Over the past six years or so I was relieved to discover two other alternatives that are also part of the Christian tradition, though less prominent--universalism and the subject of the present book, conditional immortality. Universalism--that everyone would eventually be saved--did not, in the final analysis, seem to really come to grips with the overwhelming scriptural testimony that some kind of radical fateful decision is possible to people. Conditional immortality--that people who absolutely refuse God's plan for them will be taken out of existence--seems to me the best scriptural understanding of what the Lord meant by losing one's soul--not everlasting punishment but the withdrawal of existence. This book is an attempt to explain this theological theory. It is not presented as a definite dogma or teaching of the church, but as one of the possible results of a persistent and irrevocable decision against God.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Resource Publications (CA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/21\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498297271\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Robert Wild","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42547799752885,"sku":"9781498297271","price":24.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_727d553f-83f4-46db-9b79-c2b8f0aadcdf.jpg?v=1670337386","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/a-catholic-reading-guide-to-conditional-immortality-9781498297271","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
