Herman Bavinck looms large as one of the nineteenth century's greatest Christian thinkers, contributing much to modern Reformed theology. Yet, despite his theological prowess, Bavinck was first and foremost concerned with being “a worthy follower of Jesus.” In this book, John Bolt―editor of the English edition of Bavinck’s four-volume masterpiece, Reformed Dogmatics―brings the great Dutch theologian’s life and work to bear on following Jesus in the twenty-first century, helping us see the direct connection between robust theology, practical holiness, and personal joy.

It is often said that “no one spoke more about hell than Jesus.” This book examines the words of the Savior of the World to see if that statement is true. What if the teaching that there is a place of never-ending punishment is the result of bad interpretations of things Jesus said? And what if the teaching that there is a “hell” was not passed on by the original disciples? Is never-ending torment consistent with what Jesus said about love and forgiveness?

This book will take you on a fascinating journey through the history of Christian thought. The journey includes surprising twists and turns as we navigate the three major views of hell in church history: (1) eternal conscious torment, (2) annihilationism (sinners will cease to exist), and (3) ultimate restoration (hell is an afterlife refinery leading all to repentance and faith in Christ). But this is much more than a tour through the underworld. This topic drives us to take a closer look at the Bible, Christian theology, and the character of God.

Dit boek laat zien dat de verhalen van de "historische Jezus" volledig zijn gebaseerd op het leven en de dood van de Egyptische farao, Twt / Tut-Ankh-Amen (Toetanchamon); en dat de "Jezus van het geloof" en de christelijke dogma's, allen een Egyptische oorsprong kennen - zoals de essentie van de leer/boodschap, evenals de religieuze feestdagen.

An uneasy spiritual sense has gripped many Christians; a profound sense that something is incomplete and disconnected within the body of church teaching; something elemental to our raison d’etre.
