Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Treatise on Atonement: In Which the Finite Nature of Sin Is Argued, Its Cause and Consequences as Such; The Necessity and Nature of Atonement; And Its Glorious Consequences, in the Final Reconciliation of All Men to Holiness and Happiness The "Treatise on Atonement," is one of the great books of American theology. It is a work which had a wide immediate influence, and still wider sequences. It is remarkable as being the first American book to anticipate all the essential points of the liberal theology of the present day. A hundred years ago when the great words dear to modern Christian ears had been scarcely heard or hinted, Hosea Ballou produced a volume in which they are all distinctly uttered, with a conviction in which there is no wavering or uncertainty. He was the first to catch the meaning of the stir and ferment in the religious thought of the times, and interpret it. The Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of man; Jesus the Interpreter of God to humanity; Salvation by Character, and not by decree or by doctrinal orthodoxy; penalty as the natural consequence and concurrent of sin; and the Largest Hope for man; - these are the great ideas which are assuming a primary importance in the minds of Broad-Churchmen of every name to-day. Now these same ideas are all presented in the "Treatise." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
