Résumé :
Incarnational Universal Reconciliation or Restoration is taught in this book. John 3:16-17 says God so loved the world that he sent his Son to save the world, not just some out of it as many teach.God's Son incarnate sanctified our sinful human nature and redeemed us from sin and death. The penalty of death has already been paid for, but will only be removed at Christ return. In Christ, mankind could be brought back to spiritual life through faith and from physical death at the resurrection and judgment,Three times the Scriptures tell us that the church is the first fruits of all Creation. The first fruits imply that a greater harvest will come at the end of the church age and Second Coming. This is when Christ will consummate the kingdom when all mankind will have been brought to faith and repentance. Christ will then hand the Kingdom of Heaven on earth over to the Father and God will be all in all....
