Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Bible Threatenings Explained: Or, Passages of Scripture Sometimes Quoted to Prove Endless Punishment Shown to Teach Consequences of Limited Duration When one who has been reared in the Evangelical Church is favorably impressed with the doctrine of Universal Salvation, it frequently happens that the many texts he has heard quoted against it, operate as stumblings blocks in his way. The author of this book believes that no text of Scripture, properly understood, in any manner traverses the strand central truth of the Gospel: God´s triumph over all his foes, converting them to himself; and he has arranged these expositions in a brief and popular style for the purpose of showing that the Threatenings of the Bible are perfectly harmonious with the Promises of Scripture; in fact, that the threatenings are given in order that the promises of Universal Redemption may be fulfilled. He agrees with Canon Farrar of the Episcopal Church, who says: If the decision be made to turn softly on the literal meaning of the scriptures, I have no hesitation whatever in declaring my strong conviction that the Universalist and Annihilist theories have far more evidence of this sort for them than the popular view. It seems to me that if many passages of Scripture be taken quit literally, universal restoration is unequivocally taught, but that endless torments are nowhere clearly taught - the passages which appear to teach that doctrine being either obviously figurative or historically misunderstood." If these pages shall assist any mind to remove obstacles that prevent it from beholding God as the Savior of the world, its purpose will be fulfilled.
