Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: In this book I provide convincing Scriptural support for the doctrine of “Universal Reconciliation,” also known as “Christian Universalism.” Many other related issues are also discussed, including the nature of Christian salvation, the purpose of God’s judgments, predestination and free will, the problem of evil, and popular misconceptions about Heaven and Hell. Many evangelical Christian doctrines are contradictory and/or paradoxical in nature. For example, why must unbelievers pay a penalty for sin that was already paid by Christ on the Cross of Calvary? If the penalty is everlasting torment in a place called Hell, how could Christ have possibly paid that penalty? He remained dead for less that three days and is alive today in Heaven. According to Jesus, God commands us to return good for evil and forgive our enemies, because that is what God is like. If God refuses to forgive His enemies and tortures them forever in Hell, wouldn’t that make God the greatest hypocrite of all time? How could God be both loving and unimaginably cruel and hateful at the same time? The word in the New Testament that is translated “eternal” and “everlasting” actually means quite the opposite. The Greek word “aionias” means “age-enduring” or “pertaining to an age or ages.” Why is this word and all of its derivatives mistranslated in most modern Bible versions? The doctrine of universal reconciliation was the prevailing view of the Christian Church and most of the Church Fathers during the first five centuries of the Church’s existence. Why is this doctrine almost never taught in the Church today? In this book I provide surprising and satisfying answers from the Scriptures to all of these questions and many more. If you are at least hopeful that I am right about God’s unconditional love for all mankind and His intention to redeem us all from sin and death, then you will absolutely love this book.
