  This article considers the semilinear boundary value problem given by the
Poisson equation, -\Delta u=f(u) in a bounded domain \Omega\subset \R^{n} with
smooth boundary. For the zero boundary value case, we approximate a solution
using the Newton-imbedding procedure. With the assumptions that f, f', and f"
are bounded functions on \R, with f'<0, and \Omega\subset \R^{3}, the
Newton-imbedding procedure yields a continuous solution. This study is in
response to an independent work which applies the same procedure, but assuming
that f' maps the Sobolev space H^{1}(\Omega) to the space of H\"older
continuous functions C^{\alpha}(\bar{\Omega}), and f(u), f'(u), and f"(u) have
uniform bounds. In the first part of this article, we prove that these
assumptions force f to be a constant function. In the remainder of the article,
we prove the existence, uniqueness, and H^{2}-regularity in the linear elliptic
problem given by each iteration of Newton's method. We then use the regularity
estimate to achieve convergence.
