The Apostle Peter Confronted with Universal Salvation

[@shirahsheartbeats]

I am dancing out of joy...and praising our Creator. I still have a lot of barriers and my mind brings a lot of anti-salvation of humanity...but the joy and the freedom I find now hearing this thing is the same when I first believed in Christ. I was overwhealmed by love and forgivness and ..pure pure perfect love..but because of the whole context of christianity that i was in..many teachings were suffocating this joy and peace and love..and I did not know why. I was literally dying more and more inside because of the mainstream christianity doctrines..and I was wondering why..if I have the spirit of Christ in me why am I like this? I was so depressed and tormented and crying days and nights for the..unbelievers. and I couldn't understand why many christians don't seem to be so ..sensitive like me. how can we be at peace with eternal hell? and even eternal death? if we cannot be at peace..how can our good Creator be? ...the answer must be: He will not be at peace until He puts everything under the feet of His annointed one, the holy human, Yeshua..everything means everything. and we will be one. and God will be with us..and in us. finally...as He planned...oh, how tragic was the experience of the fall for humanity..how painful..no words. may the God of Israel, the one who resurrected Yeshua from the grave, open our eyes and release us from fear and fill us with his everlasting love and heal us..so we can heal others with the love that we receive through Yeshua..shalom

[@lc2077]

I am so happy for you! I totally feel that too. This is the most joyous gospel. I have no idea how anyone who believes in eternal conscious torment has any peace or joy. It would seem impossible to me.

[@shirahsheartbeats]

@@lc2077 ⚘ thank you. i think i was mostly bipolar before. like believing and rejoicing there is forgivness and eternal life..and then falling into the torture of the idea of an eternal torment. horror...

[@dylanclark9871]

I was wondering Shira heartbeat how you are doing now?. Has God confirmed universal salvation to you? Do you feel that was the joy of the Lord that you felt when you heard this video - like He was confirming U.S by giving you the same feeling as when you were born again? You're testimony intrigues me so I was just wondering where you are now in your journey? Thanks

[@shirahsheartbeats]

@@dylanclark9871 thank you. for asking. i definetly do not want to intrigue anyone...but, i can understand what you mean. for me it's a subject that is done. i have peace like never before, a peace that no doctrine or mind stuff can shake it any longer. i might not know how, when, etc..but i know that god is love and love wins. not with battle and force, but...by revealing itself and transforming. everything. eventually. i do struggle with life, you know? i need huge restoration for the years i suffered as a child and teenager, then as a rebellious young adult and then..as a follower of Christ..trying to discern which way is actually his way. I was very wounded in faith walk because of some teachings..maybe because I was already wounded and with trauma? I do not know. So, yea..my life is still with ruins, but the inside..i praise God for the peace and confidence and love that really goes beyond anything I can think with this tinny mind of mine..may peace fill you and may your questions be answered. and..whatever your conclusions will be, it is ok. i believe everyone is where he/she needs to be. for growing and learning and being perfected and made whole..inside out. shalom 🙏🦋

[@dylanclark9871]

Thank you Shira. Your testimony of Universal Salvation may be the most convincing one I've read - and I've been searching out people's testimonies for years. I was wondering if you could share how you came to Christ - like if you said the sinners prayers or an alter call or whatever it was - any information would be appreciated as that would help put my mind at ease knowing that it was a true conversion. I like you had a profound experience when I was born again but over the years I have doubted if I still was saved, or if I ever was maybe. But I think you're testimony might be the one that convinces me that U.S is the Truth.

[@edengarden6811]

With God EVERYTHING is possible!! He will save all. It makes me sad that people really believe that God will torture people in Hell forever

[@mondaykanu9940]

God is love, the Bible declares. He doesn't Will that any should perish and His Will is greater than that of the Adversary. All will be saved eventually but All will have to go through the Judgement of God (2 Cor 5:10), some (the elect/chosen) in this age (1 Pet 4:17) and the rest of mankind in the ages to come. Here are a few texts that speak to the Salvation of All: 1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 4:10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Philippians 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us ALL, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? 1Co 15:22 (CEV) Adam brought death to all of us, and Christ will bring life to all of us. Romans 5:18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. Isaiah 66:18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory. Isaiah 66:23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD. May the Lord grant us the eyes to see and ears to hear....Amen!

@TheTotalVictoryofChrist I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to thoroughly examine scripture. I’m a big fan of your work and hope to see new videos soon. I’ll be honest when I first read about Universal Salvation, I rejected it, I felt it was too good to be true. I agreed with many who argue that if it is the true Gospel, then why bother following Christ. Why worry about how you conduct yourself in this life. But learning from you and people like you, and seeing above what is commonly taught in Church I not only liked the doctrine, I love it. I hope your message reaches many, especially to those who rejected Christianity simply for the ideology of eternal damnation/annihilationism. God bless you, and God bless everyone. Thank you!

[@invertedreality4473]

Embracing universal makes me want to follow Jesus more, not less. Why? Because the false doctrine of eternal conscious torment is based on FEAR, whereas universalism is based on LOVE. Also, if you believe in ECT, your belief contradicts what Jesu said: "With God, all things are possible". ECT implies that God is unable to save His creation, and it also contradicts God's true nature of justice and love

[@gfujigo]

[@Huddie400]

But I do love that first Corinthian’s verse comparing Jesus to Adam. That does indeed seem to be evidence of universalism. and I do love the point made about indefinite punishment for a finite sin is absolutely not a balance in the scales of justice.

@the form of sound words ministries In Christ ALL will be made alive. ALL will be made alive in Christ. The same ALL that was fallen with Adam. What more context can one ask for?

[@wndavi]

@the form of sound words ministries Blessings to you. Here is the verse again, in a few different translations: (1 COR 15:22) GOD'S WORD® Translation As everyone dies because of Adam, so also everyone will be made alive because of Christ. Literal Standard Version for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all will be made alive Young's Literal Translation for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all shall be made alive, So, what do you think this verse means?

[@gabrielrae7647]

@the form of sound words ministries well if IN Adam means all people then IN christ means all people?

[@gabrielrae7647]

@the form of sound words ministries that's not how the term in Christ was used though in the passage

[@gabrielrae7647]

@the form of sound words ministries it said as in Adam all died. In Adam followed by all people meant the entire human race. As in christ all shall be made alive. In christ followed by all people means the entire human race. It doesn't say only those who are in christ will be made Alive and it wouldn't make sense to say in christ all shall be made Alive if it wasn't talking about all people. Those in christ doesn't account for all people so saying all people but meaning those in christ wouldn't make sense. Your applying a different standard to the in Adam line and the in christ line when their sentence structure is the same

[@raestera]

The rewards of following Christ begin the day that you accept him even in this life. If you allow his love to manifest in you, your character is transformed to be more compassionate, patient, self-controlled, and wise. That growth continues for your whole life.

While I am not very familiar with scripture, I think that the rewards believers will get will be the "special salvation". They will be higher on the social latter when Christ comes back to fix this world, before the new heaven and new earth. I feel as if everyone will be equal in the end.

[@77goanywhere]

I think I know what you are saying but Jesus doesn't have a "social ladder". But I do speculate that in the Kingdom there will always be teaching and learning. Perhaps those who have come to faith earlier will somehow be given the responsibility to lead others in their growth and ongoing maturity. Not as a "hierarchy" but like parents with children. ??

[@nastasjaperry476]

thank you for telling me this truth

[@servantofmylord]

I like the idea of universal salvation because I have always felt that God, being a loving God would find a way to save all souls. Many people have rejected Christianity based on the idea the God would condemn a child in India, who never heard the word of Christ and died. I choose instead to TRUST God. I can debate all day long about this Bible passage or that one, but when it comes down to it, knowing the nature of God the way I do, I know that HE will do the right thing. That HE will act more compassionately than any human is capable of. He will exhibit forgiveness at a level that no human can match and that HE loves us in a way that we cannot even begin to fathom. It is through knowing that, that I personally think universal salvation is closer to the truth than eternal damnation. But I also think that some souls may be lost, not through condemnation, but through choice. For some souls, hell is being in the presence of the LORD because their hatred of all that is good is so strong.

[@nistan3]

[@edengarden6811]

Amen! Just how i think about it

[@mondaykanu9940]

EmmausRoad, I suggest you do a little study on the sovereignty of God in the affairs of men. The stumbling block in understanding the sovereignty of God is the erroneous doctrine of Free Will (so called free moral agency). Even in the face of a plain text as in John 6:44 and 65 many still cling on to this "idol of the heart free will." Even when we are told to choose whom we are to serve (Joshua 24:15), Joshua or you or me couldn't have made the choice of serving God if not that He gives us the Will and to Do of His good pleasure (Phil 2:13), if not that He DRAWS (Greek, DRAG) us to Himself (Jn6:44). The same situation still applies today. He are equally told that we can do nothing without Him (John 15:5b). These are but a few of the numerous scriptures that speak to the Sovereignty of God: Ephesians 1:11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh ALL things after the counsel of his own will: Isaiah 46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: (all His pleasure means ALL, including good and bad/evil, Isa 45:7 and 54:16, Amos 3:6, etc) ESV) Job 23:13 But he is unchangeable, and who can turn him back? What he desires, that he does. Job 42:2 I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee. Psalms 115:3 For our God is in the heavens, and he does as he wishes. Psalms 135:6 Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places. The Acts 9:5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. Daniel 4:35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? We are equally told that the preparation of the heart and our utterances are of the Lord: Proverbs 21:1 The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. Proverbs 16:1 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD. Proverbs 16:4 The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil. Furthermore Brethren, I suggest you visit (www.iswasandwillbe.com) and start with the study titled, "After The Counsel of His Will" and thereafter continue with essential reading section. God willing, you'll come to realize the meaning of this very powerful passage: 1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Finally, remember that we (you and I) must live by every word that procedeth out of the mouth of God (Matt and Luke 4:4). Therefore we must live by all the saying of the Scriptures Shalom!

Great video. I found it fascinating that Jesus was talking to the 12, which included Judas at the time he was speaking. And he said that the 12 would be seated on 12 thrones. Most people when they think of Judas don’t think about Jesus promising him a throne.So it seems, although Jesus knew that Judas was going to betray him, he also knew that he was going to be sitting on the throne in the future. I think that is cool.

[@ClockReads2113]

I think a good point to make when reading this passage to refute ECT is acknowledging that if there was ever a place for Jesus to matter-of-factly prove ECT was true, it would be in this verse, when he was asked who can enter Heaven. If ECT was true Jesus could have easily came out and said "Only those who believe in me will enter Heaven. Anyone who doesn't will go to a place of eternal torment." This was the perfect opportunity for him to do that but he doesn't.

[@simthiam3712]

I guess the reason why some just refuse to accept that God will save All eventually, n even Beyond The Grave is because.... they still want to use Fear to control others as well as to reserve salvation only for themselves, the selected few. They scare they would lose all that "specialness" over the majority . But God loves All, n His Son Jesus is the Savior for the Whole World !!

[@jflaugher]

Loved the video. Great use of scripture. Question: are you familiar with the "Revelation Of Peter" found in the New Testament Apocrypha. Back in the 4th Century, it was being considered for canonization - and it is very similar in vision, language, and tone to the "Revelation of John" in the New Testament, but was rejected by the Church fathers because the Revelation of Peter has a universal salvation message at its conclusion - and the Church fathers didn't necessarily disagree with universal salvation, rather they were worried that if lay people knew they would eventually be saved, what would prevent them from committing sins. They believed the fear of eternal damnation was a way to keep people from sinning. Chapter 14 of the Revelation of Peter describes the salvation of condemned sinners because of the prayers of the righteous for God to show mercy. In other words, sinners will finally be saved by the prayers of those in Heaven. The text reads: "My Father will give unto them all the life, the glory, and the kingdom that passeth not away, ... It is because of them that have believed in me that I am come. It is also because of them that have believed in me, that, at their word, I shall have pity on men... " Peter is then told keep it secret: [and God said]"... thou must not tell that which thou hearest unto the sinners lest they transgress the more, and sin." And the Church fathers did just that. They kept this text secret for the very reason it gave at the end - so that sinners will not commit more sin.

[@thetotalvictoryofchrist9838]

It's important to understand that when they translated the Old Testament into what is known as the Greek Septuagint, they translated the Hebrew word "Sheol" as "Hades" in Greek. This is because "Hades" was the closest idea parallel to Sheol in Greek, merely the realm of the dead. So the understanding in the New Testament is always that "Hades" = "Sheol". They were not importing any of the pagan mythology related to Hades into our understanding. Is that helpful?

[@lisakaylenedongell6836]

Thank you for the reply. I think the Hellenized Jews were already indoctrinated by Socrates and Plato before the Greek Septuagint, 3-2 B.C., so translator bias would have already been attached to Hades.

Many turn away when they hear that for millions and millions of people, there is no hope if for whatever reason they do not "accept Christ." Many millions never hear the evangel (gospel) adequately rendered to them, and many others never hear the name of Jesus at all. Still others have heard, but require time for the Holy Spirit to work on their thought life. There are as many different situations as there are people on earth. Several harsh and unforgiving doctrines have developed over the centuries making use of just a few mistranslated or misunderstood words in the Bible, but God the Father is much more forgiving, merciful, longsuffering, and restorative than any one of us. That's what makes Him God. He has eons in the future to correct, transform and rehabilitate anyone and everyone created in His Image. Jesus paid the price IN FULL for *ALL.* Don't worry about the wicked -- their punishment will fit their crimes, and over however many ages, even their knees will bow and tongues gladly confess.

[@husq48]

What does Jesus then mean when he speaks of damnation, or when he said "the one who does not believe is already condemned?"

[@artbyrobot1]

When you are not in Christ you are condemned. This means you are separated from God spiritually and in a state of despair and suffering spiritually and dead inside spiritually in the bad kind of way of being dead inside. That is what condemnation is upon man when they are in sin, spiritual death and separation from God. Hopelessness and helplessness and wretchedness and evil inside. It is soul crushing. That applies to this life and the life to come until one repents and worships God with all of their being. Only then is one made complete and no longer in a state of condemnation inside.

God doesn't need us to believe in him to be God. In fact the bible tells us the demons believe in God. "You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that-and shudder" - James 2:19 (NIV) If you want to be counted among the righteous you need to, as James taught, "really keep the royal law found in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Some people who never heard of Christ do this instinctively because God has written his laws on our hearts (Romans 2:15). Actually James chapter 2 is a very good chapter to read often. He really gets to the heart of what it means to be a Christian. www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James%202&version=NIV

John 1:12 is teknon which relates to all that receive the Lord Jesus as Saviour. Nepios is for carnal teknons. Huios is for mature teknons. Writers if epistles write to motivate all teknons to become Huios so we can reign with Christ or receive the blessing of the “FIRSTBORN SONS” Hence Paul in PhilippiNs 3 talks a soecial resurrection He wants to be part od so he presses towards the mark for the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Peter tells the teknon to add to their faith etc so they might have an ABUNDANT ENTRANCE INTO THE KINGDOM.

Wrong! The rich man said “what lack I yet” Jesus said “Sell all that you have an come follow me” and the man went away sad because he had great possessions. The rich man didn’t keep all the commandment perfect because the word of God said “No one doeth good, no not one” Also “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” So that rich man was guilty of sin too! Also the fault wasn’t that he was rich! The fault was that He believed he had to do things to inherit eternal life instead of following Jesus. Entering Heaven is not based on our good works, remember the rich man said “What good things MUST I DO to inherit eternal life”...he was trusting in himself, his riches, and his good works. “With men it is impossible but with God all thing are possible” With men it is impossible “To fulfill the law perfectly” the rich man said “All these have I kept from my youth up, what lack i yet” trying to say to Jesus that he kept the law perfectly. But with God all things are possible. Because Jesus is the son of God and is God, remember Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. Go back to “But with God all things are possible” Jesus is saying I’m God and nothing is impossible for me to do even to fulfill the law, which Jesus kept perfectly. ⬆️ nobody can refute that Jesus kept the law or then Jesus would be a sinner and we know that’s not true.

[@mondaykanu9940]

Universal Salvation is truly the Good News. That is the message of the Bible which is the doctrine of Jesus Christ. Fact is, organized religion has missed the mark. They represent the many called, the multitude. They do not understand that of the many called, only the few chosen that is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God. They are the ones that will be saved now, in this age. However, there's still an age to come, the millennium reign, the kingdom to come when the elect, the first fruits will live and reign with Christ (Rev 20). At the end of this symbolic 1000 years reign, the rest of mankind that did not know God will then be judged just as the elect/first fruits were judged in this age (1 Pet 4:17) which qualified then to be part of the kingdom of God. It is important we know the role of judgement in the salvation of all men. Here are a few scriptures on the role of judgement: 2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil. Ecclesiastes 12:14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Here is why we are saved by the judgement of God which comes to all men at their individual God's appointed time, the elect/chosen/first fruits now and the rest of mankind in the lake of Fire.(1 Cor 15:23. Luke 3:16, 1 Cor 3:13-15, Rev 20: 14-15) 1 Corinthians 11:32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. Isaiah 26:9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. May the Lord grant us the eyes to see and ears to hear....Amen!

I see no reason to believe the millenium reign is merely symbolic as you suggest.

[@artbyrobot1]

any time we see eternal in the Bible, it is figurative eternal. Just add the understanding that it is figurative when it says it. Jonah was in the belly of the whale "forever" the Bible says, but we know he got out and preached after so forever wasn't literal. So we can still say eternal/aionion interchangeably as long as we know it is figurative. Now your question seems to point moreso to the argument that eternal hell is figurative but eternal life is not figurative. No they both are figurative. Eternal life is also conditional and may not never end. There could be a new rebellion and spiritual death like Adam and Even in the garden all over again leading to another process of restoring all men who fell unto himself all over again. This may happen once every 50 billion billion years or so. So even eternal life is conditioned upon continuing in Christ eternally. We know angels who were perfect in all ways full of wisdom randomly rebelled. There is nothing stopping anyone who is perfect from rebelling like this in the future. So eternal hell and eternal life both are figurative consistently and both are conditional. This is consistent treatment of the text.

Ah! I lean toward Partial Preterest eschatology, and Peter was an Apostle to the Jews. Christ had warned that the destruction of Jerusalem, as predicted by the prophet Daniel, would occur in that generation. Daniel said the destruction would come "like a flood" and Peter echos that. So Peter is likely referring to those who are going to literally perish in that coming destruction. If you go back and read 2 Peter 3 you will see that imagery of coming destruction. A book I would recommend you read is "The Book of Revelation Made Easy" by Dr. Kenneth Gentry. That will open you eyes to a lot of the imagery going on in there.

A proposition can't save you. A saviour is not a proposition in this case the Saviour is a person or a substitute. If Salvation was based on your choice to accept and believe in Christ, then it is impossible for the title saviour to be attributed to Christ at the cross. This is because you haven't made the decision yet and Christ can only become your saviour then only based on your decision. Basically the scripture says Salvation belongs to the lord ie.. it has nothing to do with any man. God made an amnsety with his son Jesus and himself not man. The proposition was put to Jesus by the father for him to be your substitute, not you. It is God's choice to save you not yours.

So you suggesting people go straight from rebellion on earth to heaven as a reward is pure foolishness and a lying tongue false witness way of presenting what is taught on this channel. Just as nobody can come to Christ on earth without first repenting and surrendering all, so also it will be in the next life, punishment and ultimately repenting and surrendering all is still required then just as it is now. Next you ask why spread the gospel if all shall be saved? What a wicked question. So you truly hate your brother, making you a murderer at heart, SO MUCH that you would not abandon everything to spread the gospel to them if you did not believe in literal eternal hell for them if they don't get the gospel in time? How very wicked of you. If you truly knew God and loved Him, you would gladly lay down your life to spread His gospel because you know the freedom and joy it will give your brother to enter into relationship with God and end their time of rebellion and wandering in darkness. You would yearn for them to be reconciled with God becuase you love them and you know God and know how much they are missing out on in this life and in the next age. That you think God is not worth serving nor the gospel worth sharing unless people get neverendingly roasted like a marshmellow proves you don't know God. The gospel is even more worth sharing knowing we serve a merciful God will will save all men in the fullness of time. Love should compell you and joy should strengthen you to gladly share the gospel without the need for the pagan literal eternal conscious torment doctrine as your sole fuel to evangelize.

@@artbyrobot1 Universalism is a proven heresy. Everyone *eventually* ending up in Heaven is a false doctrine. I don't wish Hell on anyone. I love my fellow man and I spread the clear gospel everywhere I go on social media.

[@Huddie400]

I believe in Universalism but I don’t think these verses are a very good example of this doctrine. I might need to know the particulars of the Greek translation. But it seems to me these verses could be interpreted perfectly well in the traditional non-Universalist doctrine just as easily.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THE MOCKERY, OF THE GOSPEL. AND YOUR OPINIONS..LEADING PEOPLE STRAIGHT AWAY. IT'S NOT FUNNY, BUT COMICAL WHEN YOU SAID THE BAPTISM OF THE "HOLY" SPIRIT" IS IN THE PRESENCE OF THE LAMB, IN THE PLACE, WHERE GOD CREATED FOR ET3RNAL PUNISHMENT FOR THE FALLEN ANGELS, TARTAROO TARTARUS WHATEVER. LEADING SOULS AWAY FROM REPENTANCE AS IF YOU HADA RIGHT TO. AS IF GOD OUR FATHER. DID ALL THIS SO IT COULD BE SUPER EASY WELL IT'S NOT..FEW THERE BE THAT FIND IT..ONLY WHEN YOU SEARCH WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART, MIND, BODY, AND SOUL...

[@tysonjohnson4414]

I understand the heart behind this video. Unfortunately this scripture is taken way out of context. There is a lesson behind the story of the rich young ruler and it’s pointing towards the difficulties of obeying Christ when your tied up with your riches. If u keep reading the next chapter there is the story of another rich man who happened to be a chief tax collector. This man zachaeus was hungry for God and did not look at his own deeds as sufficient enough to gain the kingdom of heaven. He knew it came down to the heart that is willing to do anything for Christ. Scripture is showing us the contrast between the two. We shouldn’t create doctrine out of scriptures like these.

Salvation is only through God because man can not Save himself. Only through the death on the cross can a person be saved, & putting your faith in that death & resurrection can a man be saved. I AM the way the truth & the life, no one comes to the Father, but through the SON.

[@julietrae8665]

RIGHT ON TYSON. MY MIND IS BLOWN AT SOME OF THE THINGS I SEE THIS GUY SAY...ALMOST LIKE THE SATANIC BIBLE, WHERE IT SAYS, "DO WHAT THOU WILT, AND LET THAT BE THE WHOLE OF THE LAW...I THOUGHT, "HE IS A LOVING GUY, I'LL CHECK HIM OUT" EVERYTHING HE SAYS, TAKES SCRIPTURE OUT OF CONTEXT. THINKS EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT, IS ACTUALLY THE BAPTISM OF FIRE! NO DUDE, THAT WAS DESCRIBED, AND WHY PENTECOST WAS WHEN THE HOLY SEE "HOLY" SPIRIT BAPTISM, NOT UNHOLY, BAPTISM OF FIRE. BEEE CAREFUL PEOPLE..THIS IS WHAT CHRIST AND THE APOSTLES WARNED US ABOUT..DOCTRINES OF DEVILS...AAAAND NO! WE'RE NOT ALL GODS CHILDREN..

[@artbyrobot1]

@@julietrae8665 writing in all caps doesn't hide how foolish you are woman. The fire of God does purge and cleanse and baptism brings death to the old man and makes us a new creature. Hell fire brings death to the old man and makes people new creatures. The Bible doesn't limit this baptism to just conversion experiences on earth and genuine conversion is painful even on earth if you recall. People were cut to the heart, people tear their clothes and weep at the foot of the cross completely wretched and unworthy tears pouring down as the fire of God falls on them and they realize their wickedness and cry out for deliverance. So the same baptism of fire can easily cause pain and suffering in a prolonged way. This baptism of fire then can apply to both cases of Godly sorrow and repentance on earth that destroys the old man and brings you to newness of life and can apply in a more prolonged way in the next life for those who face God's judgement as well. It isn't either one or the other. His use of applying baptism of fire to hell is not undermining other teachings that apply this to Pentecost like experiences. These two applications of baptism by fire doctrines don't conflict and both are true. They harmonize. Many scriptures teach more than one thing and it isn't a case of only one teaching from any given scripture must be true and the rest false. Scriptures can take on multiple meanings. This is why we keep studying and reading it for life because more layers of meanings and hidden meanings can be revealed with deeper teachings hidden. It isn't the case that just because you were taught one thing for a verse, that any deeper teachings from the same verse and then necessarily false as you suppose. Also, spiritually, when in rebellion we are not spiritually children of God, but as humans, we are all God's children. Angels are also called sons of God just like us as humans. And if they and we are sons of God, then we are the children of God, all of us. The prodigal son parable is one proof. The prodigal son is still a son, just is a lost son. So also it is with us when we go astray. We are spiritually children of Satan but Satan did not create us. The Father did. He's all of our Father because he created us all. So we're all his children in the sense of Him being the Father of creation.

I wish this were true. You’re steering people wrong from wishful thinking. How do you reconcile Matthew 25? Translation error? No way.

Yes way. Look at YLT for example. St Gregory of Nyssa was a universalist and fluent in koine Greek. You think he never read that passage?

The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 1 Timothy 4:1-2 NIV For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 2 Timothy 4:3-4 NIV

[@michaelj.frazee9043]

You should stop hopping on these utube channels and spouting off the same fear-mongering verses over and over again. You're an antagonistic Christian. Why are you so full of hate for your fellow Christians? So what if we believe that all will be saved, the main thing is that we are all Christians on this channel, and when you go around looking for trouble and doing what you do, it's not Christlike of you at all, and it sets a bad example for others. When you go around doing these things, it sends a message that the Christian belief system teaches hatred. These are your fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, so you might wanna think about being kind and tolerant for a change. It's never too late to turn from your hatred, just be nice to each other, and make friends.

@the form of sound words ministries I am a Universalist and we believe in the gospel and Jesus Christ so shut up and quit trolling on utube pages and making pagan threats at people. Do the research and you'll find out that hell is pagan to the core, which makes you a pagan, so you are believing in things that are not from Jesus Christ, but borrowed from the heathen.

[@michaelj.frazee9043]

@the form of sound words ministries You and your friend both work to uphold the Law, that's your problem. You both look to establish your own righteousness (Romans 10:3), and by doing that, you reject the righteousness of God, which is the biggest sin you can commit. You both need to repent of relying on yourselves for what Jesus Christ has already done for you.

[@ocdplaylistmaker7032]

Oof... All these errors are getting into new language Bibles in missionary work...

[@chuckyz2]

THe disciples did not willing choose to follow the Lord. They told Jesus, "we have come to believe that you truly are the Son of God." And Jesus replied, "Did I not choose you, the 12?" You are close but really far off on what the meanings and reasons are for this existence. You are really off on the rewards aspect for the chosen. As for benefits, who that is truly loving would want more than others? And why would one use such a carrot. As one of the chosen, I don't want to be rewarded for the work I have been called to do. Simply knowing that all humans are saved is plenty of reward. There will be no need for higher ranking Christians. The disciples were called. And they will sit and and judge. But after the Earth is made new, and we are made new, born again, the resurrection, there will be no need for judges. God will be in all as He is in Jesus. The last verse says it all. The last will be first and the first will be last. Think about that. THe first will let the last have their pick. We are so glad you are here. Pick your land. We will take what's leftover. Because it will all be good. lol. Here is the real meaning of this life we live. Rather we are shown in this life, chosen, or afterward at the resurrection. That the need for freewill is sin. We are made things. To have freewill, there has to be a choice. That means there has to be a devil whispering choices in our ear. Because if there is only God whispering in our ear, we will only do Gods will. Hence the judgement of Satan and his angels and them being cast into the lake of fire forever and ever is the salvation. And only Gods will shall be done after that. By making us with a brain that can reason, that can imagine and that has intelligence, God knew we would consider what it would be like to be like God. That we as children would want to be like our Father. To know good and evil being one of those things. But we can't know evil, because as you have seen, evil is much more powerful than us, when we don't have God in us. And to have freewill to make a choice between good and evil, God has to leave. He will give a law first. The first being don't eat of that tree. Only one commandment in Eden. Then He left. Later we get ten commandments carved on stone. Then at the Pentecost the law was carved on our hearts. Then he left. But He promised He would return on the last day. To have freewill, there has to be a devil, there has to be laws and God can not get involved. He can only tell you what He wants you to do then leave. Then the devil comes and convinces you it's ok to do the opposite. Be it for wisdom or whatever. Even some form of godship. No, the whole thing is about Gods will being done and us learning that we are made things and we don't get to make choices between good and evil. To except that we are made and not the maker. And any wisdom we have is a gift from Him. Our Father who is in heaven (not here) Hallowed be thy name Thy kingdom come (Please come back) Thy will be done (not ours) On Earth as it is in heaven. (His will is not being done Satan is the ruler of this world) everyone sins! Give us this day our daily bread Forgive us our sins As we forgive those who sin against us. Deliver us from evil (bye bye Satan, his angels and the demons that come from the nephilim when they die.) For yours is the Kingdom and The Power and the Glory forever! Amen?

@@artbyrobot1 these scriptures ar taken out of context. We are saved by grace through faith alone. Not just by grace! Grace has appeared to all men, but not everyone believes.
