Book Description

Excerpt from Objections to the Doctrine of Endless Punishment The history of endless punishment is one of bloodshed, cruelty and crime. Heathenish in its ori gin, unsupported in its claims by reason, philosophy, and revelation, by the friendly aid of bigotry and superstition, it has worked its way down to the present day. This system has undergone various modifications with a view to make it acceptable to the people of different ages. Chameleon like, it changes its color as often as circumstances require. The wolf dressed in a lamb-skin is a wolf still. So of the svstem of endless punishment; when stripped of the transparent gauze in which its ad vocates strive to hide its deformities, it is the hydra headed monster, full of wrath and cruelty.
