Synopsis
Excerpt from Orthodoxy as It Is, or Its Mental Influence and Practical Inefficiency and Effects Illustrated by Philosophy and Facts
Again: the object, and what is now regarded as the best means to accomplish it, are before the reader. That it is worth all the attention which can possibly be bestows upon it, is evident to every candid mind. It is to be instrumental in saving parents and children from insanity, lunatic asylums, a premature death, and suicide - in sav ing them from deep agony and sorrow, and from erroneous views of the character of God - ia saving them from false reasoning, from false doctrines, and from a false interpretation of the Bible. This is a work worth all the talent of man ea, of an angel. Could we succeed in accomp ishing our object, instead of the heaving sigh, the aching heart and the scalding tear being the companions of doubting souls, peace, like a sweet angel of light, would dwell with them; and they would calmly rest upon the promises of God, confiding in him, believmg that they were under his pitying eye and shadowing wing!

Orthodoxy as It Is (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the sobering effects of the belief in endless divine punishment. The author, an avowed Universalist, provides concrete examples to support the claim that such a belief can lead to deep melancholy and despair. The book draws upon sermons and writings of popular orthodox ministers to illustrate how vivid descriptions of hell's torments can unhinge the human mind and even drive individuals to insanity. Through an analysis of historical accounts, the author demonstrates the corrosive effects of this doctrine on society, fostering negative emotions and hindering personal growth. The book challenges readers to confront the psychological and emotional toll that the belief in eternal damnation has had on individuals and communities throughout history, inviting them to question the compatibility of such a doctrine with a loving and just God.
