The Doctrine of Satisfaction by the Merits of Christ: Supposed to Be Blasphemy Against God and His Son Jesus Christ (1733)

The Doctrine of Satisfaction by the Merits of Christ: Supposed to be Blasphemy Against God and His Son Jesus Christ is a book written by Ebenezer Hewlett and published in 1733. The book explores the doctrine of satisfaction, which is the belief that Jesus Christ's death on the cross satisfied God's justice and made it possible for humans to be reconciled with God. Hewlett argues that this doctrine is often misunderstood and misinterpreted, leading some to accuse it of being blasphemous. He defends the doctrine, explaining its biblical basis and showing how it is consistent with the character of God and the teachings of Jesus Christ. The book is written in a scholarly style and includes extensive references to biblical passages and theological works. It is an important contribution to the ongoing debate over the nature of Christ's atonement and its significance for Christian theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
