Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: This book is all about God's immense love for ALL of his created beings and His intention to eventually redeem us all from sin and death! This belief system is sometimes referred to as Christian Universalism, Ultimate Reconciliation, or Universal Reconciliation. The idea is that Both Heaven and Hell are expressions of God's loving and redemptive purposes for ALL of mankind. Eventually Jesus will seek out ALL of His "lost sheep" and bring them to repentance. Also in this book, Richard Goyette, a Christian Layman, provides satisfying, and sometimes surprising, answers to perplexing theological questions which have challenged theologians down through the ages. The overall unifying assumption which forms the basis for the views expressed in this volume is that God is both loving and just, and everything He does is entirely consistent with both aspects of His nature. Beginning with this premise, Richard sought to interpret the Scriptures in such a way as to avoid paradoxical or contradictory conclusions relating to issues such as faith vs. works; God’s love vs. His justice; predestination vs. free-will; eternal security vs. conditional salvation; and many others. If you have been bothered by seemingly unanswerable questions about the nature of God and how He interacts with us, you may be surprised and delighted with some of the answers provided in this work. Here are just a few of the questions discussed in this book: Why does God hide Himself from public view? How can we know for sure that God exists and that Christianity is true? If God is perfect, why did He create such an imperfect world? Is the Bible literally true and inerrant? How much belief or faith is required for salvation? What does it really mean to be saved by Grace? How can you know for sure that you are saved? What is Hell like, and is it possible that Hell has a redemptive purpose? How can the doctrines of predestination and free will be reconciled? Are God’s judgments consistent with His loving and forgiving nature?
