The Ancient History of Universalism: From the Time of the Apostles to Its Condemnation in the Fifth General Council, A. D. 553; With an Appendix, Trac

This book by Hosea Ballou traces the history of universalism, the belief that all souls will eventually be saved, from the time of the apostles to the fifth general council in 553 A.D. Ballou argues that universalism is a natural outgrowth of the Christian belief in a loving and merciful God, and he provides evidence from the Bible and other religious texts to support his claims. This is a fascinating exploration of an often-overlooked aspect of Christian theology.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
