I Believe In The Restitution Of All Things
--- Quote ---Through the Son God made the whole universe, and to the Son he has ordained that all creation shall ultimately belong.
--- End quote ---
--- Quote ---He has made known to us the secret of His will.
And this is in harmony with God's merciful purpose for the government of the world when the times are ripe for it--
the purpose which He has cherished in His own mind of restoring the whole creation to find its one Head in Christ; yes, things in heaven and things on earth, to find their one head in Him.
And you too, who in Him were made heirs, having been chosen beforehand in accordance with the intention of Him whose might carries out in everything the design of His own will.
--- End quote ---
Dr. Arthur Tappan Pierson -The Bible & Spiritual Life-
"This view (Restitution of All) is so clearly scriptural that the only surprise is that it has not been more definitely and widely held. It adds immeasurably, both to the glory of Christ as the coming King, and the Father as the former and framer of the ages. It is the period typified by the eighth day of the Mosaic Code: the perfect glory of Christ, reserved for 'the morrow after.' The millennial 'Sabbath.' And while the millenial period is limited to a thousand years, there are no definite limits to this final age of glory."
-Dr. P. B. Fitzwater- (Professor of Systematic Theology- Moody Bible Institute) Christian Theology P. 407
"Then there is the Universalist who declares that the redemption provided by Christ avails for the salvation of all men. This means that what God has done for the salvation of sinful men accrues to the benefit of all men. This view of Universalism is quite widespread. Many leaders in the evangelical church hold to this view, even though they have not dared to declare it."
From the Lutheran ELCA website......
The Christian hope for salvation, whether for the believing few or the unbelieving many, is grounded in the person and meaning of Christ alone, not in the potential of the world's religions to save, nor in the moral seriousness of humanists and people of good will, not even in the good works of pious Christians and church people. ... There is a universalist thrust in the New Testament, particularly in Paul's theology. How else can we read passages such as 'for as all die in Adam, so all will be made alive in Christ' (1 Cor 15:22)?" (See also Colossians 1:15-20, Ephesians 1:9-10, 1 Corinthians 15:28.) -Carl Braaten-
The universal scope of salvation in Christ
ELCA Lutherans will say with Braaten,
"Salvation in the New Testament is what God has done to death in the resurrection of Jesus. Salvation is what God has in store for you and me and the whole world in spite of death, solely on account of the living risen Christ. ... The universal scope of salvation in Christ includes the destiny of our bodies together with the whole earth and the whole of creation. This cosmic hope is based on the promise of eternal life sealed by the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. Through raising Jesus from the dead, God put death to death, overcoming the deadliest enemy of life at loose in the world. This hope for the final salvation of humanity and the eternal universal restitution of all things in heaven and on earth ... is drawn from the unlimited promise of the Gospel and the magnitude of God's grace made known to the world through Christ."

A Survey of Bible Doctrine" by Charles Ryrie, Professor of Systematic Theology: Dallas Theological Seminary.
In the section on future things, he dismisses the Restitution of all things which he refers to as "Classic Universalism" as unbiblical.
However
In his K.J.V. Ryrie Study Bible, which was published a few years after his doctrine book, he says a very interesting thing in his footnote on Colossians 1:20
--- Quote ---Col 1:20 .... to reconcile all things unto himself. Christ is the remedy for alienation from God, and eventually all things will be changed and brought into a unity in Him, even though this will involve judgment.

--- Quote ---God will seek us-- how long?
Until He finds us. And when He's found the last little shriveling rebellious soul and has depopulated hell, then death will be swallowed up in victory and Christ will turn all things to the Father that He may be all in all. Then every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. -Dr. Clarence Jordan-

Arthur C. Custance: Doorway Papers
Noah's Three Sons
--- Quote ---This Volume of five Papers is a bird's eye view of the world after the Flood, of how these three sons and their wives re-peopled the world, establishing (and destroying) civilizations and cultures as they spread over the earth. It is not a haphazard or chance occurrence for, when seen from the divine point of view, God has sovereignly ordered the unfolding of His purposes for the well-being of all peoples so that the complete potential of the human race might find full expression.
The basic thesis is that the tenth chapter of Genesis, the Table of Nations, is a statement about the origins of the present world population, and of how these descendants of the three brothers spread out over the earth. And it is further proposed that a division of responsiblities to care for the needs of man at three fundamental levels -- spiritual, physical, and intellectual - were divinely appointed to each of these three branches of Noah's family. History bears out the uniqueness of each of these racial stocks in a remarkable way. In these Papers is the evidence for the technological genius of Ham, the intellectual character of Japheth, and the spiritual qualities of Shem.
The interaction of these three contributions is the theme of this history. The final Paper is an exploration of the broader implications of the thesis, and of underlying causes (linguistic, cultural, etc.) that have led each branch to continue to make its unique contribution. Human potential reaches its climax when all three brothers jointly make their common contributions. Thus this three-dimensional view of human history gives insights into the manner in which God ordained that the full potential of the human race should unfold and find expression in the individual and in the nation.
Yet it is contended that if there is meaning to the universe, it is to be found in the birth and death of Jesus Christ, the Second Adam, that God might by a process of Redemption show forth His love toward the First Adam and his descendants whose very existences depend upon the creation of such a physical world. Man, then, is the key to the meaning of the universe.

Genesis & Early Man
--- Quote ---The current interpretation of human fossil remains challenges the biblical statements of man's origin. Yet the facts of these remains cannot be simply rejected. An alternative interpretation is here presented after examining what is known of man's early history, his culture, his intelligence, the factors which determine the shape of a skull and the validity of anthropological reconstructions and the origin of language, that unique faculty possessed by man alone. And a study of patterns of cultural behaviour help us to understand some incidents in Scripture.

Man In Adam & In Christ
--- Quote ---This book is both an anthropological and a biblical study of man as a child of Adam and as a child of God. It is a study of human nature and how it can and cannot be changed. Man suffers from a fatal disease, inflicted by Adam's fall in the Garden of Eden. To pretend that human nature has improved or is capable of improvement by natual means is the worst form of deception. But man has possibilities because he was once stamped with something the Scriptures call "the image of God".
Once this image is restored by an act of re-creation on God's part, there begins a new work: the formation of a personality pleasing to God. The result is that a man can be an entirely new creation in Jesus Christ, yet be recognizable as the same individual.

Evolution Or Creation?
--- Quote ---This Volume of Doorway Papers is on the subject of Origins, particularly the origin of the earth, of monotheism, and of man himself.
In dealing with the question of the age of the earth and how it came into being, four alternative views are presented with one being discussed in depth ("The Preparation of the Earth Before Man"). Two Papers show that the evidence does not support the evolutionary view in the matter of the origin of religion ("Primitive Monotheism and the Origin of Polytheism") and in the origin of Man ("Convergence and the Origin of Man"). One Paper ("The Survival of the UN-fit") demonstrates the irrationality of the evolutionary faith in the 'survival of the fittest'.
The final Paper, "Is Man an Animal?" is important because it shows that man is not merely quantitatively different from all other creatures, but qualitatively different ‹ these differences are discusssed in 6 chapters. The conclusion in the last chapter is that man was created a unique creature because he was to become a "house" for God Himself to be manifested in the flesh, and that this Incarnation really demands a uniqueness in the constitution of man which puts him in a category by himself completely separate from all other animal forms.

The Virgin Birth & The Incarnation
--- Quote ---This study is about the central message of the Christian faith: the redemption of mankind by the offering of the body of Christ, once for all. From data both scientific and theological, the author discusses some of the physical effects of the Fall of Adam from eating the forbidden fruit which then necessitated the Redeemer's virgin birth and incarnation, of why and how this Redeemer had to be both human and divine, and the physical aspects of the Redeemer's crucifixion and resurrection. Our redemption depends upon the kind of physical body possessed by both the First and the Last Adam. This study reveals how the Plan of Redemption determined just how God had to design mankind and even the very Universe for such an event.

Time & Eternity
--- Quote ---The Theory of Relativity has forever changed our concept of Time. everyone 'knows' that time, viewed objectively, began "in the beginning" and flows by with a past, a present, and a future until it ends "when time is no more". Time began, said Augustine, with creation. Time has no meaning or existence, said Einstein, apart from the physical universe.
So one asks, How much "time" was taken for creation? Did God work "slowly" or did He create it all in a moment of time? Would He create something and give it an appearance of age it didn't have? Is eternity an extension of time? Can time and eternity even be compared? And what will heaven be like without time?
Everyone 'knows' that time, viewed subjectively, is relative: it slows almost to a halt in suffering but speeds by in joy. This has a bearing on what happened on the Cross during those three hours of darkness.
