“Between one group pronouncing the damnation of most of the world’s population and another preaching salvation for everyone, Kugler says, ‘Come, let us reason together.’ This book boldly enters the ‘Hell’ conversation, but it does so with patience and thoughtfulness. Ultimately, you won’t walk away with easy answers. But the value of Kugler’s work is in reminding us that the Holy Bible and Christian theology are about a personal God in relationship with flesh and blood creatures; theology is not a mathematical formula we are trying to get right. This book urges us to recognize that we need more than a concordance to think biblically and theologically about judgment and salvation. Kugler will comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable, all in about a hundred pages.”—Nijay K. Gupta, Julius R. Mantey Professor of New Testament, Northern Seminary

“Brief, clear, and well worth arguing with, Kugler’s book on personal eschatology is a deft intervention into recent discussions. At its heart is a survey of key biblical texts, and on its horizon is an exalted doctrine of God. Even readers who find a different path from here to there will learn much from Kugler’s crisp account.”—Fred Sanders, Torrey Honors College, Biola University

“What does the New Testament, read within Christian tradition, teach about the possibility of the salvation of all, as well as the possibility of eternal perdition? These are the questions at the center of this important study. Kugler’s work is conducted with clarity, charity to all, and a sense of historical and theological accountability to Scripture. A fine contribution, and one important to ongoing consideration and debate about the Last Things.”—Thomas Joseph White, OP, Rector Magnificus, Pontificia Università San Tommaso d’Aquino (Angelicum)
