The Evangelical Universalist Forum

Details on the Forthcoming Book

Sure!

Although, since you got it ahead of the rest of us, maybe you should add it (even moderate admin powers should work for that), so you can describe it better. :smiley:

I’ll happily add it, I just wasn’t sure if I was allowed as technically it says

Excellent news :slight_smile:

I like presents, even belated ones.

You can add “Alex” to that too, now. :smiley: (That was the admin list.)

Wow, Alex is a mod? Good deal. That was quick. :mrgreen:

And, this book is ready for ordering!? Oh, how I wish I had a job right now!

I am indeed :sunglasses:

I got my copy the day before Robin so I was extra chuffed :mrgreen:

Don’t see it on amazon at all. Where you guys finding it?

Mine was mailed two days ago. :smiley:

Probably won’t be able to get to it right away though. Too many things ahead of it to read… :cry: :cry:

I too got mine directly from the publisher, however, I do believe it will be available on Amazon in a few weeks/months. The publisher gives good discounts on multiples too, in case anyone wanted to know :slight_smile:

It’s looking good so far. I read the chapter on Jaques Ellul to my wife last night, the von Balthasar section this morning, and am now dipping into Moltmann.

And it’s perfect weather for it.

A critical comment, but meant more as an observation than an argument. It does seem heavily weighted to the Modern Era.

We’ll have to ask Robin why he chose the people he did, when he gets back from his conferences in the US.

Personally, I assume that after the church condemned Origen for other things, universalism got unjustly tainted and it’s taken this long to get past that?? Anyway, being part of a remnant or minority for a little while doesn’t make it not true :stuck_out_tongue:

In fact God seems to be inordinately fond of remnants (as well as beetles)

And remnant beetles… :mrgreen:

Ahh! :smiley: Yes - Paul and Ringo!

Yes, the reason why the modern era is weighted is simply that there are more universalists in the modern era. Very few between 5th C and 17th C (for reasons explained in the intro). If there was ever a second volume it would include Clement and a few other old guys but most universalist theologians are post-17th C.

Robin, is there any chance of you posting the intro on the forum for the benefit of those who haven’t got your book yet? Although as it’s about 25 pages, perhaps just a few snippets? :slight_smile:
