By John Wesley Hanson

Book Overview

The Leaven At Work: Or Some Of The Concessions Of Orthodoxy In The Direction Of Universalism is a book written by John Wesley Hanson in 1888. The book explores the idea of universalism, which suggests that all people will eventually be saved and reconciled with God. Hanson examines how some orthodox Christian beliefs have shifted towards the idea of universalism, and how this has affected the church and its teachings. He discusses various concessions made by orthodox Christians towards universalism, including the idea that God desires the salvation of all people, and the belief that punishment is for the purpose of correction rather than retribution. Hanson also examines the biblical basis for universalism and addresses criticisms of the doctrine. Overall, The Leaven At Work provides a thoughtful and insightful analysis of the relationship between orthodox Christianity and universalism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
