Excerpt from Universalism, a Practical Power: Exhibited in a Series of Discourses
Critics will find here no attempt at fine writing. I h0pe the discourses are not seriously Open to literary objection; but they were prepared with less thought of rhetoric than of doctrine. I did not stop to cull phrases. I cared only to say what I had to say as intelligibly and forcibly as possible. I might have re written the Discourses into Essays. But I preferred to sacrifice what would thus have been gained in compactness and literary finish, for the sake of retaining the original freedom of treatment and directness of popular address. I hope the book will prove none the less acceptable or useful on this account.

Excerpt from Universalism, a Practical Power: Exhibited in a Series of Discourses
As long ago as 1846, in Lowell, Mass, I gave a series of Sermons on the Practical Superiority of Universalism. These were the crude germs of this volume. In the winter of 1858 - 9, better informed and more mature in thought and opinion, I went more thoroughly over the same ground, with my people in Lynn, Mass. And during the past winter, responding to the spirit of inquiry seemingly awakened by several Re views, which I gave of Lectures professedly against Univer saliam, I still further wrought over the material, and preached these Discourses in my Church, in this city. I was, each tims, advised to publish the Sermons, as they were previously given; but I have been more importunately solicited to put them into a book, since they were last delivered. It is, mainly, in compli ance with requests thus urged, that they are now published.
I will not disguise that I think such a book seriously needed. We have numerous expository and controversial works; and Bro. Thayer's admirable volume has supplied what has long been a desideratum among na - a clear and systematic pre scutation of the Theology qf Universalism. But we have no work specially discussing Universalism as a Spiritual Power, or setting forth its claims on purely practical grounds. This is the purpose of this volume. Its method, so far as I know, is peculiar to itself. I offer it, however, not as doing all that might be done with the subject, - only as an approximate treat ment of it, presenting, I trust, a little gold from the mine of thought it opens, to incite others to dig still richer treasures from it.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a spirited examination of Christian Universalism, broadening our understanding of its foundational concept: the idea that God's love and forgiveness embrace all. The author, a veteran Universalist preacher, draws from his own experience and thoughtful inquiry to present Universalism as more than a mere tenet of belief but rather a spiritual power that invigorates our lives. This perspective is contextualized with other religious viewpoints, particularly the prevalent Christian belief in eternal punishment. The book also discusses the practical and moral impact of Universalism on our lives. The author cogently argues for Universalism's moral superiority, highlighting its potential to inspire positive action and foster a flourishing society. By championing the 'Universalist' title, the author invites readers to embrace a Christianity that prioritizes the living out of universal love and redemption.
