Bible Threatenings Explained

Bible threatenings explained; or, passages of scripture sometimes quoted to prove endless punishment shown to teach consequences of limited duration

The defensive half of Hanson's scriptural project: a passage-by-passage examination of the texts most often quoted to prove endless punishment — the unquenchable fire, the worm that dieth not, the sin against the Holy Ghost, the rich man and Lazarus. In each case Hanson argues the language, read in its original context, describes judgments and consequences of limited duration. A staple reference work for nineteenth-century Universalist ministers and debaters.
