HABAKKUK 2:14 For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. (NIV)
Everyone will praise the glory of the Lord as all of creation will be saved through Him.
That ain't what Hab 2:14 or any other vs. in Habakkuk says.
Habakkuk 2:6
(6) Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
Habakkuk 3:6
(6) He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways are everlasting.
Habakkuk 3:12-13
(12) Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.
(13) Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah.​

ZEPHANIAH 2:11 The Lord will be awesome to them when he destroys all the gods of the land. The nations on every shore will worship him, every one in its own land. (NIV)

Everyone in their own land worshipping Him means that everyone on Earth, in each land that exists on this planet, will receive salvation!

Yes! But there ain't no lands or nations in the grave or hell.

as he promised long ago through his holy prophets
This is true. The Lord has promised to save everyone, and has told this truth through all of His holy prophets. The Almighty Lord always tells the truth, thus this will always remain true.

EZEKIEL 18:23 Have I any desire, says the Lord God, for the death of a wicked man? Will I not rather that he should mend his ways and live?

God has zero desire at all for the death of the wicked. The wicked will all be saved, not destroyed, not tortured endlessly. God hopes to save the whole world through His only son, Jesus Christ, and God’s hopes and desires are always fulfilled. Their ways will be mended by giving them the Holy Spirit, that is, making them believe in Christ Jesus with faith alone, so that all of their sins will be washed away. God hates sin, thus He created this way to remove all sin. Like a person who has a house cleans dirt, they will clean all the dirt from their house, they will not destroy their house, because they created the house, and that would be a waste. The Lord does not waste, rather He fulfills.

Anybody can make the Bible say almost anything by quoting selective vss. out-of-context.
Ezekiel 5:10-11
(10) Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of thee, and the sons shall eat their fathers; and I will execute judgments in thee, and the whole remnant of thee will I scatter into all the winds.
(11) Wherefore, as I live, saith the Lord GOD; Surely, because thou hast defiled my sanctuary with all thy detestable things, and with all thine abominations, therefore will I also diminish thee; neither shall mine eye spare, neither will I have any pity.
Ezekiel 5:12
(12) A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of thee: and a third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and I will scatter a third part into all the winds, and I will draw out a sword after them.
Ezekiel 5:14
(14) Moreover I will make thee waste, and a reproach among the nations that are round about thee, in the sight of all that pass by.
Ezekiel 5:15
(15) So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment unto the nations that are round about thee, when I shall execute judgments in thee in anger and in fury and in furious rebukes. I the LORD have spoken it.
Ezekiel 6:5
(5) And I will lay the dead carcases of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.
Ezekiel 6:8
(8) Yet will I leave a remnant, that ye may have some that shall escape the sword among the nations, when ye shall be scattered through the countries.
Ezekiel 7:2-3
(2) Also, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel; An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land.
(3) Now is the end come upon thee, and I will send mine anger upon thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways, and will recompense upon thee all thine abominations.
Ezekiel 8:17-18
(17) Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.
(18) Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.
Ezekiel 9:6
(6) Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.
Ezekiel 14:7-8
(7) For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to a prophet to enquire of him concerning me; I the LORD will answer him by myself:
(8) And I will set my face against that man, and will make him a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel 15:7
(7) And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.
Ezekiel 17:16
(16) As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely in the place where the king dwelleth that made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he brake, even with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.
Ezekiel 18:24
(24) But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.

ZEPHANIAH 3:8-9, 15, 17, 19-20 I have decided to assemble the nations, to gather the kingdoms and to pour out my wrath on them-all my fierce anger. The whole world will be consumed by the fire of my jealous anger. Then will I purify the lips of the peoples, that all of them may call on the name of the Lord and serve him shoulder to shoulder .... The Lord has taken away your punishment... he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love ... I will ... gather those who have been scattered ... At that time I will gather you; at that time I will bring you home. (NIV)

God scattered everyone after the Tower of Babel collapsed and language was created, but through Christ, everyone will be saved, put together into one land, God’s land. All of them will be gathered in the home that is Heaven, the city of New Jerusalem, with a tree in the center with leaves for the healing of all nations!

I dedicate this entry towards thanking the Lord of Hosts.



I have been praying to the Sovereign Lord every day for the past year regarding this struggle and now I have finally overcome it today, as of December 28 2022, thanks to the Almighty Lord.

1 Thessalonians 5:18 Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.



For privacy reasons and for the safety of my family, I cannot name this struggle. However, I can indeed say that it was a very great struggle. I have been struggling against it for over a year. It’s been extremely brutal and difficult.

2 Samuel 7:28 And now, O Lord God, you are God, and your words are true, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.



As I type this, I just heard one of my family members cheer out loud. They are also aware of this struggle, which has affected us all, though me the most in particular. I thank the Holy Spirit for helping keep my family safe.

Nahum 1:7 The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him.



Knowing that it’s over feels like a huge weight has come off my shoulders. While this is not the end of struggle in general, as that will persist as long as sin exists in general, it’s a huge relief for me and my family.

Psalm 145:9 The Lord is good to all, and his mercy is over all that he has made.



While this is a season of blessing, there can also be seasons of hardship. And in all seasons, I give thanks to God for saving us all. I greatly appreciate You, Jesus Christ, for being my best friend through it all :) And as well, all who read this, the blessings of love from The Son go on to all of you too, as He is all your friend too. <3

1 Thessalonians 5:18 Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.



And, as a reminder, Christ will save everybody in the world, a happy ending for everyone. Have faith in the Saviour of all humanity!

Luke 3:6 All flesh shall see the salvation of God

ZECHARIAH 13:9 This third I will bring into the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. (NIV)

Like a blacksmith who hammers iron until it takes a desired shape, it’s not hammered away forever, or else the end result will be nothing. God is like that blacksmith, He molds us, like a potter with clay, to what He wants out of us. Everyone will receive salvation.

There ain't no us there Amigo. Only one third.
Zechariah 13:8-9
(8) And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.
(9) And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God.​

MALACHI 1:11 In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to my name. (NIV)

Every place, meaning every person meaning all are saved. This name is the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ, the name above all names. They are offering these things to Him because they have been saved by faith alone.

I don't think so.
Malachi 4:1
(1) For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
Malachi 4:3
(3) And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts.​

MALACHI 3:2-3 Who can endure the day of his coming? Who can stand when he appears? For he will be like a refiner's fire or a laundress's soap. He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver, he will purify the Levies and refine them like gold and silver. Then the Lord will have men who will bring offerings in righteousness. (NIV)

All people will be brought to righteousness, all will be saved.

The answer is still no. Malachi does not say "All people will be brought to righteousness." Mal 3:2-3 refers only to the Levites.
Malachi 4:1
(1) For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

MALACHI 3:6-7, 10 "I the Lord do not change. So you, 0 descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed ... Return to me, and I will return to you," says the Lord Almighty..."Test me in this," says the Lord Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it." (NIV)

God’s blessing will be so amazing that we’ll be totally filled in awe over His salvation of everyone.

Totally incorrect! Applies only to "descendants of Jacob, " NOT all mankind!
Malachi 3:6-7
(6) For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
(7) Even from the days of your fathers ye [sons of Jacob] are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you [sons of Jacob], saith the LORD of hosts. But ye [sons of Jacob] said, Wherein shall we [sons of Jacob] return?​

Genesis 22:18 All nations on earth will be blessed through Abraham’s offspring.
All nations will receive God’s blessing of salvation.
That ain't what Genesis 22:18 says!
