Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sword of Truth: Christ and Paul; Socrates and Plato; Which?; Future Punishment, Biblical, Scientific and Philosophic; Endless Misery and Purgatorial Restoration, Myths of Heathenism
Now, if such is the truth, then there is the same relation and connection between the punishment andthe grace as between the foundation of a house and thelhouse builtthereon - without the one the other has no existence; the house, therefore, being built upon the foundation, is of the foundation, and so the grace 15 of the punishment. It is proper, therefore, to read all the passages of Scripture containing the word grace, with the qualifying words Eternal punishment before them It must also be re membered that grace means favor, a free gift. Paul had a thorn in the ?esh, the messenger of satan, to buffet him, and for his encouragement God says to him, My grace is sufficient for you, and according to Dr. Leacock He should have said, Paul, My grace of eternal punish ment is sufficient for you, which I will freely give unto you, and it is to be in?icted by satan, who will buffet you without any end.
