The New York Universalist paper
says sit is no longer necessary the
act should be overlooked, that the
major part of Univcrsalis,s believe in a
future state of discipline. Analogy,
facts, the scheme of salvation revealed
in the Bible, the relation existing be-
tween God and his creatures, all prove
to my mind the position that there
must be disciplinary process, to in
duce a progress in holiness; that there
must be difference of moral character
and spiritual excellence, of purity and
