Description

Complete your study of Christian afterlife theology with Purgatory: The Logic of Total Transformation. Published by Oxford University Press, this work serves as the final piece in a theological trilogy, following Hell: The Logic of Eternal Damnation (1992) and Heaven: The Logic of Eternal Joy (2002). In this volume, Walls provides a deep examination of the doctrine of purgatory. He outlines the theological reasons behind the concept and tracks how it has developed throughout Roman Catholic history. Beyond the Catholic perspective, the book addresses Protestant viewpoints, specifically looking at objections regarding scriptural basis. You will also find an analysis of Protestant Reformed and Wesleyan alternatives to the traditional doctrine. As a study of the intermediate state between death and resurrection, this book offers a comprehensive look at how different traditions understand the soul's journey. It is an essential resource for students of religion and theology seeking a complete picture of the Christian views on the afterlife.
