About the book

The fate of those who have never heard the gospel has become a dialogue-provoking topic in recent years. Evangelical writers such as Clark Pinnock, Edward Fudge, and John Sanders as well as non-evangelical thinkers like Carl Rahner, John Hick, and Paul Knitter have offered nontraditional positions on the subject. How Shall They Be Saved? offers an astute examination of the various perspectives and a solid explication of the key issues surrounding the debate. Part 1 delineates the array of positions -- including liberal, Catholic, and Protestant stances -- taken on the destiny of the unevangelized. In part 2 the author probes the critical issues, including the role of general revelation, the possibility of salvation after death, the requirements of salvation, the number of the redeemed, and the problem of annihilationism. In the final part, Erickson tackles two practical areas: (1) the fate of those who die in infancy and others who do not reach the age of accountability and (2) how the subject of the destiny of the unevangelized affects evangelism and missions. - Back cover.
