Excerpt from Everlasting Punishment and Modern Speculation Having treated somewhat briefly in my former work, "Things to Come," of the doctrine of Future Punishment; and it having been suggested by critics and personal friends that a fuller discussion of the subject, published in a separate form, might serve the cause of truth; I have readily complied with the suggestion, as, notwithstanding the frequent and persistent assaults made upon this article of Christian belief, no attempt at its vindication, so far as I know, beyond what is contained in an occasional periodical article, sermon, or brief treatise, has for many years issued from the Scottish Press. Nor is it merely the assaults of recognised infidels that require to be met in these days, but the compromising policy of those whom none will suspect of either ungodliness or unbelief. Dogmatic theology in general is freely assailed. Nothing gains a readier ear and is surer of applause, than a reckless disparagement of fully established doctrine.
