Présentation de l'éditeur
Three opinions respecting the ultimate destiny of bad men, differing from each other by one or t Avo alleged measures of infinitude, yet each held by confessedly good men, must be held with a common modesty and command a degree of common respect. So wide a divergence of honest belief reminds all that they belong to an erring race. In the minds of some the fact encourages a general scepticism respecting the future destiny of man; and the same persons tell us that the Scriptures, whence so opposite views are supposed to be derived, must give little information and be of little value. Of those who prize the Scriptures as a Revelation, some doubt whether clear light on the perplexed subject was designed for man; it is better for us, they say, not to know precisely that with which duty does not concern us; others are solicitous that the import of the Revelation here should be better understood; and all, that it should be more deeply felt, and also that the occasion for scepticism should be somehow done away. In a question of so transcendent importance, neither of the contested opinions can by a sober mind be easily exchanged Jfor another. Such change can rarely be the result of a merely logical process; it will generally be attended with change or development of the moral feelings, and will meet friendly gratulations or fears.

Debt and Grace: As Related to the Doctrine of a Future Life (Classic Reprint)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book proposes that the dignity of humankind lies not in its destiny, but in its privilege to seek an eternal life. It was lost, from the moment of the Fall. Man's glory, dominion and worth departed, leaving only a sentence of death. The author contends that the dignity of humankind is based on the work of Christ. The author goes on to posit several different philosophical and religious perspectives on evil and God across history and categorizes them into four theologies: Dualism, Absolutism, Pantheism, and Theism. Through this categorization, the author further examines the impact of these theologies on the human condition and faith. This book not only provides new insights into the problem of evil but also offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between God and humanity, making it a valuable resource for those interested in philosophy, theology, and the human condition. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
