PREFACE It is only recently I have come across the strong proponents of Eternal Conscious Tormenting in Hell for those who do not accept Jesus as savior, here and now. These people were so fully convinced of this to the extent, they consider those who do not so believe are not even saved and are condemned to this hell. This of course follows from the Athanasian creed. They even goes to the extent of saying that if the ECT is not true it is an insult to cross of Jesus. God is portrayed as a sadist who is bent upon revenge, just to keep up His holiness to burn His children in Gehenna to Molech - the Lord of justice. This of course in direct opposition to all that we have been told right from Sunday School times that God is Love and this is what is expressed in the cross. I was brought up in the Syrian Christian Church in Kerala based on the Eastern Theology where the ultimately all children of Adam will be saved in Christ, not necessarily in this age but in the ages to come so as both the love of God and the Freedom of Man is maintained.. Just like all the Orthodox Churches and the Churches of East, the early Church at least until fifth century AD believed in the final coming home of the wildest prodigals - even Satan. They are all part of the body of God. The arguments are based on the meaning of the words translated as eternal and hell. I have quoted voluminously from authoritative sources to establish my understanding. My own understanding of Christian monotheism, with its only possibility of the Cosmos and every created being as part of the body of God and within Him will necessitate an ultimate healing of all sick organs within God since there is nothing outside of God. Otherwise God Himself will be suffering the eternal conscious torment within His own body. Jesus is the victor, Love never fails. Cross is the ultimate sign of love through which ALL will be restored as Jesus has promised. Even if it requires ages to come Love will ultimately triumph and Satan himself will come home to God, his Father. 2 Corinthians 3:17-18 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit. In that process, the elect - the Church - forms the body of Christ. But this is only the beginning. Each in its order, in its own time. But Victory belongs to Love whose nature is to give and to die for the loved. I may be a heretic to many denominations. But the revelation of Jesus about Our Father and His Father and the Father's nature demands these conclusions. 1 Corinthians 15:22 "As in Adam ALL died, so also in Christ ALL will be made alive." 2 Peter 1:4, "For by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust."
