I am not asking who would have been saved, I am asking what their destiny would have been.
The Bible doesn't say Eliah will be saved in some future date, it says he ALREADY WENT TO HEAVEN.
So, if people could go to heaven by making the right choice before Jesus died on the cross, then why do you think Jesus died? They had to make a choice then, and according to traditional views, they have to make a choice now. UR believes Jesus died to save mankind, not to reward them for believing correctly and setting them on fire if they don't.
A great sixteeen chapter introductory series to ultimate reconciliation.
J. Preston Eby does a thorough job covering many aspects of the topic.
Fundamental reading for any person interested in studying universalism from a solid biblical perspective. Highly Recommended! THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD Kingdom Bible Studies: J. Preston Eby, Kingdom of God; Saviour of The World

Thanks for trying to tell me what I believe, but no, that is not what I believe. Not at all. If that is what you believed, then you never knew Him.

What I would do is irrelevant. What did God do when he saw the people of Noah's time reject Him? He killed them. What did he do with Jews when they rejected Him? He killed them. He did it over, and over and over, so what is the point of asking me what I would do? Would you have killed everyone in the flood? God does what he does, and our preference on the matter has little relevance. If you think God has changed since Noah's time, you ar wrong, because He is still the same God.
And it is absurd to say that it is not Jesus who would be torturing us since He is the one who created us and sustains us alive. Colossians 1:16
