Verse 15.— Lust hath conceived. First a begetting and then a bringing forth— that is, a birth. Lust is here personified. It is the begetter. Lust entices. Yielding to it is the conception, and the birth thereof is sin. Sin, when it is finished. Finished; that is, completed, run its course. Certainly a constant course of sin, repetition of sinful conduct and actions to the end of life's journey, forms a character fit only for but one end— destruction— hence it Bringeth forth death. Death eternal. "Depart from me, ye that worketh iniquity" (Matthew 7:23). Where do they go when they depart? Into outer darkness with the unprofitable servant. (Matthew 25:30.) And, lastly, we have the end given by our Lord himself: "Then shall he say unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, pre­pared for the devil and his angels." "These shall go away into everlasting punishment" (Matthew 25:41-46). The in­spired penman and the Lord Jesus have left us in no doubt about the death meant which is brought forth of sin. Let the world of intelligent creatures be informed and enabled to shun so fearful a calamity.
