If it is true, how will this impact people? Is this the good news?
Christian Universalism: The belief that everything in heaven and on earth will ulitmately be reconciled back to the Creator through the work of Jesus Christ, his Son. In plain language, no one is going to be endlessly tortured as has been commonly taught. The teaching has been in the church since its inception. The ancient church fathers called it in by its name found in the Greek New Testament, apokatastasis, the is, the "restoration of all things." (Acts 3:21) It has also be known simply by the name universalism, sometimes it's called "Biblical Universalism. It's been known by Ultimate Reconciliation, Universal Salvation, Universal Restoration, The Larger Hope, The Greater Faith, the Doctrine of Inclusion. I, Gary Amirault, like to call it the "Victorious Gospel of Jesus Christ. Paul, the apostle called it the "Glorious Gospel."
