The Restitution Of All Things

“It is not a matter of if, only a matter of when each individual will respond to the irresistible call of God’s love – a love filled with such peace and calmness that no one will be able to withstand its comfort indefinitely.

The power of God’s love will attract like a magnet everyone to their safe consolation within the confines of reconciliation. This, my dear friends is what ‘God being All in all’ is all about. The happy tidings are that none will be eternally lost or destroyed.

When the Holy Spirit’s vision arrives within us, then and only then will we be able to grasp the fact that God’s love does not contain the words ‘eternally lost or destroyed’ in its vocabulary.” -Anthony J. Borrell-

That is what a real saviour does!

The Restitution of all things is not a new idea. If you go to the beginning of this link, you will discover it has been in the earliest Church history.

The following are a few of the ladies in the past few hundred years who have grasped the Hope of all hope.

Madeleine L'Engle

L'Engle was Episcopalian and believed in Christian universalism, which insisted that everyone will ultimately be saved by God. She meditated on religious issues in such books as And It Was Good: Reflections on Beginnings (1983). L'Engle also worked at St. John the Divine in New York City as a librarian and writer-in-residence for more than three decades.

Anne Bronte

One of the three famous Bronte sisters, Anne is remembered for being the most pious. Before she died from tuberculosis at the tender age of 29, Anne admitted to a faith in universalism, as the following poem and letter testify.

A Word to The 'Elect'

You may rejoice to think yourselves secure;
You may be grateful for the gift divine -
That grace unsought, which made your black hearts pure,
And fits your earth-born souls in Heaven to shine.

But, is it sweet to look around, and view
Thousands excluded from that happiness
Which they deserved, at least, as much as you, -
Their faults not greater, nor their virtues less?

And, wherefore should you love your God the more,
Because to you alone his smiles are given;
Because he chose to pass the many o'er,
And only bring the favoured few to Heaven?

And, wherefore should your hearts more grateful prove,
Because for ALL the Saviour did not die?
Is yours the God of justice and of love?
And are your bosoms warm with charity?

Say, does your heart expand to all mankind?
And, would you ever to your neighbor do -
The weak, the strong, the enlightened, and the blind -
As you would have your neighbor do to you?

And, when you, looking on your fellow-men,
Behold them doomed to endless misery,
How can you talk of joy and rapture then? -
May God withhold such cruel joy from me!

That none deserve eternal bliss I know;
Unmerited the grace in mercy given:
But, none shall sink to everlasting woe,
That have not well deserved the wrath of Heaven.

And, oh! there lives within my heart
A hope, long nursed by me;
(And, should its cheering ray depart,
How dark my soul would be!)

That as in Adam all have died,
In Christ shall all men live;
And ever round his throne abide,
Eternal praise to give.

That even the wicked shall at last
Be fitted for the skies;
And, when their dreadful doom is past,
To life and light arise.

I ask not, how remote the day,
Nor what the sinners' woe,
Before their dross is purged away;
Enough for me, to know

That when the cup of wrath is drained,
The metal purified,
They'll cling to what they once disdained,
And live by Him that died.

--Anne Bronte (1843)

Florence Nightingdale

Theology

Nightingale was a Christian universalist.

On 7 February 1837 – not long before her 17th birthday – something happened that would change her life: "God spoke to me", she wrote, "and called me to His service."

Hannah W. Smith

The Unselfishness of God and How I Discovered It (the missing chapters)

"Nothing can separate you from His love, absolutely nothing, neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature... We do not need to beg Him to bless us, He simply cannot help it. Therefore God is enough! God is enough for time, God is enough for eternity. God is enough!" -Hannah Whitall Smith-

Clara Barton (Founder Red Cross)

Although not formally a member of the Universalist Church of America in a 1905 letter to the widow of Carl Norman Thrasher, she identified herself with her parents' church as a "Universalist".

My dear friend and sister:

Your belief that I am a Universalist is as correct as your greater belief that you are one yourself, a belief in which all who are privileged to possess it rejoice. In my case, it was a great gift, like St. Paul, I "was born free", and saved the pain of reaching it through years of struggle and doubt.

My father was a leader in the building of the church in which Hosea Ballow preached his first dedication sermon. Your historic records will show that the old Huguenot town of Oxford, Mass. erected one of, if not the first Universalist Church in America. In this town I was born; in this church I was reared. In all its reconstructions and remodelings I have taken a part, and I look anxiously for a time in the near future when the busy world will let me once more become a living part of its people, praising God for the advance in the liberal faith of the religions of the world today, so largely due to the teachings of this belief.

Give, I pray you, dear sister, my warmest congratulations to the members of your society. My best wishes for the success of your annual meeting, and accept my thanks most sincerely for having written me.

Fraternally yours, (Signed) Clara Barton.

The Restitution of All Things, Andrew Jukes

The Author & Finisher is working to meet & correct some awful fall.

There are a number of Scriptures that speak of Abba's essence. His essence is NOT a characteristic, it is what He is!

"God IS Love"

It is NOT what He does. It is what He is in essence.

All characteristics of His great Being flow in absolute at-one-ment.

"Our God IS Fire."

It is not an aspect of Abba, it is His essence from which His characteristics flow in perfect harmony.

Welcome to our God the Katesthió Pur!

The Outcasts Comforted

Reconciling Conflicting Convictions on the Sovereignty of God and the Freedom of Human Beings: Three Centuries (16th-18th) of Baptist Universalism | Mercy Upon All

A friend of Winchester’s in 1778 brought the English edition of The Everlasting Gospel to Welsh Neck, Winchester became more and more convinced of universalism. Later Winchester would make contact to the German Baptists of Germantown and he would write the foreword for a later edition of The Everlasting Gospel which he published in London in 1792.

Salvation For All

“The traditional interpretation of an everlasting hell fire for sinners is as wrong and as senseless as believing that a three dollar bill is legal tender.

Ultimate salvation is something that has been secured by Christ for all mankind without the works of man (either good or bad) being involved in the issue.

Everyone will finally be saved and brought to a full knowledge of the truth of God. All humans will finally be forgiven for their sins and they will become reconciled to God. All things in the heavens, on earth and under the earth (the angels who are kept in chains in the bowels of the earth) will one day proclaim the Lordship of Christ to the glory of God the Father.

But it will not only be all humans who are reconciled to God (now that God has reconciled Himself to mankind). The reconciliation will reach out to embrace all the hostile powers which have been out of harmony with God over the centuries. There is prophesied, according to Paul, a full reconciliation between all the antagonistic beings throughout the universe. Even they will be reconciled amongst themselves, between themselves and mankind, and between themselves and God the Father (Col. 1:20). All grievances, both divine and human, are disposed of through the life and death of Christ our Saviour.

Peace has been, or will be established between all hostile parties throughout the universe." -Ernest L. Martin-

Saint Steven said:

Opponents claim that we are saying God will "torture" people to turn to him against their will. Ironic when they believe that God will either torture for all eternity with no hope of escape, or incinerate them. Which is somehow "more humane", since they were not forced against their will. (which we are not claiming anyway) smh

Saint: I know of no way into the Father but by being drawn to Him. It begins not with us, the draw begins in Him where it ends in Him, the Author who is destined to be the Finisher.

Those sillies who think the Father of all fathers has the slightest inclination to do anything short of being dearest Daddy, need to draw their heads closer to His Heart.

Our God is the God of restoration.

The koine katallage signifies not atonement (at-one-ment) but reconciliation.

Katallage means to restore to an unimpaired position of conciliation, literally to bring into accord & harmony.

Our God is bringing His creation back to at-one-ment!

Saint Steven said:

It occurred to me while reading your post (another one of those pesky visual images in my mind) that... Jesus said he would make his disciples "fishers of men". And while the tendency is to view evangelism as being decision-driven, that is certainly not the picture here. Fish are not caught as an act of their own will. In fact they will fight to get away once being trapped in a net, or caught on a hook. The fisher will draw them into the boat, or out of the water against their will.

I wonder if the Damnationists (and Annihilationists) think that evangelism should be a "catch and release" program? - lol

Fish have been known to jump out of the water into boats of their own free will. Maybe that would account for the low numbers expected by our opponents.

Click to expand...

Perhaps the catch and release program should be begun for all those wascally wascals! Their dismal numbers will at the minimum have fisherman who know the elements of good fishing practices. The dumb fish will by their own free will learn not to jump into the boats!

Good grief, Saint, you must get back to work before driving us bonky, for F.L. = bonkier.

If God's Love is
Unconditional, Then...

If God's love is unconditional, then all the promises of God are also. As God loves unconditionally, so He promises unconditionally. Conditionalism belongs to the administration/economy of the law. Under that administration God's promises of blessing were conditioned upon obedience. As an aside, do we really believe re: any and all instances of the if-thou-shalt-I-will arrangement within the law paradigm, that God didn't know in advance that Israel would not live up to its part of the arrangement? The law has to do with proving that whatever demands are externally-imposed upon a person (e.g. the law given by Moses) will expose that person's inability to perform what is required.

Harry Robert Fox labeled that arrangement a bilateral covenant, i.e., man is required bilaterally to come up with his side of the bargain, whereas, in stark contrast, the new covenant/arrangement is a unilateral one: unilateral, as in, "I (Jesus) and the Father are one."

The new covenant was set in motion by the agreement within Godness alone.

No other outside opinion, vote or contribution has a place...NONE. The Son agreeing with the Father (the Son's agreement drawn forth by the power Father's love) is the very constitution of the new covenant, which covenant existed before the law was given, continued as a hidden thread throughout the time of the law's imposition, and on into the ages of the ages, and the age of the ages.

The law was interposed or interjected as a presence of contrariety, of opposition, even enmity, toward the essential posture of God toward man. That contrariety inevitably serves to highlight by contrast, the glory of God's grace. When man is induced, through any externally-imposed moral and/or ethical requirement, to attempt to perform in a way pleasing to God, his autonomous impotence is exposed. The experience of failure is necessary to the existential realization of being those who "always triumph in Christ Jesus."

It has not escaped my observation that whenever God has granted me any victory, any triumph, any success, it has followed failure that cast me upon his grace. There can be no deep experience of grace without failure, and it is not unlike God to set us up for even the most egregious, abysmal, failure in order to prove Himself to be the God of mercy and grace to us. With those presuming to be reckoned righteous by God on the basis of their performance, their failure lies in believing such a fundamental deceit.

I believe we can be sure that even with such examples of sterling character like Enoch, Daniel, Joseph, Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego, that if we could sit with each of them, and hear their story, they would share with us what the biblical text does not get into: that they were prepared for their courageous, exemplary acts of obedience to God by some previous experience when their own vanity was exposed. Scripture does not inform us of that doubtless part of their full experience, for their story is meant to be a type of the believer's ultimate victory over the world, the flesh, and the devil.

I know I have alluded many times in my writings and preaching, that "where sin abounds, grace doth much more abound," that is, it super-abounds, but it's such an important principle that I won't apologize for reminding my fellow believers over and over again of that truth, alongside, "for those who are forgiven little, love little," with the converse: those who are forgiven much, love much. A conscience filled with a sense of guilt, of being the object of God's angry disapproval, becomes the most terrible prison from which Jesus came to set us free: "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed me to...."announce freedom for prisoners..." (CEV). After a period, even after the Lord had called me to Himself, I found myself in such a solitary confinement. He came, spoke freedom to me, my shackles fell off, the prison door opened, and I walked out free. It's hard to tell someone what the following stanza of a hymn meant to me after that experience:

Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature's night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray,
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light.
My chains fell off, my heart was free;
I rose, went forth and followed Thee.
My chains fell off, my heart was free;
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee. -John Gavazzoni-

The master plan of Abba is a long range plan of bringing everything & everybody together into Him with nothing, absolutely nothing exempt from His rule.

He is supreme in the beginning, He is supreme in the end!

All broken & dislocated pieces of the universe fixed in vibrant harmony.

Hello bros. I know I haven't been around for a while and that is the new, new for me. Spending lots of time online as a doctor following which lie bait being swallowed by the fish. Personally, I still haven't put on a mask and fear neither the Pandemic OR the Dampanic. But I'm certainly spending more time pressing in to a closer walk with Father, Son, Spirit.

Keep promoting the FAITH and TRUTH you are so passionate about.

My dear brother: you will forever (not age lasting) hold a special place for me. You giving 1/2 your wealth to me is still overwhelming. When my puny faith said "no way" regarding a brother in arms, we shall not name, you stood with the faith of Christ.

This unprecedented time of upheaval calls for us to make unprecedented reach for Him, our glorious One!
