Nonsense you did not address any of the content that lead to the conclusions. You simply bypassed the content that lead to my conclusions and did not address them because the content demonstrated context that prove the conclusion I made. All you did was repost the some post without addressing any of the content in the post that prove the context you left out.As you can see from my post #1474 it was in response to your conclusion remarks. The rest of your post just seems like a mass of scripture quotes with some scribbling leading to nothing i could see in support of your endless annihilation view. I'd suggest rewriting it. As for the following it addresses the false notion that Heb.10:26 denies universalism by the words about no more sacrifice for sins:
Nonsense. Repetition again that says no where that all the unrepentant wicked will be saved. JOHN 1:29 is in reference to JOHN the baptist message that JESUS is the lamb of God whose sacrifice is for the sins of the world. It does not say anywhere that all the world will accept the gift of God's grace. Your interpreation of the scriptures here is unbiblical. The rest of your post here is addressed in detail in post # 1436 linked here. Your just repeating yourself dear friend and cutting and pasting and reposting the same content over and over spamming this thread without addressing any of the posts that prove why you are in error.No more sacrifice for sins applies to those forgiven as well:
Heb.10:18 Now where there is forgiveness of these things, there is no longer any offering for sin. (NASB)
Heb.10:18 But where there [is] remission of these, [there is] no longer a sacrifice for sin. (DBY)
Heb.10:18 and where forgiveness of these is, there is no more offering for sin. (YLT)
The meaning is not that if they sin they can't be forgiven. They can (1 Jn.1:9). The same applies to those of v.26. So your argument is a failure.
The meaning of no more sacrifice for sin is that Christ's sacrifice ended all sacrifices for sin. There are no more. There will be no more.
His sacrifice is sufficient to take away everyone's sins & that is exactly what it will do:
John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
Taking away the world's sin (Jn.1:29) shall make the world sinless. So, yeah, all will be saved.
Your response here...LoveGodsWord said: ↑ The post you are quoting from proves what you are claiming in this post is false. No one has said to you anywhere that if someone sins they cannot be forgiven.
Hmm and why is that when you were trying to make a strawman argument to say my post was saying that no one can receive God's forgiveness if they sin when I posted HEBREWS 10:26-39 as reference scriptures to show what happens to the unrepentant wicked not the repentant that return to God? Seems pretty relevant to me if your trying to make claims and accusations no one is making dont you?That's besides the point. So irrelevant.
Your response here...LoveGodsWord said: ↑ HEBREWS 10:26-39 was posted simply to show the fate of those who continue in known unrepentant sin
No problem,Show me a verse where you think it denies universalism in Hebrews 10 & why.
HEBREWS 10:26-39
[26], FOR IF WE SIN WILLFULLY AFTER THAT WE HAVE RECEIVED THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH, THERE REMAINS NO MORE SACRIFICE FOR SINS,
[27], BUT A CERTAIN FEARFUL LOOKING FOR OF JUDGMENT AND FIERY INDIGNATION, WHICH SHALL DEVOUR THE ADVERSARIES.
[28], He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
[29], OF HOW MUCH SORER PUNISHMENT, SUPPOSE YOU, SHALL HE BE THOUGHT WORTHY, WHO HAS TRODDEN UNDER FOOT THE SON OF GOD, AND HAS COUNTED THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT, WITH WHICH HE WAS SANCTIFIED, AN UNHOLY THING, AND HAS DONE DESPITE TO THE SPIRIT OF GRACE?
[30], For we know him that has said, Vengeance belongs to me, I will recompense, said the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
[31], IT IS A FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF THE LIVING GOD.
Note the above in context and those scriptures highlighted in red? Now the context here is the UNREPENTANT WICKED. Those who have turned away from Gods Word when they have been given a knowledge of the truth in order to live a life on known unrepentant sin.
PAUL states in v27 that those who continue in known UNREPETANT SIN will receive the JUDGEMENTS OF GOD and that those who continue in known UNREPENTANT SIN are GOD'S ADVERSARIES and that these ADVERSARIES (ENEMIES OF GOD) who reject His Word will receive the judgement of FIERY INDIGNATION AND WRATH which will DEVOUR them.
The Greek Word used here for DEVOUR from...
BDAG: DEVOUR ἐσθίω (Hom.+) and, mainly in the ptc., ἔσθω (Hom., also in other poets, rare in prose [Plut., Mor. p. 101d]; Coan ins, III B.C.: RHerzog, ARW 10, 1907, 400ff; 23; 27; 42; POslo 153, 15 [beg. II A.D.]; PGiss 80, 5; ostraca [BGU 1507, 14; 1508, 3; 4: III B.C.]; LXX; En 98:11 [?]. ἔσθων Lev 17:14; 1 Km 14:30; Sir 20:17; Mk 1:6; Lk 7:33f, 10:7 [the three last v.l.]; μὴ ἔσθετε Lev 19:26. ὅταν ἔσθητε Num 15:19. ἵνα ἔσθητε Lk 22:30. B-D-F §101; W-S. §15; Mlt-H. 238; Schwyzer, I 704 n. 1). Impf. ἤσθιον; fut. ἔδομαι LXX (Mel, P. 12, 80; 13, 83; 93, 697; 1 Cl 39:9; 57:6); 2 aor. ἔφαγον, w. extension of 1 aor. endings (B-D-F §84, 2; Rob. 333; cp. Schwyzer I 753f): 3 pl. ἐφάγοσαν Ps 77:29, 1 pl. ἐφάγαμεν 2 Km 19:43; fut. φάγομαι (B-D-F §74, 2; Mlt-H. 238), 2 sing. φάγεσαι Lk 17:8; Ruth 2:14 (W-S. §13, 6 and 17; B-D-F §87; Mlt-H. 198); pf. pass. ptc. acc. ἐδηδεμένους (Ath., R. 52, 20); pres. 3 sg. ἔσθεται Lev 11:34; Dt 12:22.
② to do away with completely, fig. extension of mng. 1 (Hom. et al.; LXX) consume, devour (of fire Il. 23, 182; Is 10:17; 26:11) πυρὸς ἐσθίειν μέλλοντος τ. ὑπεναντίους fire, which is about to consume the adversaries Hb 10:27 (Is 26:11). ὁ ἰὸς … φάγεται τ. σάρκας ὑμῶν ὡς πῦρ the rust will eat your flesh like fire Js 5:3 (cp. Aeschyl., Fgm. 253 φαγέδαινα [an ulcer] σάρκας ἐσθίει ποδός; Is 30:27 ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ θυμοῦ ὡς πῦρ ἔδεται). B. 327.—DELG s.v. ἔδω. M-M. EDNT. TW.
So DEVOUR used in HEBREWS 10:27 means and the wicked will be ended and done away completely. Do these scriptures in HEBREWS 10:25-31 sound familiar? They should as the same fate of the wicked are outlined here...
2 THESSALONIANS 1:6-10
[6], SEEING IT IS A RIGHTEOUS THING WITH GOD TO RECOMPENSE TRIBULATION TO THEM THAT TROUBLE YOU;
[7], AND TO YOU WHO ARE TROUBLED REST WITH US, WHEN THE LORD JESUS SHALL BE REVEALED FROM HEAVEN WITH HIS MIGHTY ANGELS,
[8], IN FLAMING FIRE TAKING VENGEANCE ON THEM THAT KNOW NOT GOD, AND THAT OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST:
[9], WHO SHALL BE PUNISHED WITH EVERLASTING DESTRUCTION FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD, AND FROM THE GLORY OF HIS POWER;
[10], WHEN HE SHALL COME TO BE GLORIFIED IN HIS SAINTS, AND TO BE ADMIRED IN ALL THEM THAT BELIEVE BECAUSE OUR TESTIMONY AMONG YOU WAS BELIEVED IN THAT DAY.
Note the link between HEBREWS 10:26-27 and 2 THESSALONIANS 1:8-9? Both are to the unrepentant wicked that do not know God. Both receive God's vengence. Both receive firey indignation from God which will devour or destroy them; bring them to an end and do away with them completely by fire. These scriptures also link to the second death of the wicked here...
REVELATION 21:7-8
[7], HE THAT OVERCOMES SHALL INHERIT ALL THINGS; AND I WILL BE HIS GOD, AND HE SHALL BE MY SON.
[8], BUT THE FEARFUL, AND UNBELIEVING, AND THE ABOMINABLE, AND MURDERERS, AND FORNICATORS, AND SORCERERS, AND IDOLATERS, AND ALL LIARS, SHALL HAVE THEIR PART IN THE LAKE WHICH BURNS WITH FIRE AND BRIMSTONE: WHICH IS THE SECOND DEATH.
Note dear friend the fate of the wicked agrees with HEBREWS 10:26-27 and 2 THESSANIANS 1:8-9 above. The fate of the wicked is everlasting death, in the lake of fire with the devil and his Angels *MATTHEW 15:41. There is no third resurrection of the unrepentant wicked and no scriptures to show this is there?
Now you know why....
Hope this helps.
