Salvation is free to ALL . . . . . Period. That's UR in a nutsell, everyone will be granted eternal life . . . .
Lifesigns,


{Aonian} life is continuing life ---- it is not interrupted by judgment and the second death --- what someone reaps they will sow God is not mocked he will righteously judge everyone ----- for all of the pain and suffering that Hitler caused, he will reap it.

What does this verse mean to you?

1Pe 4:5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
1Pe 4:6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

Because if one doesn't (such as me) then all must be lumped together.. Finn doesn't seem to care if he misrepresents what people believe or don't believe.... Now about me he is absolutely right, as I don't believe in a horned guy with a pitchfork called satan... but obviously other URers don't feel that way...

Personally I think he's just trying to be combative, but that is JMO.

And I suspect that you DO believe in the adversary/opposer, just not the traditional near-almighty devil and the "Helel son of Shahar" myth, right?

You said yourself that there is nothing one needs to do in order to get saved. Yes? Then, but definition it is AUTOMATIC. Please look up the definition of the word 'automatic' if you don't know what it means.

And I said the URs don't believe one needs to be born again in this lifetime, which is the same thing as just said above. You believe one does not need to do anything, not even be born again because you believe everyone will be saved after death. It is the CORE UR belief, and a false teaching.

No, they don't think you need to accept Jesus at all in your lifetime. You can live and die like Satan and reject Jesus, but they are still automatically saved after death. It is not a choise: everyone will be saved whether they like it or not.

You know, you guys stated something that I had actually given thought to some years ago, but you had put it in very clear terms about the Jewish concept of satan not being a spiritual being. You had some links if I recall. Can you repost? thanx!

No one accepts Jesus. You receive Jesus when born of the Spirit. And further, no one accepts being born of the Spirit. It's the sovereign work of the Spirit:

Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Joh 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

The term listeth in the KJV is the Greek word:

θέλω
thélō; ***. thelḗsō. To will, wish, desire, implying active volition and purpose.
(I) To will, i.e., to have in mind, purpose, intend, please.

LOL Now you are defeating your own point.
