This is the Truth contained in the belief of eternal
punishment; for it is eternally true that sin, or
ignorance, brings upon us its own results, and will
until all ignorance is destroyed. Later in our
study, we find what was the end of this move into
Egypt, and what is the result to us of the turning
of our thought into the visible as a source.
Again, in the words heard by Israel in his
"night visions," was this assurance --- "I will go
with thee into Egypt and I will bring thee up
again." What do we learn from these words if
they do not show Divine pleasure in the going to
Egypt? Simply a truth, namely, that God is
Omnipresent, always with us, even if we turn
from Him! There is no move we can make unaccompanied by Divine Presence. "If I make my
bed in hell, thou art there," does not teach us that
the Divine delights to have us go into torment. So
these words heard by Israel are not an encouragement for him to go down into Egypt, but an assurance that even though he choose to go away from
"Canaan," Divine Love is still with him. What
for? "I will bring thee up again."
