Free All Shall Be Well: Explorations In Universal Salvation And Christian Theology, From Origen To Moltmann Ebooks Online
All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well Lady Julian of Norwich Universalism runs like a slender thread through the history of Christian theology. It has always been a minority report and has often been regarded as heresy, but it has proven to be a surprisingly resilient "idea" 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 that follow 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.

I found it encouraging to see how and why different Christians have come to believe in Universal Salvation through-out Church History. The Introduction and chapter on Origen were particularly interesting as they explained the complexity (& dodginess) around the anathemas against Origen and why UR is still orthodox. The chapter on C.S. Lewis' hero, George MacDonald, was also excellent.
