compassion and the "utter overthrow of Trinitarian theology"...

This from "The Unitarian Handbook of Scriptural Illustrations and Expositions" compiled by Robert Spears, and published in 1862. I would maybe have a little more compassion for the Trinitarians but still a nifty statement of Scriptural Unitarianism...

"THE INFINITE AND UNPURCHASED LOVE OF GOD.
"God is love, good to all, the Father of us all; not the God of the Jews only, but also the God of the Gentiles; exercising loving kindness and tender mercy, the Father of mercy, from -whom every good and perfect gift cometh, kind unto the unthankful and the evil, great in goodness and rich in mercy, whose mercy is everlasting and whose compassions fail not, merciful and gracious, always ready to forgive." So the divine page glows with his goodness and love. How degrading, therefore, are the views inculcated in the name of Christianity by many of the churches; limiting his compassion to a few of his creatures, representing his pardoning mercy as purchased by the blood of his Son, making mortal nan more just than God, and a finite being more benevolent than his Maker. This section of Scriptural passages which might have been greatly increased, sets forth the Unitarian faith in the attributes of God, to the utter overthrow of Trinitarian theology.
