Apocatastasis

[PussyCat]

A [restoration] to the original condition. A name given to the theological belief that a time will come when all free creatures will share in the grace of salvation, even the [devils] and lost souls. According to this [dogma], the reason hell exists is to separate good from evil in the soul. It is therefore not an eternal punishment, but an amelioration. A time will come when all evil shall cease to be, since it has no existence of its own apart from the free will.
