Scarce Unitarian Sermon The Life To Come By Rev AP Putnam Delivered In 1875 Citing Spiritualism as Proof of Christianity And The Afterlife
Putnam, A.P. Rev. The Life To Come. Tracts of the American Unitarian Association No. 11. American Unitarian Association. Boston. [1875].
Sermon on the afterlife by Unitarian Rev. Alfred Porter (AP)Putnam with an unusual angle on spiritualism — spiritualist evidence of life after death provides “nothing new” that was not already found in scripture. Engaging with the reality of spirit life as proof of Christian doctrine, Putnam discusses the possibility of repentance after death and the soul’s progress past punishment toward salvation, as well as the possibility that guardian angels are in fact deceased loved ones.
A noted Brooklyn minister, writer, and correspondent of Walt Whitman, Rev. Putnam was also the author of Old Anti-Slavery Days, in addition to a number of titles on related to history and Unitarianism.
