    Universal reconciliation

    "And there are not "many plain scriptures throughout the Bible" that God will save "all men." .................. There are a great many such scriptures, but it would be a waste of my time to give them to YOU. Ive learned that passive aggressive attacks like " how many semesters of...

    ... shall not perish but have life for an aeon ...

    Ill say it a third time..... the verse in Hebrews has NO repeating...... just the plural noun for ,properly, (eons) . And the comment about using google translate for koine greek was a joke.... but even the most oblivious can easily see the plural form. Literally "into the eons."...

    ... shall not perish but have life for an aeon ...

    ... shall not perish but have life for an aeon ...

    I said that aion is used as a plural noun in the nt. Not that it repeats. It is a plural noun. If i were arguing the repeat "ages of the ages" its the same usage as "king of kings."

    ... shall not perish but have life for an aeon ...

    Basically, if you weed through all the copypaste, you are still going to have to admit that since "aion(on)" which is the plural of aion is used. Aion cannot mean eternity, because there are no such thing as eternities. And it only takes me 4 lines to destroy your entire argument....

    ... shall not perish but have life for an aeon ...

    It changes everything when you undetstand the framework of the ages.... in titus and timothy there is a reference to the "space" prior to the eonian times or ages. Paul also talks about the "consummation." The end of the ages. "In the age to come", " in this present age"... "for the ages of...

    who or what is the Devil, Satan, that old serpent, the great dragon?

    He works for God. Obviously authority has to come from God and revelation explains the timeframe when the adversary will be bound..... So God uses him for his intended purpose for a time period

    Eternal Fire SAVES not TORTURES

    actually, if Jesus died and potentially saved none, then he died in vain. the relationship is the same for us with both the first and second Adam.

    Eternal Fire SAVES not TORTURES

    being "saved" is a general term..... saved from what? a hurricane? I try to stick to the particulars like: God will rouse all from among the dead, death will no longer exist, God will reconcile all unto himself, the ages will no longer exist after their consummation so the adjective...

    Eternal Fire SAVES not TORTURES

    Why can't God destroy the man also??? then rebuild him? Is it beyond God to completely destroy our carnal mind and rebuild it whith his?

    Eternal Fire SAVES not TORTURES

    what is the "end?" end of what? The problem is that there are (eons) referenced in the word- as on (aionon)(plural form of aion), Aionon ton aionas (eons of the eons). and phrases used like (in the aion to come) or (in this aion). There are many "ends" of several aionon; this is undeniable...

    So... God ALLOWS you to choose to be tortured forever?

    Do you think there is a difference with the "wicked" and those of us who constantly sin...? Is sinning the same as "doing evil?" i am just asking because I hope I am not rejected- although I believe in universal reconciliation there is a period of chastisement that will not be pleasant... I...

    So... God ALLOWS you to choose to be tortured forever?

    2nd thes. 1:6-7 "-a display of the just judging of God, to deem you worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering also,if so be that it is just of God to repay affliction to those afflicting you, and to you who are being afflicted, ease, with us, at the unveiling of the lord...

    So... God ALLOWS you to choose to be tortured forever?

    I did not choose to sin in Adam. I did not choose to be born. I did not choose to be born to my parents. I did not choose to be raised the way I was..... btw- please provide an example of these people who are apparently "wishing" to end up being tortured in Hell forever.... or is that just...

    So... God ALLOWS you to choose to be tortured forever?

    I am also a new father, but unlike God we do not know the future and are also not in charge of making laws, creating punishments, or judging... If i actually knew 100% that a child would be born and end up being tortured forever- it would logically be better and more humane to just abort it...
