• catalog description "1. Does death end all? -- Immortality a universal belief -- Found not only among cultured nations, but all the world around, among all peoples from the world's earliest morning -- This feeling that there is a hereafter the counterpart of reality -- Man is the only creature having this religious instinct, therefore immortality must be the end to which it leads -- When death comes it brings to all men conscious assurance of immortality -- Man's restless spirit, proof of immortality -- Man alone carries with him a heavy heart -- Immortality the only satisfactory explanation -- The soul immaterial, therefore immortal -- The future life necessary to vindicate God's character -- The indestructibility of matter -- Immortality's influence on conduct -- The one nation and only one that ever tried to destroy a belief in God and immortality -- A future life needed for the working out of that moral completeness which the present never brings -- The love that lightens life acts instinctively on the hypothesis of eternity -- 2. What has the old testament to say upon the life beyond? -- The Bible finds us as nothing else -- Immortality an ever present underlying fact which runs like a golden thread from Genesis to Revelation".
• catalog description "4. Light after darkness -- Man's earthly life a checkered scene -- What men call death is simply a change -- The shower as necessary as the sunshine -- Only after storm can we fittingly relish the calm -- Affliction no respecter of persons -- Your cross no heaver that that of others -- Sorrow rounds out and perfects life -- Jacob and Paul contrasted -- How the latter's faith took hold of things through the eyes of the spirit, while Jacob failed to see the divine plan, that in the end, seemingly the worst, was for his best -- Your trust in God keeps you from sinking -- No afflicted believer has ever gone in the dark hour to his Saviour for support and been disappointed -- The deepest happiness is not that which has never been suffered -- The sweetest songs of earth have been sung in sorrow -- Keep your hold on God, come what may -- Keep toiling on for the others' sake -- 5.

• catalog description "6. The soul between death and resurrection -- The scriptural expressions which strengthen the belief that the souls of men do not in the period which intervenes between their separation from the body and the general resurrection sink into a condition of lifeless torpor, but are conveyed to some abode and retain their active powers, at no distant period, but on the very day of death are conveyed to heaven -- No intermediate place but an intermediate state -- The full apocalypse of God is not given, but for every believer's soul there is immediate bliss, but in a disembodied state and, therefore, intermediate -- No purgatory in the early christian church -- Absent from the body and present with the Lord -- The meaning of sleep in all languages -- Death the gate of life -- There is a judgment when a man dies, but a still further judgment on the last great day when a public decision shall be made -- The balance swings unevenly here, but these inequalities we now behold will then be balanced to an unerring nicety -- Then it will appear as it never could have done here that God is both a God of justice and goodness".
• catalog description "7. Our children in heaven -- To none do our hearts go out in greater longing than to the little ones who have gone before -- Every object associated with them is sacred -- The future estate of the children a subject of deep anxiety to many -- Unreasonable and unscriptural views which have been taught -- The little ones gain rest without conquest -- The superstitions regarding infant baptism -- Baptism does not impart a new heart -- Enlightened christianity coming to an united belief that baptism does not insure regeneration and, therefore, all infants are saved -- The children whom God has taken away are our permanent possessions -- The invisible children become the dearest children -- How the child's death brings new blessings to the home -- When christian faith rules the life, the child, though brief the stay, will not come in vain -- 8. Our heavenly home -- Glimpses of the coming world -- Descriptions of heaven are figurative, yet they serve to give us some knowledge of our heavenly home -- All that heaven means is beyond our finite comprehension".
• catalog description "From the very first page of the pentateuch immortality of the soul was a principle well known and fully understood -- How the Old Testament draws the distinction between the spirit and the flesh -- The old Jews who lived together in life, wished to live together in death, as they hoped to rise together in everlasting habitations -- Ancient hebrews regarded life as a journey, as a pilgrimage -- The practice of magical invocations of the dead, positive proof of the popular belief in continued existence of the departed -- David's deep convictions of immortality -- Job's clear convictions -- Solomon acknowledged the dualism of man's nature -- The distinct utterance of Daniel -- The Talmud on immortality -- Proof positive that knowledge of immortality is older than the gospel -- Christ lifted the old conception out of probability into the realm of assurance -- 3. A comforting belief -- Belief that death ends all would make the present existence a nightmare of horror -- Immortality alone amid life's pains can comfort the soul -- The happiness derived from our faith in immortality is in proportion to the strength and determination we call forth to live the immortal life here -- Faith must ever burn with incandescent glow -- Too many hold the solemn verities of the hereafter in a sort of half consciousness -- There must be faith in Christ as the Redeemer before we can feel the power of immortality -- Your light affliction works for you a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory -- The night of death, the dawn of a clearer day -- Immortality essential to every hope inspired by religion -- Man too great to be cabined, cribbed, and confined by earth's narrow limits -- Take away the hope inspired by faith in immortality and naught would remain to make life worth living -- No time when the consoling powers of the truth of immortality come with such comfort as in the time of death".

What shall we do in heaven? -- Man never reaches a conclusion here -- He dies when he gets ready to live -- When the trammels of the body are thrown off, the spirit unloosed will find full opportunity to realize its aspiration in a better sphere -- Yonder we shall round out the life and attain our ambitions -- Examples of great intellects who expressed their desire for another life that they might realize their ideals -- Heaven is not a place of idleness, and psalm singing merely -- What the heavenly rest means -- Scripture symbols which signify that heaven will be a place of endless enterprise and boundless progress".
