Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Eternal Penalty: Nine Essays From "the Northwestern Church" The following Essays were written for the "Northwestern Church" in the performance of the writers duty, as Editor in chief of that paper. They are not controversial, and were not intended to be. They were written with the design of suggesting views of the reasonableness of the doctrine of Eternal Penalty, which the writer could find nowhere set forth in connected form. The doctrine has been assailed, and defended also, in this country, on the basis of a Theology which is not ours. It is time, perhaps, to look at it from the point of view of the Protestant Episcopal Church. The writer believes that in reason, there is no escape from the admission of Everlasting Penalty, except by arguments which will also prove that there is no temporal penalty. He has not discussed the matter from Scripture, because he has always found the Scriptures prejudged-the Word of God made of none effect by a conclusion formed from reasoning, with which that Word was forced to agree. He examined this reasoning on the basis of the Theology of his own Church, and finds that, on that basis, it has no meaning whatever. While the articles were in course of publication in the paper, they were highly commended, and their appearance, in their present form, urged by several Bishops, and a number of the clergy and laity. In deference to their opinion, and in the hope that they may be found, at best, suggestive to his brethren of the clergy, and reasonably readable by any one interested in the important question discussed, the writer gives them to the Church, asking only that it be remembered that they are merely hastily Written newspaper articles.
