Click here to text us your thoughts and questions!In this second of our two-part series with writer Kurt Parton, the Curious Team continue their intriguing conversation around the idea of Christian universalism, ultimate reconciliation. In this episode the team explore those biblical passages that seem to clearly indicate judgement, death and hell. They reflect together on the rich man and Lazarus in (Luke 16), and Jesus‘s warning of the ‘unquenchable fire’ and ‘undying worm’ in Mark 9. How are we to understand the ‘fiery furnace’ of Matthew 13? The narrow and a broad ways Jesus spoke of? And what are we to make of the graphic imagery both Paul and John employ when they speak of an ultimate accountability for all mankind, especially those who reject Christ? Is post-mortem repentance really a biblical possibility? Join the team this week for what promises to be a second and final fascinating instalment into this highly controversial theme...Further ReadingHere’s a bit of homework for you….we’ve included a couple of articles that compliment this episode….Book Review: The Evangelical Universalist - RethinkingHell.comChristianUniversalism.comWhat we’re reading?As a feature to our notes, we are adding the book or books that we’ve browsed related to this episode…enjoy! Curt Parton — Until the Last One’s Found: An Introduction to Universal Reconciliation and RestorationEd.
