Perhaps you missed the declaration Noli. The alert went out, how did you miss it?
From Him ta pavnte, through Him ta pavnte, for Him ta pavnte.
Yup: every day our God continues to lose those for whom He is the at-one-ment?
Wake up silly!
The polus made sinners are the identical polus made righteous.
Every last broken and bruised sinner!
So, is Jesus the Potential Savior of the World? Or the Savior of the World?
1 John 4:14
And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.
There have been no, zero, none refutations of my list of verses.
You claim that the verses I posted do not define.

Why does it concern you and other UR-ites that other Christians do not believe in UR? UR-ites are at this forum constantly posting their views, why don't they go off and talk to each other?
.....Greek is now, and has always been, the language of the Eastern Greek Orthodox church. Who, better than the native Greek speaking scholars who translated the Eastern Orthodox Bible [EOB], knows the correct meaning of Greek words, e.g. “Gehenna,””aionios” and “kolasis?”
…..In the EOB, pg. 180 there is this footnote.

Hades is the realm of the dead. The upper part of hades was considered to be luminous and it was called “paradise” or "Abraham's bosom.” Hades is not to be confused with hell (Gehenna) which is the final place of state or place of the damned (“the lake of’ fire”).
In the EOB Paul uses “αιονιον/aionon,” in 1 Tim 1:17 synonymous with “αιδιος/aidios” in Rom 1:20, see below.

In 1 Tim 1:17 Paul not only uses "aionon" synonymous with "aidios," in Rom 1:20, but also defines it by pairing it with "immortal" in the same verse.

No matter how many times this nonsense is posted it is easily refuted.The word punishment is from the Greek KOLASIS which means simply that - punishment. But it comes from the root KOLAZO which reveals the true nature of the punishment. KOLAZO according to Strong's Concordance, means "to curtail" or "to chastise". The word means "a pruning" according to Liddell and Scott's Greek English Lexicon. it is so used all through the Greek language. That punishment of which the Christ spoke was the very thing that helped me to see the glorious HOPE for all who are unbelievers or rebellious against God - because the word punishment there means chastisement or pruning. I saw in a moment that it was not the destruction of the man; it was the correcting of the man. it was not the destruction of the tree; it was the cutting back, and the pruning, that it might bring forth fruit. Some rightly reason that KOLASIS cannot mean corrective punishment or pruning if it is everlasting. But everlasting is itself wrong - who ever heard of EVERLASTING CORRECTION! It is age-lasting punishment, age-abiding correction, age-during pruning...
Not only do you love twisitng peoples Words, but now with your bold emphasis you have twisted God's Word to fir your agenda! That is a shame!
But Hebrews 6 shows there is a situation where it is impossible to restore one to repentance. HHMM?
Judgement, not hopelessness. Judgement, not no more chances for salvation. Judgement, not Love Omnipotent's love has expired like a carton of milk. Judgement, not the hand of the Almighty is impotent to save.
"Anyone who knows anything about the Greek of the New Testament (and elsewhere) knows that extraneous articles are used all the time, and that very frequently it’s not at all meaningful. (The converse holds true, too; and it’s the reason why you don’t see John 1:1c translated as “The Word was a god.”)"
"Then in the second part of the verse they *add* a definite article, ‘the’ in front of the word ‘judgement’. Why is this done? It isn’t hard to imagine that it is done to scare people into submission by convincing them it must be done before they die and it is too late."
"Looking at the most popular English translations, only KJV has “the judgment,” whereas NRSV, NIV, ESV, NASB, NET et al. don’t."
You should read past basic dictionaries and lexicons but learn etymology of words. Yes kolasis in its origin was a pruning (cutting off and destroying (See JOhn 15) but grew in time to mean punishment because it means a lopping off originally. No correction but destrution of the pruned material.
Pay attention Noli!
The declaration of every dimension EN/IN Christ Jesus is before us. The worship is NOT by perfunctory genuflections, but IN the Name of all names. It is NOT "at" the sound of His mighty Name!
Nope! Not according ot Gods Word! Maybe FL's Word but definitely not Gods Word as written.
Please tell me they did not graduate you (lol).
Bible Gateway passage: Romans 5:18 - New International Version
Not only graduate bible college- but have taught bible college for many years!
True but it is the form of judgment that is omportant anyhow! It is Krisis.
Now just show a verse that declares in the after life those who have been damned (krisis) have a chance to repent.
I see 2 Thess 2:10 which says you are wrong!
KOLASIS:
Are You of Israel?
And all you UR'ers have to do is show form scripture that the aionios kolasis is temporary and then why the aionions zoes is not !
It is worse than I imagined. It is worser than my pea brain can conceive, much much worser!
Another version of "I'm right and you're wrong! Am too! Nuh huh!"... None of the verses that anyone has posted refute universalism. They have all been addressed....
