Concerning Hell

IVP Academic, 2027

United in their commitment to faithful orthodoxy, scholars on both sides of this controversial doctrine invite you to consider a question central to understanding God's justice: What is the true nature of hell? Throughout history, most Christians have believed that the lost will endure eternal suffering in hell. In recent decades, however, a growing number of evangelicals have questioned this view and embraced alternatives such as conditional immortality (also called conditionalism or annihilationism). In this first-of-its-kind volume, respected Christian scholars lay out the case for both sides of the debate and engage in a multidisciplinary dialogue. Proponents of eternal conscious punishment and conditionalism argue from their respective expertise in biblical theology, exegesis, historical theology, systematic theology, philosophy, and pastoral theology. Each scholar then responds directly to his specialist counterpart, allowing readers to thoughtfully evaluate the strengths and nuances of each case. What you'll find in Concerning Hell: Explores this highly debated doctrine with thoughtful clarity and charitable engagement Gives voice to the leading advocates for both eternal conscious punishment and conditionalism Pairs experts within specific fields to engage with nuanced scholarly evidence and arguments Nurtures understanding and mutual respect between diverse theological views Equips readers to analyze the evidence and draw informed conclusions Ultimately, the editors and contributors invite Christians to reconsider assumptions and seek truth in light of Scripture, reason, and the character of God.
