Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Our Celestial Home: An Astronomer's View of Heaven
Professor Drummond in his grand work, Natural Law in the Spiritual World, seems to entertain similar views. He well says that eternal life is not merely existence prolonged forever: it is to know God, to have com munion with Him. This is the correspond ence which will never break, with the environ ment which is truly eternal. But, according to Professor Drummond, this is the only cor respondence that possesses everlastingness; all other correspondences are temporal, they belong to time and to this present world. They are in their nature unfitted for an eternal life. These lower correspondences with the material environment must, in some way, be unloosed and dissociated from the higher elements; and this is effected by a closing catastrophe - Death.
