doctrine of the eternal damnation of the vast majority of
the human race, and endeavours to show that its adoption is not, as is generally supposed, a necessary consequence of belief in the Bible. Without venturing to commit himself to universalism, he avows his firm convic- tion that some means of salvation will be provided for the innumerable multitude of individuals who cannot be looked upon as regenerate at the time of their death. As he fully admits the Bible to be our only source of information on this point, he devotes himself to proving, by means of a careful examination of a great number of Scripture texts, that his view is in strict accordance with the word of God. He writes with much fairness and some ability, and we may safely recommend his book to the notice of those who are just awaking to the discordance between the ordinary doctrine and their own moral sense.
