Barth, Origen, and Universal Salvation: Restoring Particularity

Autor Tom Greggs
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 mai 2009
Barth, Origen, and Universal Salvation offers a bold new presentation of universal salvation. Building constructively from the third- century theologian, Origen, and the twentieth-century Swiss theologian, Karl Barth, Tom Greggs offers a defence of universalism as rooted in Christian theology, showing this belief does not have to be at the expense of human particularity, freedom, and Christian faith. Examining Barth's doctrine of election and Origen's understanding of apokatastasis, Greggs proposes that a proper understanding of the eternal salvific plan of God in the person of Jesus Christ points towards universal salvation. The relationship between the work of the Spirit and the Son in salvation is central to this understanding. Universal salvation is grounded in the person of Christ as himself historic and particular, and the Spirit makes the reality of that universal work of Christ present to individuals and communities in the present. The discussion includes creative suggestions for the political and ecclesial implications of such a presentation of salvation.

Recenzii

Tom Greggs's work is a very thoughtful piece on the logic and implications of universalism... stimulating and well-researched... this work is suited as a conversation partner for upper-level Masters students and those undertaking research into Universalism, salvation, and Barth's theology.
