The Other Side of the Good News by Larry Dixon

In a time of Christian confusion and evangelical erosion, Jesus' teaching about the destiny of the wicked needs to be emphasized. Is there a biblical doctrine of hell or are Christians free to hold a variety of viewpoints on this issue? In this book Larry Dixon examines many of the current theories on hell and encourages the reader to take the Bible's teaching on Hell as seriously as Jesus Christ did in order to tell people the Good News that we know so that they won't spend eternity on The Other Side of the Good News. Dixon looks at three alternative views to the traditional doctrine of hell, universalism, annihilationism and post-mortem conversion. In the last chapter he asks "Does it make any difference what view Christians hold about the Other Side?" and "Can there be alternative positions within the church?"

'In a climate where universalism is very fashionable in churches and seminaries, DrDixon stands forthrightly in support of the traditional orthodox doctrine of endless conscious punishment.'

-- Roger Nicole ((1915-2010) Professor of Theology, Emeritus, Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando, Florida)

'Respectfully interacts with opponents and writes in a manner that is atonce attractive, passionate accessible to ordinary believers.'

-- Robert A. Peterson, Covenant Theological Seminary (Theologian, editor, and co–author, ‘Jesus In Prophecy: How Christ’s Life Fulfills Biblical Predictions’)

A thoughtful, provocative, and fair-minded treatment of a controversial theme in Christian doctrine.

-- Thomas Oden, Drew University Graduate and Theological School

'Larry Dixon has addressed a topic which is of great current importance . . . This is a book which every serious student of the Bible and theology must read'.

-- Millard J Erickson. Distinguished Professor ofTheology at Baylor University's Truett Seminary (Distinguished Professor of Theology, Western Seminary, Portland, Oregon)
