Barth, Origen, and Universal Salvation offers a bold new presentation of universal        salvation. Building constructively from the third- century theologian, Origen, and        the twentieth-century Swiss theologian, Karl Barth, Tom Greggs offers a defence of        universalism as rooted in Christian theology, showing this belief does not have to        be at the expense of human particularity, freedom, and Christian faith.Examining        Barth's doctrine of election and Origen's understanding of apokatastasis, Greggs        proposes that a proper understanding of the eternal salvific plan of God in the        person of Jesus Christ points towards universal salvation. The relationship between        the work of the Spirit and the Son in salvation is central to this understanding.          Universal salvation is grounded in the person of Christ as himself historic and        particular, and the Spirit makes the reality of that universal work ofChrist present        to individuals and communities in the present. The discussion includes creative        suggestions for the political and ecclesial implications of such a presentation of        salvation.
