In fine, I have now examined your system. I have compared it with human experience, sound philosophy, and common sense, and have found it mocking common sense, outraging human experience, and denying the most obvious principles of sound mental philosophy. We have also weighed it in the balances of the sanctuary,and here we have found it fearfully wanting. Let me exhort you then not to trust your soul another day upon the delusive hope that you shall go to heaven,because there is no hell. One sinner will make a hell in any part of the moral universe, where he may chance to be. There is no running away from self or sin. Your sin will find you out. Yours as ever.

P. S. In these letters I have taken Universalism as it is; not as you would define it, when pressed with its absurdities; but as it is believed and preached by its most popular advocates, and defined and defended by its standard authors.These authors, as you very well know, are ultra-Universalists. They believe in no retribution in the world to come.

THE END.
