What did Les teach that eternal things are like?
Eternal things are without dimension, beyond human comprehension, and infinite. They cannot be fully grasped, comparable to the vastness of space and the size of stars. Believers receive God's own eternal life, which carries throughout all eternity, and what little can be comprehended is appropriated by faith.
Les teaches that eternal things are without dimension and beyond human comprehension. He says the eternal life of God Himself has become part and parcel of every believer and will carry throughout all eternity. He compares this incomprehensibility to the outer edges of space, saying it is beyond us and boggles the mind. He illustrates God's eternalness and infiniteness with the size of our sun—it would take a million, 300,000 earths to equal it—and the star Centaurus, which is vastly larger still. That, he says, is the infinite God and eternity, and that is where believers are headed. What little we can comprehend, we appropriate by faith, and it is not some kooky stuff dreamed up by a Jew by a tramp fire.
