Excerpt from The Extent of Salvation: A Treatise Showing the Compatibility of a State of Punishment Beyond the Grave With Universal Salvation
The design of this volume is to show forth the consistency of scripture truth. Although it will be found to conflict with the va rious systems of theology generally received in our day, yet it is hoped, that this fact will not influence the judgment of the Church for or against its merits, until they have been carefully and prayer fully considered. One of the deadliest shafts of infidelity against the inspiration of the volume of Divine truth, is wielded under the assumption, that it contradicts itself and against Christianity in general; that its advocates are so divided in sentiment and belief, even on those doctrines which are considered as essential to vita]. Religion. Although the inspiration of the sacred scriptures has been fully attested by noble champions in the Church of Christ; yet it cannot be denied, that infidelity has had, for reasons above inti mated, the power, not only of weakening the Church Within, but also of greatly retarding the missionary of the cross in his efforts to tell of a Saviour's love to a world lying in wickedness. If what is set forth in this volume is a true exposition of the word of God; it will be found that doctrines, apparently conflicting, when rightly viewed, perfectly harmonise - It will take from the hand of infl delity that weapon which has done more evil in these latter times, than all other instrumentalities of Satan. It will have a tendency to promote such an alliance among the saints of the Most High, as will be truly formidable against every thing that opposeth and exalteth itself, in opposition to Truth.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges prevailing doctrines on eternal punishment and universal salvation. The author argues that these seemingly contradictory doctrines within scripture can coexist. Using original Greek, the author demonstrates that words often translated as eternal or everlasting do not necessarily refer to unending time periods. The book places the debate within the broader historical context of the beliefs of both the author and the early church, exploring the nuances and subtleties of the original scripture in order to provide a new understanding of both concepts. This book will appeal to scholars, theologians, and anyone interested in the intersection of history, theology, and language.
