Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Argument to Prove That Death Is Not Obligatory on Christians Ascill, john, an eccentric English litteratear, born about the middle of the 17th century. He studied for the bar, and at intervals during the whole of his checkered life transacted legal business in some form or other; but having early displayed a predilection for writing political pamphlets, he soon became involved, in spite of his clever ness, in serious pecuniary difficulties. Fortunatelv for him, Parlia ment had just passed an act (1699) for the resumption of forfeited estates in Ireland, and Commissioners were appointed to settle claims. A bright vision fiitted across the mind of the much-harassed man. He sailed for the sister isle, and found the whole country wrangling in lawsuits. His talents, and the favor of the Commissioners, secured to him a lucrative practice and he even acquired sufficient influence to obtain a seat in the Irish Parliament. Some time, however, before taking possession of his seat, Asgill had published a most extraordinary pamphlet, entitled 'an argument preeing that, according to the Covenant of Eternal Life re vealed in the Scriptures, man may be translated henee into that Eternal Life without passing th rough Death, Much to Asgill's surprise, the public flew into a rage against this absurd production; the Irish parliament voted it a blasphemous libel', and the astonished author was expelled from the House after four days. In 1705, Asgill returned to England, and enter ed the English Parliament as Member for Bramber, in Sussex. But the fame of his unlucky pamphlet haunted him perpetually, and at last proved a Nemesis; for the English House, to be not less virtuous than the Irish one, took up the treatise, condemned it to be burnt by the common hangman, as profane and blasphemous, and expelled Asgill on the 18th of December, 1707. After this, his circumstances rapidly grew worse, until at last he found something like peace in the King's Bench and the Fleet, between which two places his excursions were confined for the term of his natural life. Here he continued to practice professionally, and - for he never succeeded in overcoming this weakness - to indite innumerable pamphlets on political and theological topics. He died in November.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catholic Church has in recent decades been associated with political efforts to eliminate the death penalty. It was not always so. This timely work reviews and explains the Catholic Tradition regarding the death penalty, demonstrating that it is not inherently evil and that it can be reserved as a just form of punishment in certain cases. Drawing upon a wealth of philosophical, scriptural, theological, and social scientific arguments, the authors explain the perennial teaching of the Church that capital punishment can in principle be legitimate—not only to protect society from immediate physical danger, but also to administer retributive justice and to deter capital crimes. The authors also show how some recent statements of Church leaders in opposition to the death penalty are prudential judgments rather than dogma. They reaffirm that Catholics may, in good conscience, disagree about the application of the death penalty. Some arguments against the death penalty falsely suggest that there has been a rupture in the Church's traditional teaching and thereby inadvertently cast doubt on the reliability of the Magisterium. Yet, as the authors demonstrate, the Church's traditional teaching is a safeguard to society, because the just use of the death penalty can be used to protect the lives of the innocent, inculcate a horror of murder, and affirm the dignity of human beings as free and rational creatures who must be held responsible for their actions. By Man Shall His Blood Be Shed challenges contemporary Catholics to engage with Scripture, Tradition, natural law, and the actual social scientific evidence in order to undertake a thoughtful analysis of the current debate about the death penalty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.
