A.P. Adams, author of The True Basis of Redemption and Bible Harmony published a newsletter entitled The SPIRIT of the Word. We don't know how many editions were published. Scripture Studies Concern published in a book issues from March, 1885 to February, 1886. These editions plus a little more is contained in this on line book. A.P. Adams was one of the pioneers along with Andrew Jukes, Thomas Allin, F.W. Farrar, A.E. Knoch along with others of introducing the Glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ to the English speaking world outside of the Universalist Association. The message of universal salvation had been buried beneath the mountains of the "traditions of men which make the word of God of no effect." (Matt. 15:6-9) A.P.Adams was a champion in his day restoring the hope of the salvation of all mankind through Jesus Christ's victory on the Cross. Gary Amirault
