That All Shall Be Saved: Heaven, Hell, and Universal Salvation is a 2019 book by philosopher and religious studies scholar David Bentley Hart published by Yale University Press. In it Hart argues that "if Christianity taken as a whole is indeed an entirely coherent and credible system of belief, then the universalist understanding of its message is the only one possible."[1] Hart has described the book as a supplement to his The New Testament: A Translation published also by Yale in 2017.[2] The title is an allusion to the scriptural statement in 1 Timothy 2:4 that God "intends that all human beings shall be saved."[3] The book was published also as an audiobook narrated by Derek Perkins in 2019,[4] and a paperback edition containing a new preface was released in 2021.[5]
