A Comprehensive Book.

“THE ATONEMENT: an examination of a remedial system in the light of nature and revelation.” This is the title of a book of 368 pages, by Elder J. H. Waggoner.

It would be impossible to find a subject of greater importance, of grander scope, or of more thrilling interest to every human being, than the Atonement. This fact is acknowledged by all Christians, however much they may differ in regard to other doctrines, or in their theories of this. In fact, the Atonement is the gospel. This being the case, a book on that subject, treating it in a candid manner, from a scriptural standpoint, should be hailed with joy by all lovers of truth.

This book is a critical and exhaustive treatise on the plan of salvation as revealed in the Scriptures, showing its harmony with the principles of justice and mercy, its consistency with reason, and its final results as affecting the destiny of the human race. We think that we run no risk in saying that it is by far the most complete work yet published on the subject. It is complete, because it considers the Atonement in all its bearings, tracing out all the doctrines which spring from it; and since everything depends on the Atonement, the book is in reality a compendium of Christian doctrine—a Christian system.
