Sinopsis
Excerpt from Universalism Not of God: An Examination of the System of Universalism; Its Doctrine, Arguments, and Fruits, With the Experience of the Author, During a Ministry of Twelve Years
I have thought that it would be appropriate to speak of my own experience upon the doc trine of Universalism, and to make mention of the mercy of God as displayed in my con version from error to truth. If my soul has been transformed, and my heart renewed, God has done it.~ If my feet have been taken from the way of death, - if my work is changed from leading souls to ruin, to turning them into the path of life,-the glory belongs to God. And if I shall ever be of any service in the kingdom of God's dear Son, and shine at last with those who have turned many to righteousness, the Holy Ghost has been the agent by whom it has been effected. Why, then, should I not first turn and give the glory to God?
I speak of Universalism as one familiar with the subject. Its influence I felt in childhood: then learned I its doctrines. Its arguments are as familiar to me as house hold words. Its moral tendency I know too well; its effect upon man, and the best good of man, I have repeatedly seen. Its results are uniform; one tendency distinguishes it; it bears one kind of fruit; it everywhere is peculiar for*one sort Of influence, and is ever characterized by the same effects. De scribe its triumphs in one place, and you describe them in all. Exhibit its tendency in one case, and you have a picture of the system everywhere.
