Note de contenu : |
- I. General Considerations: 1. Eternal punishment maintained, but (a) death does not fix destiny: (b) the unevangelized not necessarily lost / 2. Imagination and rhetoric out of place / 3. Notable soul winners taught eternal punishment / 4. Deniers of the doctrine err in statement / 5. One-sided views of God’s character / 6. Submit to the Word alone / 7. Appeal to “ general tenor ” of Scripture, not to its actual statements / 8. Fear a sound motive / 9. Unbelief said to be induced by the doctrine / 10. Discussion of immortal, existence, life, death / 11. Reason given false place.
- II. Has Man a Future ? - III. The Future : Is it Universal Restoration ?: Possibilities: 1. Perdition of all; 2. Restoration of all; 3. Of some only / God’s alternatives when creating / Effects of the new birth — chastening or punishment / Human relationships not eternal / The urgency of the gospel. - IV. The Subject Continued: The urgency of the gospel / Is punishment remedial? / Universalists teach salvation through one’s own sufferings / Perfected friends to help after death — as in spiritism / Fallen human nature irremediable / The teaching is Gnostic. - V. Is Penal Suffering Remedial ?: kolasis and timoria. - VI. Annihilation: Unconsciousness in death-state — Personality inheres in the soul, not the spirit. - VII. The Lake of Fire: apollumi — Beast in lake of fire — For ever and ever — In Old Testament and New Testament / Weymouth — Bartlett — Septuagint — time is permanent — Sodom. - VIII. Further Proofs of Eternal Punishment: “ made alive ” — “ the many ” — worm and fire—our conception of God — Grace — No divine element in man, not all men are “ of God.” - IX. God All in All: " deliver the kingdom ” — “ without ” the kingdom — “ restoration of all things ” — “ Every created thing ” worships — ktisma — Since the world began ” — “ destruction of enemies ” — Serpent crushed / Satan a crucial test of doctrine of universal salvation. - X. Death and Afterwards: Death does not settle destiny — 1. Some seal doom in life — 2. So Antichrist and followers — 3. The sheep and goats — 4. Enoch and Elijah — 5. Raptured saints — 6. Eternal security gained in this life — 7.“ die in your sins ” — Pharaoh — Antichrist’s followers doomed. What of the unevangelized? — seeking incorruptibility — The finally doomed are flagrantly wicked. - XI. The Spirits in Prison not human — man’s constitution — Identity of these spirits — Tartarus — Their special sin. - XII. The Unevangelized (continued from Chapter X) Will they hear the gospel after death? Premature death does not assure eternal death — Tyre, Sidon, Sodom — Reasons for preaching the gospel. - XIII. Angels and Demons: opportunity for repentance — Lamentation over king of Tyre — Elohim called to alter their ways — Fidelity of all tested — reconciling work cosmic — no evidence that these beings do repent. - XIV. The Nature and Effect of Redemption: A German argument for Universal Restoration. - XV. Freedom of the Will: If actual, must extend to eternal issues, or there must come a point where the will is not free. Universalism, Annihilation, and Hyper-Calvin-ism contrary to this full freedom, and therefore are fatalistic. Fatalism is atheistic. - XVI. The Right Attitude to Error and Those in Error: Condemn and Expose the error, but forbear with him who holds it, unless he makes schism by it — O.T., Christ and the Apostles, as example — Acts xv. - XVII. The Great White Throne: God’s final statements — Finality marks them for the righteous and the unrighteous — Works the basis — the book of life — The “ city ” and the “ lake ” are both figurative but both final. - The Redeemer's Tears (John Howe). - Index of Scripture Passages |
