Publisher's Synopsis
Death Not Life: Or The Theological Hell And Endless Misery Disproved, And The Doctrine Of Destruction Established is a book written by Jacob Blain in 1853. The book provides a detailed critique of the traditional Christian doctrine of hell and eternal punishment. Blain argues that the idea of eternal punishment is incompatible with the nature of a loving God and that it is not supported by the Bible. Instead, he proposes the doctrine of destruction, which holds that the wicked will be destroyed rather than punished eternally. Blain provides a thorough examination of the biblical texts that have been used to support the traditional doctrine of hell and offers alternative interpretations. He also addresses common objections to the doctrine of destruction and argues that it is a more just and merciful view of the afterlife. The book is a significant contribution to the ongoing debate over the nature of hell and the fate of the wicked.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
