Product Description
Jesus plainly asserted the doctrine of Hell and eternal punishment, but men have long sought to dodge around the horrific implications involved. For hundreds of years, reaching back even to the time of the Church Fathers, there have been those who taught that all souls would be saved and enter Heaven, regardless of sins committed in this life, and without the necessity of the Atonement.It is a much more comforting thought for the wicked and the apostate. In this book, early American Methodist Luther Lee felt obliged to address the rising tide of the heresy, specifically as propagated by Universalism. Like a pernicious weed, it returns again and again. Modern-day advocates (even among Wesleyan ranks) call for us to rethink and revise church teaching on never-ending damnation for those who refuse God's gracious call. Masterfully wielding scripture, church doctrine and logic, Lee takes apart the error point by point, fairly and without histrionics. It is as skillful, unanswerable, fresh and relevant in the twenty-first century as when he first penned it.
