The Self-Plumed Bishop Unplumed A Reply to the Profound Erudition of the Self-Named Hugh Latimer, in His Doctrine of Endless Punishment Asserted

"The Self-Plumed Bishop Unplumed" by Thomas Latham is a response to arguments made by a writer using the name Hugh Latimer, concerning eternal punishment. Latham's work dives into Christian beliefs about sin and divine justice, challenging Latimer’s defense of never-ending suffering. Latham argues that Latimer's claims lack proof and questions how a loving God could inflict endless torment on people. Instead, Latham promotes the idea of punishment as a way to correct behavior, suggesting that God's fairness is shown through mercy, not revenge. Through careful examination and clear thinking, he aims to correct errors in religious discussions, pushing for a kinder understanding of God's justice that leads to the saving of all souls.
