president of a theological college, how he would get over that
difficulty. He replied that he believed that the word "aion" would more
fully meet the case, and that that word would more exactly accord with
the capacity of our finite mind, the word "forever" expressing an idea
entirely beyond our comprehension. That seems to be good sense, and more
in harmony with the whole trend of Revelation.

I have issued this treatise under an assumed name; not because I am
specially careful of my reputation, but rather because I wish the work
to be regarded solely on its own merits. If any reader feels disposed to
write me, either briefly or more at length, and whether in criticism or
commendation, I shall be glad.
