Title: Exceptional
Review: Edward Fudge has done a great service for God's people by carefully sifting through the relevant passages in the Bible to discern what is taught (and not taught) in God's Word concerning the end of the unredeemed. The most helpful chapter in the book for me personally was entitled, "Golgatha and Gehenna: Jesus' Death and the Punishment of the Lost." The Scriptures are not flat. There are some matters of more importance and others of less importance. There are some teachings that are central to understanding everything else. Surely there is no dispute that the heart of all Biblical revelation is found in the cross of Christ. Edward Fudge shows how Jesus' suffering and death shows us the end result of sin. Should one refuse to accept Jesus' atoning death they must endure the consequences for themselves. It is in the cross that we learn how horrible sin truly is, and by this understanding we realize how marvelous is the redemption made possible by the cross.
