Jesus the Carcass and the Wicked God is the book with the message of the time. It reveals to you what you have never thought of or imagined. It helps open up your mind and eyes to see what it means to have a rotten system, a decaying living humanity, a stinking church, and a general untrustworthiness of man. In this book, there’s nothing hidden in parables, proverbs, metaphors, or such likes. Things are straightforward and in simple language. Have you ever thought of Jesus being a carcass yet you know he lives forever or of God being wicked yet you know how good he is all the times? Can you, at any time, challenge God, your creator, and term the holy books as rubbish? Just imagine Judas Iscariot being your savior, yet you have a good background on how he betrayed Christ. Just explore what you have never seen before!

A stunning reexamination of one of the essential tenets of Christian belief from one of the most provocative and admired writers on religion today “A scathing, vigorous, eloquent attack on those who hold that that there is such a thing as eternal damnation.”—Karen Kilby, Commonweal The great fourth-century church father Basil of Caesarea once observed that, in his time, most Christians believed that hell was not everlasting, and that all would eventually attain salvation. But today, this view is no longer prevalent within Christian communities. In this momentous book, David Bentley Hart makes the case that nearly two millennia of dogmatic tradition have misled readers on the crucial matter of universal salvation. On the basis of the earliest Christian writings, theological tradition, scripture, and logic, Hart argues that if God is the good creator of all, he is the savior of all, without fail. And if he is not the savior of all, the Kingdom is only a dream, and creation something considerably worse than a nightmare. But it is not so. There is no such thing as eternal damnation; all will be saved. With great rhetorical power, wit, and emotional range, Hart offers a new perspective on one of Christianity’s most important themes.
