From Eternity Past
So confessions will be made by the guilty when they stand before
the bar of God, after every case has been decided for life or death.
An acknowledgment of sin will be forced from the soul by an awful
sense of condemnation and a fearful looking for of judgment. But such
confessions cannot save the sinner.
When the records of heaven shall be opened, the Judge will not de-
clare to man his guilt, but will cast one penetrating, convicting glance,
and every deed, every transaction of life, will be vividly impressed
upon the memory of the wrongdoer. The sins hidden from men will
then be proclaimed to the whole world.
