241 - The Bible Teaches Universalism (w/ Lance Haverkamp)

Summary: Lance is a minister with the Christian Universalist Association. Founded in 2007, the Christian Universalist Association comprises of individuals, churches and para-church ministries who teach what they refer to as the overwhelming historical and scriptural evidence that all people are reconciled to God as revealed in the life, death and resurrection of Christ Jesus. According to the association, for most of the Church’s history, there has been a mistaken belief in a retributive God who will punish unbelievers with endless torture. This error has poisoned the behavior of generations of believers into being retributive to others. Jesus taught us that we love God by loving our neighbors and enemies. Just as Jesus taught, we strive to promote restoration of relationships, with each other, and with God, rather than retribution. I had a lot of questions.
