Universalism Against Itself is a philosophical book written by A. Wilford Hall. The book explores the concept of universalism, which is the belief that all individuals will ultimately be saved and reconciled with God. However, Hall argues that this belief is self-contradictory and cannot be sustained. The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Hall provides an overview of universalism and its historical development. He discusses various arguments in favor of universalism, including the idea that God's love and mercy are infinite and that punishment cannot be eternal. In the second part of the book, Hall examines the logical and theological problems with universalism. He argues that universalism is self-contradictory because it presupposes the existence of free will, yet denies the possibility of eternal damnation. He also critiques the idea that God's love and mercy are unconditional, arguing that this view is inconsistent with the biblical concept of justice. In the final part of the book, Hall proposes an alternative view of salvation that is compatible with the Christian tradition. He suggests that salvation is conditional upon faith in Jesus Christ and that eternal damnation is a possibility for those who reject Him. Overall, Universalism Against Itself is a thought-provoking and challenging book that will appeal to anyone interested in the philosophy of religion or Christian theology.1883. A scriptural analysis of the doctrine. The system of belief called universalism teaches that all men will be saved regardless of moral character. It is as old as sin itself and grows out of the depravity of the heart. This work is a thorough, but fair, analysis and exposure of a system which is considered false in all its leading features and more dangerous in its tendencies than all other errors combined.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
