Ah yes, Universalism. Did Jesus give His life as a ransom for all, or just many? Matthew 20:28 “Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.” Mark 10:45 “For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.”
Did Christ shed His blood for all? Mark 14:24 “And he said unto them, This is my blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many.”
Is the promise of eternal life given to all? Acts 2:39 “For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.” (God does not call all men.)
Was all mankind ordained to eternal life? Acts 13:48 “And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.”
Did Christ bear the sins all mankind? Hebrews 9:28 “So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”
Will all the children of Israel turn to the Lord their God? Luke 1:16 "“And He will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God."
Will all enter heaven the only way Jesus provided, through the narrow gate? Luke 13:24 "Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able."
John 17:2 “You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him." Jesus has authority over all flesh but eternal life will only be given to as many as God has given to Jesus.
If Christ gave His life a ransom for "all", if Christ shed His blood for "all", if the promise of eternal life is given to "all", if "all" mankind is ordained to eternal life, and if Christ bore the sins of "all" then "all" has had the ransom paid, all had Christ's blood shed for them, eternal life will be given to "all", and Christ bore the sins of "all" then "all" will go to heaven. Agnostics, God haters, unbelievers, Buddhists, Satan worshipers, atheists, will have no problem gaining entrance to heaven if you believe in universalism. Never mind that Jesus said that the goats in Matthew 25:41 will not make it! "Then He will also say to those on the left hand, (the goats) ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels."
Only those who say that God's supreme attribute is love believe in the lie of universalism. God is love but He is also just. To allow "all" into heaven is not just.
