Riassunto

Excerpt from Saving the World: What It Involves and How It Is Being Accomplished

This little book is neither a history of redemption nor a formal treatise on the plan of salvation. It makes no attempt to trace the revelation, through prophecy and providence, of the purpose of redemp tion; and there are many things connected with the plan of salvation that are not even touched in its pages. It aims simply to describe, comprehensively and yet scripturally, the great work of saving the world as it is being actually accomplished.

The two antipodal systems of Christian soteriology are Universalism and Calvinism. In logical concep tion, though not in formal presentation, these two sys tems approach the subject from precisely opposite directions. Universalism contemplates salvation as provided, and maintains that ultimately it will be as grandly realized as it is graciously proffered. But in the judgment of the great majority of Christians, it fails to support its teaching by a philosophy of sal vation that makes such an expectation reasonable, and to substantiate it with such proof from the word of God as to make it Scriptural. Calvinism contemplates salvation as finally accomplished, and presents a phi losophy of salvation that claims to explain the results that are ultimately reached. It must be conceded that it is very largely successful. Confessional Cal vinism presents a scheme of salvation which is clear.
