A thorough, detailed account of the questions many Christians and non-Christians have asked for hundreds of years: do our good works save us from hell, are we saved by the grace of God, or some combination of those two factors? How has the answer to this question changed from the Old Testament era to the New Testament era? Is there more than one way to be saved from eternity in hell? The sermons and writings of scholars from many denominations have helped the writer identify and sort through many of the conflicting ideas about eternal life. Denominations of Christianity all differ on a wide range of doctrinal issues while basing their beliefs on the same scriptural evidence.
