  forever and ever no one will ber passing across her." - ISAIAH 34:9, 10.
