The Problem of God's Goodness

If God is all-knowing and all-powerful and does not save all, then God is not all-good. The logic of this statement is hard to avoid, and it exposes a deep problem which faces Western Christianity. Fortunately, an older and better theology of universal restoration lies behind what became the Western Christian tradition. This theology was advocated by prominent early Christian leaders and it is now enjoying a well deserved revival of interest. In this theology God is good, and grace saves all.
