“Those of the Church Fathers who espoused universal salvation were moved to do so not only from the conviction that this was the testimony of scripture, but also from the radical notion that, when we say that God is love or call him Father, we are not just spouting pious nonsense, but are saying something both logically coherent and necessarily true. Keith Giles has no purpose in these pages but to demonstrate how right they were.”

“Citing scripture, ancient Church leaders, and contemporary biblical scholars, Keith Giles makes a compelling case against hell. What makes this book especially winsome is the accessible way Giles writes. The conversation is easy to follow and arguments compelling. This book is both an encyclopedic resource and conversation starter!”

“Keith Giles’ Jesus Undefeated is indeed the perfect introduction to the idea that all shall be saved. Simply written without suffering from too much brevity, the author not only puts forth a convincing case that Universalism should be accepted at the theological table, but that it is perhaps the most likely answer to the question, ‘Who then shall be saved?’”

“Jesus Undefeated reveals an early church corpus who, through their common sense and sacred intuition, knew what we moderns seem to have so inexplicably forgotten. They corporately knew God far too well to believe Him capable of ever creating such a bone-torturing Hell...This lie needs to fry. And Keith, as a master conceptual chef, does just that in his wonderful new book which I heartily recommend.”

“If we’re to ever begin extinguishing the unbiblical flames of eternity in hell, it will require a resolute movement of those who care more about rediscovering the restorative heart of God for all people than perpetuating the man-made fiction of a retributive monster god that burns the unrepentant in an unquenchable fire. And that is exactly what Keith Giles does in this important and timely book.”

“Keith, in a very readable fashion and conversational tone, reexamines the idea of the afterlife and demythologizes the concept of hell, all with a thorough application of the Bible, the Church Fathers, and theologians. But what I like most about his work is that it comes from a big heart motivated by love to include all. And isn’t this the thrust of the gospel?”

“I was so happy to receive a preview copy of Jesus Undefeated, and discover that the early views of the church [about Hell] were not what we might imagine. Rather than defending certain beliefs, Keith examines all three views of Hell precisely and accurately so the reader can make up their minds based on the evidence. To me, this book will be a standard from now on!”

“This book is incredible. I think this may be Keith’s best work to date. I’m going to need multiple copies to give out to so many who are looking beyond pat answers on questions of eternal punishment.”
