LoveGodsWord 1st I am not disagreeing with you ok :)

I know people "Jewish" that live in NY that never heard of Yeshua/Jesus Christ and that was the year of 2000. So how is the world to know/believe what you posted (BIBLE) is the real truth? Fallen angels, there is no salvation for them. They know the truth. Seen Him in all His glory and power.

Now we man have only known sin first. They say there are about 4,200 different Religions in the world. So God is going to hold the world accountable to what He said to Israel? Everything Christ said was to His own first. Each verse you/we post whats the context? To what or whom is it directed at.

We can just talk about "Christian" and I can put in all the names of which we all know and.. gonna say "I am right your wrong"? Walk into Israel and tell them we know their God better then they do? I could have just expanded greatly in all this but.. I think you get/understand what I am getting at here. Do we say its ONLY if you believe John 3:16, Rom 10:9-10?

What I say next is not proof of anything.. just to me it is. When I was about 15 I asked Him "how can you send all these people to hell?" And He came right back with "For God so loved the world. Everyone gets a choice". How that happens I do not know. But I do know.. everyone gets a choice. I believe few will be lost vs most. Well who says most won't be saved? MAN.

Why do you think He said these signs shall follow them that believe? Because no other religions/gods can do that. So doubt started over time and look where we are today. For me without that...how is your God any different then the rest? Trust me these real questions.

There is a reason why Christ is the only savoir. Christ said.. if you were blind you would have no sin. You say you see your sin remains. Most are blind. I pray I did not offend. If I did forgive me

Hi Blade nice to see you. Great question. As to your Jewish friends were they serious Jews or were they serious Jews mocking Jesus? I find it hard to believe if they were serious Jews that they had never heard of JESUS or Christianity but I could believe it if they were only Jews in name only and did not know their own religion and history.

According to the scriptures God only holds us accountable to what we know not what we do not know *Acts of the Apostles 17:30-31; James 4:17. Therefore if your friends never heard of Jesus or the Gospel they would not be held accountable to God for rejecting it. I believe that the scriptures teach that God has His people in every Church (including Israel) that are living up to all the knowledge that God has revealed to them *John 10:16.

In the days of JESUS and the Apostles their bible was the Old testament teaching of the Torah and the prophets (Hebrew bible). Jesus is revealed in these scriptures. In fact nearly everything we have in the new testamment scriptures come from the old testament. Together (the old and new testament scriptures) are the two great witnesses that make up the Word of God that point to Jesus and his work on our behalf and God's plan of salvation for mankind in the new covenant.

The hour is coming and now is that the "true worshippers" will worship God in Spirit and in truth. God is a Spirit and those who worship Him must worship him in Spirit and in truth *John 4:23-24. Everyone will have the chance to hear the Word of God. It is not until someone rejects the truth of God's Word that it becomes sin to that person and they are held accountable to God for their rejection of his Word (see Hebrew 10:26-27) abd they are judged for it on judgment day *John 12:47-48.

God bless.

Hi Tim, yes in order to quote/ reply to a portion of a comment here you need to highlight that portion with your mouse, then you'll see the options Quote/ Reply come up. Select Reply and it will automatically drop that highlighted section into your comment box, where your cursor is. You can then type your reply. repeat the process as many times as necessary until you see the light of UNIVERSAL SALVATION - Praise the Lord!



You're right, to say there's myriad Christian theologies is an understatement. I don't know of any churches that teach universal salvation, but I've been cast out from a few that don't. It has been noted by eminent scholars that universalism was the main soteriology/ eschatology of the early church. Gregory of Nyssa, Origen Adamantius and Clement of Alexandria were big name patristics who were all universalists.

Universalism/ restorationism can be a real challenge for those conditioned with the 'mindset' that only some (the elect) get saved and others (the many) are doomed. I feel blessed that I knew almost nothing of Christian doctrine at the time God opened the eyes and changed the heart.

God wants all mankind saved. He has the power to do it, through His righteous acts of grace and mercy. His enemies are spiritual, those forces that draw man away from Him, like sin the world and the devil. But He loves the world so as to send Jesus to save it from its own enslavement to sin and death. Sure, man has a choice, but fallen man will, like Israel, invariably choose unwisely. So a saviour is needed to free the slaves, liberate the captives, restore sight to the blind, raise the dead, heal the sick, make the lame walk...and so on. And what's more - his own people won't recognise him!

Jesus' mission is salvation. He is Salvation. The word of God is salvation. Jesus is the word made flesh. Salvation is the Omega plan, it's the destiny of all creation.

What does the Total Victory of Christ look like to you, Tim? Is it like a Roman triumph, where the vanquished kings and nations are forced to swear allegiance, waiting for a chance to rebel? Or is it greater, where the whole earth sees God's great and righteous works, the true gospel reveals the spirit, brings in faith, lifts the veil, and hearts and minds are transformed - every knee and every tongue, all sing in unison and eyes opened, 'give it up for God'!

Now that's a true and permanent victory - swords into plowshares, wolf lies down with lamb, rebellion overcome by love, death swallowed up in victory, trust and obedience given freely so as it was given us. All creatures loving Him as He loved us all first. Restored to His image. 'Behold', He says, 'I am making all things new'.

Doesn't mean it won't be a bitter pill to swallow for some. It could be the small scroll John eats in Rev 10:10 that tastes like honey but makes the stomach bitter. Those who refuse to repent through the Tribulation end up outside the ever-open Pearly Gates in the Lake of Fire, tormented in their evil mindsets, while the Spirit and the Bride encourage them, 'Come on, wash your robes in the lake and join us inside for the water of life, you're missing the good stuff!'

How long do you think they can hold out against full frontal assault of God's pure burning love presence that melts the heart and destroys the enemies, purifies the dross, burns away the tares? Who can stand? God has sworn an oath, remember. Even the Chief of Sinners was changed in a moment. Personally, I give the devil less than a week (noting time won't be the same in the new age when heaven and earth conjoin). So imagine that - when even the fallen angels repent in all truth and confess the name of Jesus! Dare to hope it may be so, my friend.

Shrewd, I thank you for your response to both my questions. I had never heard of universal salvation. Your explanation helps me to better understand your mind set, and those who hold to it. Thanks.

However, from your respective I'm wondering why you think Satan and one third of heavens angles were cast out of heaven for their rebellion. Why was Adam and Eve given a test of faith with regard to the forbidden tree? And why God would allow six thousand years of sin with all of it's unimaginable suffering on His creation, and in the end save everyone, those with faith, and those without faith? Why then is God allowing sin to rein from the time that He created the angles?

The trouble is when we go through each of these scriptures as we did earlier in another thread on "Universalism" none of them say that the unrepentant wicked receive everlasting life but the second death after the second coming.

God pledges that all will be saved.

The teachings of Universalism is at contradiction to the rest of the bible and over 87+ scriptures in the OP linked that show that the unrepentant wicked are do not receive eternal life but are destroyed in the second death in the lake of fire.

No, you're just reading in the wrong sense. The 'destruction' scriptures relate to the stage of 'dying to self' and 'burning away dross' in order to purify and make anew. Bible's about His Salvation, in case you didn't notice.

Universalism contradicts the teachings of the bible and teaches the false doctrine that was first given to Eve in Eden from GENESIS 3:1-5.

It's appointed to each man to die once, then the judgment, when all will be raised, some to enduring life, others to contempt. But ultimately all will hear the gospel and confess faith, and God will be all in all.

Shrewd, I thank you for your response to both my questions. I had never heard of universal salvation. Your explanation helps me to better understand your mind set, and those who hold to it. Thanks.

And thank you for considering my poor reply, Tim. I hope it encourages you to explore universalism further.

However, from your respective I'm wondering why you think Satan and one third of heavens angles were cast out of heaven for their rebellion.

I don't think universalists would see any exceptional reasons for this. God casts out the enemies. But we believe ultimately the spiritual enemies are destroyed/ overcome, and all of fallen creation is restored to God's image.

Why was Adam and Eve given a test of faith with regard to the forbidden tree?

Because God requires us to have faith in order to have a relationship with Him. And we believe all will eventually come to faith, whether in this life or the hereafter. Salvation and inheritance are not the same. There are many mansions.

And why God would allow six thousand years of sin with all of it's unimaginable suffering on His creation, and in the end save everyone, those with faith, and those without faith?

He saves all by faith. The truth is that man's heart bears the manufacturer's name. Is this seen in John 9:3, when Jesus explains to the disciples why the man was born blind?

Jesus answered, "It was neither that this man sinned, nor his parents; but it was so that the works of God might be displayed in him.

Or at Calvary, from the depths of evil and blindness comes the greatest of all victories. This pattern is everywhere in the Bible. Only God can make something from nothing, and that inspires us with love faith and hope.

When the knowledge of God and His righteous acts is revealed to unbelievers through the gospel and the Spirit, the heart changes. Being born again is a work of God, for man it's involuntary, beyond his ignorant fallen nature. When someone actually 'looks to Christ', and receives what Jesus Christ did for the world at Calvary, they're transformed by a spiritual revelation.

So Revelation teaches that, for those who still refuse to come to Christ after all the tribulations and the battle of Armageddon, they need to be immersed in God's pure unadulterated passionate committed true love (the lake of fire, the power of heaven). All enemies are destroyed, resistance overcome. See, God's justice saves, it's righteous because it 'sets right', not 'gets even'. So who can stand in the day of the Lord?

The universalist 'mindset' (as you call it) requires a change of gear from a literalist, materialist partiality to an acceptance of the absolute value of God's qualities and great promises.

Correction. God pledges that all who believe and follow his Word will be saved and calls them His Saints *John 3:16; Ephesians 2:8; John 10:26-27; Matthew 7:21-27. According to the scriptures God's salvation is conditional on believing and following God's Word *John 10:26-27; Matthew 7:21-27 (more scripture support here linked) and his invitation of salvation from sin and eternal life is only for our lifetime before the second coming *2 Thessalonians 1:7-9. According to the scriptures, those who continue in known unrepentant sin are destroyed in the second death in the lake of fire *Revelation 21:7-8 because they reject the free gift of God's dear son and count the blood of the covenant an unholy thing *Hebrews 10:26-31; more scripture here on the fate of the unrepentant wicked

Your response here...

Actually no it doesn't dear friend but here is why. The context of these scriptures all provided to you is in the destruction of the unrepentant wicked with the unrepentant wicked being God's "adversaries" *2 Thessalonians 1:7-9 and "enemies of the cross of Christ" *Philippians 3:18, and God's "vengence" on the "wicked" *2 Thessalonians 1:8 being "destroyed" *2 Thessalonians 1:9, "consumed" *Isaiah 1:28; Psalms 37:20; Psalms 104:35 and "devoured" (no more) *Hebrews 10:27.

The context here is to destruction and the second death in the lake of fire *Revelation 21:7-8 because the unrepentant wicked reject the free gift of God's dear son and count the blood of the covenant an unholy thing *Hebrews 10:26-31; more scripture here on the fate of the unrepentant wicked


Further proof is provided in over 87+ scriptures in the OP linked showing that the unrepentant wicked are destroyed and do not receive eternal life and do not enter into God's kingdom *1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Matthew 7:21; John 3:3-7; 1 John 3:6-10;

The destruction of the the unrepentant wicked is also shown in the very words of JESUS when he tells us what will happen to them at after the second coming and uses the examples of when the unrepentant wicked world was destroyed by a flood and Sodom and Gomorah by fire as examples of what will happen to the unrepentant wicked who receive the second death (not eternal life) in the lake of fire *Revelation 21:7-8 because they reject the free gift of God's dear son and count the blood of the covenant an unholy thing *Hebrews 10:26-31; more scripture here on the fate of the unrepentant wicked.

Your denying God's Word dear friend with your words that are not biblical. Universalism contradicts the teachings of the bible and teaches the false doctrine that was first given to Eve in Eden from GENESIS 3:1-5.

Hope this is helpful.

God, who is the God of salvation, swears by Himself. He alone is the beginning and ending of a process in three dimensions of past, present & future.

He, the Isous of salvation, is NOT a potential Saviour with an if here & an if there.

"God IS the Saviour of ALL mankind, especially those who believe/ trust in Him. Command and teach."

Indeed dear Fine, God is indeed the Saviour of all mankind. Sadly not all mankind will choose to receive the gift of God's salvation. Please read post 127 linked
Time to leave the gambling lady of second chances dear Fine (Universalism) as this is the same lie told Eve in the garden of Eden *Genesis 3:1-5 when the devil told Eve you can disregard God's Word and commandments and not surely die. Universalism is the gambling lady of second chances when there is no second chance after the second coming for those who deny God's Word and break his commandments.

Hope this helps

There you go taking my post out of cotext. The rest of my post went on to say According to the scriptures and very sadly, not all mankind will choose to receive the gift of God's salvation. Please read post 127 linked. Time to leave the gambling lady of second chances dear Fine (Universalism) as this is the same lie told Eve in the garden of Eden *Genesis 3:1-5 when the devil told Eve you can disregard God's Word and commandments and not surely die.

According to the scriptures God's salvation is conditional on believing and following God's Word *John 10:26-27; Matthew 7:21-27 (more scripture support here linked)

Yes, and God has already sworn an oath that everyone will be saved (Isa 45:23, Rom 14:11, Phil 2:10). That means everyone will come to believe. Believing is a requisite for being saved.


and his invitation of salvation from sin and eternal life is only for our lifetime before the second coming *2 Thessalonians 1:7-9.

The vengeance is precisely the destruction of the Adamic man, the rebel. The death of the old man and the resurrection of the new man in Christ. This is the work of the cross. Death is swallowed up in victory.

According to the scriptures, those who continue in known unrepentant sin are destroyed in the second death in the lake of fire *Revelation 21:7-8 because they reject the free gift of God's dear son and count the blood of the covenant an unholy thing *Hebrews 10:26-31; more scripture here on the fate of the unrepentant wicked

How can they continue in known unrepentant sin? Most don't know God and therefore have no idea they're sinning. The many are blinded by pride and self-righteousness. Go tell a heathen he's a sinner, he'll look at you like you're from outer space. Because they don't know what they can't know. Only God can open eyes. 'My people are perishing for lack of knowledge'. This is why the true gospel is so important, rather than the false 'accept God or burn in hell' message.

Actually no it doesn't dear friend but here is why. The context of these scriptures all provided to you is in the destruction of the unrepentant wicked with the unrepentant wicked being God's "adversaries" *2 Thessalonians 1:7-9 and "enemies of the cross of Christ" *Philippians 3:18, and God's "vengence" on the "wicked" *2 Thessalonians 1:8 being "destroyed" *2 Thessalonians 1:9, "consumed" *Isaiah 1:28; Psalms 37:20; Psalms 104:35 and "devoured" (no more) *Hebrews 10:27.

I think this is our main point of difference. I can understand how you might think that God's enemies are flesh and blood, but I believe Jesus reveals that they are spiritual - the powers and principalities. So God takes aim at sin, death, the world etc. Why? Because He's saving creation from the disease that's infected it.

The context here is to destruction and the second death in the lake of fire *Revelation 21:7-8 because the unrepentant wicked reject the free gift of God's dear son and count the blood of the covenant an unholy thing *Hebrews 10:26-31; more scripture here on the fate of the unrepentant wicked

We've been over Hebrews 10 before and you don't want to accept that it refers back to Deut and Exodus passages which don't support your thesis. The reality is that the Jews to whom the message is addressed weren't giving up the assurance of heaven they got in Judaism for a risk of hell under Christianity. That's no way to persuade ppl to leave the old religion behind.

Further proof is provided in over 87+ scriptures in the OP linked showing that the unrepentant wicked are destroyed and do not receive eternal life and do not enter into God's kingdom *1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Matthew 7:21; John 3:3-7; 1 John 3:6-10;

And until you accept that I FULLY AGREE that the UNREPENTANT WICKED are DESTROYED, we'll never get anywhere. But they are destroyed as a step towards salvation. That's why God promises all will be saved, sends Jesus to save all and Jesus is the Omega.

Your denying God's Word dear friend with your words that are not biblical. Universalism contradicts the teachings of the bible and teaches the false doctrine that was first given to Eve in Eden from GENESIS 3:1-5.

Sorry, universalism gives full credit to God, it honours His desire and power to do as He wills, which is to SAVE THE WORLD.

Sorry, universalism gives full credit to God, it honours His desire and power to do as He wills, which is to SAVE THE WORLD.

We must be reading a different bible. Mine says that the unrepentant wicked are destroyed with the second death in the lake of fire and do not enter into God's Kingdom or receive everlasting life. Proof is provided in over 87+ scriptures in the OP linked showing that the unrepentant wicked are destroyed and do not receive eternal life and do not enter into God's kingdom *1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Matthew 7:21; John 3:3-7; 1 John 3:6-10.

Your reply here is a good example of not applying context leading to false interpretation of scripture, but let me show why dear friend.

Earlier you were provided 87+ scriptures in the OP linked which all have context to the unrepentant wicked who are destroyed and do not receive eternal life and do not enter into God's kingdom *1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Matthew 7:21; John 3:3-7; 1 John 3:6-10. Then we have other supporting scripture already provided to you from 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9; Hebrews 10:26-31; Matthew 25:41-46; Revelation 21:7-8; John 3:36; Revelation 20:6; John 5:28-29 all of which provide context directly to the unrepentant wicked after the second coming.

We can even add the very words of Jesus when he tells us what will happen to the unrepentant wicked after the second coming when he uses the examples of when the unrepentant wicked world was destroyed by a flood and Sodom and Gomorah was destroyed by fire to show us what will happen to the unrepentant wicked who receive the second death (not eternal life) in the lake of fire *Revelation 21:7-8 because they reject the free gift of God's dear son and count the blood of the covenant an unholy thing *Hebrews 10:26-31.

Now we compare the above scriptures provided here, which is over 100+ scripture all with context to the fate of the unrepentant wicked and what happens to them after the second coming.

Yet in response you provide verbal refence to Romans 6 which is not in context to the unrepentant wicked after the second coming but to the saved righteous dieing to the old man in baptism and living in newness of life in Christ? Perhaps it is time to re-read Romans 6 again which is not talking about the unrepentant wicked but is in context to the Saint walking in newness of life with Christ and no longer practicing sin through faith in Christ. This is something that the wicked do not do and do not practice. The unrepentant wicked are unrepentant of their sins and do not walk in newness of life in baptism with Christ.

Finally which one of the scriptures that you have provided say that the unrepentant wicked receive eternal life after the second coming when over 100+ scriptures say that the unrepentant wicked receive the second death and are destroyed in the lake of fire and do not receive eternal life and do not enter into God's kingdom?

Time to leave the false teachings of Universalism dear friend. It has its' origin in the first lie told to Eve in the garden of Eden in Genesis 3:1-5. Do you know what it is?

Hope this is helpful.

Finally which one of the scriptures that you have provided say that the unrepentant wicked receive eternal life after the second coming when over 100+ scriptures say that the unrepentant wicked receive the second death and are destroyed in the lake of fire and do not receive eternal life and do not enter into God's kingdom?

The scriptures say nobody will be unrepentant in the end. Everybody will repent and believe. The nations get saved. That's the POWER OF GOD. If you want most ppl annihilated, just go outside see what the devil's up to in the world right now.

Or do you say God reneges and welches on His promises and duds us all? Like Michael Bolton - 'I told you that I loved you, but I LIED'. If someone's blundering towards a cliff, you do everything in your power to save him.

Hey everyone, good news of glad tidings for all mankind - you're all gonna die (except for a few pharisee types).

Where's the logic, where's the sense? It's pathetically insane to posit a sovereign God of love who presides over a destiny of death and destruction for the many. If that's your idea of the Heavenly Kingdom, I want no part in it.

Will be made new. BEHOLD!
Not according to the scrpture. Your twisting them to make them say things they do not mean in isolation of context as shown earlier. According to God's Word not mine and as shown in the OP here the unrepentant wicked are destroyed in the second death in the lake of fire after the second resurrection. All things are made new for the Saints.

Read this The Shocking Truth: Jesus Died For Our Iniquity - Amos Ministries, it is very interesting. Let me know your views.
Hi Pat, I had a quick look but do not have time to read all through this. Simply though iniquity in the Hebrew means sin and sin is defined in the bible as breaking anyone of Gods' 10 commandments and also not believing and following Gods' Word *1 John 3:4; James 2:10-11; Romans 7:7; Romans 3:4; Romans 14:23. According to the scriptures, sin and repentance from sin is the difference between the children of God and the children of the devil *1 John 3:6-10; Revelation 12:17; Revelation 14:12; Revelation 22:14. What was your thoughts and what did you get out of reading that article?

God bless.

Where has anyone written such things and where does it say that in the bible?

The scriptures say nobody will be unrepentant in the end. Everybody will repent and believe.

Where does it say that the unrepentant wicked after the second coming will repent and believe and receive everlasting life (scripture please)? This would be a contradiction of over 100+ scriptures already provided stating that the unrepentant wicked receive the second death and are destroyed in the lake of fire. If you have no scripture how can you make these claims?
