| Résumé: | The vexed and ever-controversial question of hell and the possibility of its final realization is the subject matter of this article.

The article argues for a retention of the doctrine, albeit shorn of some of its more flamboyant, traditional attributes, as being of lasting significance to the Christian understanding of salvation. |
