Life Only in Christ / Littlejohn, Wolcott H / (HB/1894-1894/B+/USED)

There is one, and but one view of the nature of man, through which this consummation so devoutly desired, can be achieved. That doctrine is known as "Conditional Immortality." Proceeding upon the hypothesis that man was made mortal in the outset, and that he can obtain eternal life through faith in Christ alone, it meets all the aspirations of the saint for endless and perfect being, and renders possible such a disposition of the incorrigibly wicked as shall be found consonant with the wisdom and mercy of an omniscient and loving God and Father.
In presenting this little volume to the people, the writer has been actuated by the single purpose of proving that the view in question is capable of vindication both from the rational and the scriptural standpoint.
