Yet it is a very plain and elementary truth, that the life, the fortune, and the happiness of every one of us, and, more or less those who are connected with us, do depend on our knowing something of the rules of a game infinitely more difficult and complicated than chess. It is a game which has been played for untold ages, every man and woman of us being one of the two players in game of his or her own. The chess board is the world, the pieces are the phenomena the universe, the rules of the game are what we call the laws of nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us. We know that his play is always fair, just and patient. But also we know, to our cost, that he never overlooks a mistake, or makes the smallest allowance of ignorance. To the man who plays well the highest stakes are paid, with that sort of overflowing generosity with which the strong shows delight in strength. And the one who plays ill is checkmated----without haste, but without remorse.
God is not a hypothesis to be explained, but an experience to be declared. I believe not only that God exists, but that he is the inspector of a life which we do not create, but which is given. Nature is not God; nature is not the image of God, man is the image of God. Would you know God ? Look into your own heart; God dwells within you. Your sense of justice administering law, your spirit of compassion administering mercy, your loving self sacrifice inspiring you fathers and mothers to give your lives for your children ----these are the interpreters of God. God is spirit; you are spirit; you are God's offspring; you and he are kin.

The references of the Bible are for the purpose of giving warning and inspiring hope. They are addressed to the imagination, not to the intellect. The object is not to give us instruction in the geography of another world, but to supply us with motive and conduct in this world. 🌎 The vagueness therefore, is not only unavoidable, it is also desirable. It would not be to our advantage but to our disadvantage to have accurate knowledge respecting either heaven or hell.
