Controversy Over Alleged Heresy

Bart Campolo sparked some controversy after publishing an article in "The Journal of Student Ministries" entitled [http://www.thejournalofstudentministries.com/articles/CampoloYS.pdf/ The Limits of God's Grace] . This article, which argues that God is not currently in control of the universe and that he will eventually utterly triumph over evil, was perceived as heretical by many in the evangelical community, most notably by Christianity Today, who drew comparisons between Campolo and Ivan Karamazov [http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2006/novemberweb-only/147-12.0.html]
