The Theory of Probation After Death
By Editor
The following from a correspondent of the Congregationalist, is an example of the natural working of the theory of a probation after death:— "One of our clergymen, not long ago, wrote a paper in defense of the Andover theology. The paper was printed and a copy sent to me. Not far from this time I met the son of this clergyman, and as we were conversing on religious matters, he lightly said: 'Well, if there's going to be another chance in the next world, I guess I won't trouble myself about religion now.'" Let it be remembered that this "Andover theology" is but another phase of the well-known doctrine of the Age-to-come, and that all Age-to-come teaching tends directly to lull men into security.
