Inhaltsangabe

Is there coming a time of universal restoration and reconciliation in which all things will be restored? The author believes there will come such a time and shows just how he believes this will be done in the future. The author takes issue with those who teach and preach about a place called "hell" where those who reject Christ will spend eternity in abject misery and torment, forever suffering the terrible agony of a fire that will not, and cannot, be quenched. Pastor Hawtin believes that the Scriptures really teach that there is coming a time of universal restoration and reconciliation in which all things will be restored, whether they be things in heaven, things in earth or things under the earth? He points out how certain words have been misunderstood where "a few inconsistencies in translation crept in". He explains: Many Christians fail to realize that no translation of the holy scripture is inspired. Only the original writings by the apostles and the prophets were inspired. Since, then, the original writing was done in Hebrew for the Old Testament and Greek for the New Testament, all translating into the multitudes of other languages has had to be done by learned scholars of Greek and Hebrew, and these for the most part have done a masterful work." Because of this, it stands to reason, there will be certain instances where the Bible may seem inconsistent at times. And, to deal with this problem Hawtin suggests that "everyone who considers himself a student of God's word should . . . Purchase a good concordance such as Young's or Strong's and learn how to use it". Pastor Hawtin goes to great lengths, and in great detail, to explain the true meaning of the words hell, fire, brimstone, eternal, everlasting, for ever and ever, the second death and others, in order to show how these words have been misunderstood by most Christians for centuries.
