All Shall be Well Résumé

All Shall be Well: Explorations in Universal Salvation and Christian Theology, from Origen to Moltmann Gregory MacDonald

Universalism runs like a slender thread through the history of Christian theology. Over the centuries Christian universalism, in one form or another, has been reinvented time and time again. In this book an international team of scholars explore the diverse universalisms of Christian thinkers from the Origen to Moltmann. In the introduction Gregory MacDonald argues that theologies of universal salvation occupy a space between heresy and dogma. Therefore disagreements about whether all will be saved should not be thought of as debates between "the orthodox" and "heretics" but rather as "in-house" debates between Christians. The studies in this collection aim, in the first instance, to hear, understand, and explain the eschatological claims of a range of Christians from the third to the twenty-first centuries. They also offer some constructive, critical engagement with those claims.

All Shall be Well Avis

''This collection of essays, carefully edited by Gregory MacDonald/Robin Parry, presents various positions on the questions at issue, from Origen to Jurgen Moltmann. Perhaps its greatest strength is that the editor leaves the reader to assess the arguments for and against, giving a good historical overview in the introductory chapter, where universalism is characterized as (falling somewhere between heresy and dogma). [...] Gregory MacDonald/Robin Parry is evangelical about universal salvation, and this fine collection of essays is guaranteed to stimulate the on-going scholarly debate on the subject. Brown Neil, Australian Catholic University in: Journal of Religious History, Vol. 36 (3), September 2012 'Readily accessible to the general reader, this engaging and informative collection will be of great value to students of theology and religious history.' Studies in Spirituality, volume 22, 2012 "...The belief that all will ultimately end up in the presence of God and hell will be empty has been a minority position in the Christian tradition, and it is probably true that most Christians have considered such a belief to be non-orthodox. As this book demonstrates, however, there have always been Christian voices supporting it; to listen and understand those voices is the goal of this volume. [...] Eschatology is a fascinating theological discipline; it is also quite demanding. It gives one the opportunity to synthesize the insights from the theology of creation, anthropology, theology of God, and salvation, among others. The authors of the essays in this volume demonstrate their expertise on the views of the theologians they present; their expositions provide the reader with the basic rationale for the universalist position each thinker advocated. [...] All Shall Be Well is a commendable contribution to the study of apokatastasis..." Martin Madar, Heythrop Journal, Vol 54, Issue 2, March 2013. 'The thorough bibliographical material is very helpful for those wanting to investigate the work of particular theologians more extensively.' Mark Smith, Churchman, 127/3, Autumn 2013 This book achieves something rare in theology, a work that is riveting, occasionally exciting, challenging, and ultimately encouraging for those of us who cannot sit still with dogma, but must engage it, learn it, and endure the joys of its provocation. -Nigel Zimmermann, The Expository Times, Volume 127, Number 4, January 2016
