Here is a snippet from James' Coram's EONIAN FIRE AND JUDGING
"God disciplines those of whom He is fond (Heb.12:7-11; Rev.3:19), and He is fond of humanity (Titus 3:4). We can be sure that God will be doing all things well, exercising judgment founded upon His love." biblical studies: Eonian Fire and Judging
Here is a good example. Jesus teaches us to be humble, yet you are arrogant. Are you saying that Jesus told you to 'be humble' but He does not desire you to be humble?
Trust me, He told you to be humble, because He wants you to be humble. He did not force you to disobey His order, you CHOSE to disobey. It is His permissive desire for us to be humble. It is permissive, because we have the option to disobey, like you just did.
Just like Paul was arrogant when he told the Corinthians that they were carnally minded and spiritual babes, right?
1Cr 3:1-3
And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?
There are many here who are more sensitive than i am,. and that is their gift. I am not one of them, i call it like i see it ... Like the apostles and Christ did ...
I believe you are just like the people Paul was speaking to in Corinth ... And that is why you teach that Christ failed to accomplish Gods desire and purpose to save all people, and why you teach that God cannot ever get what he desires, and will torture most of humanity for ever ... It is why you teach that torture is a good thing. After all, if eternal torture is the divine justice of God, then it must be a good thing, right? Or do you believe that what you call divine justice is an evil thing?
Good bye Roger. I pray that one day God will give you peace, joy and love.
Do you mean that you pray God will give him the opinion that torturing most of humanity for ever is peaceful and loving, and brings joy to those who believe in it?
Fine title, but not a promise of universal salvation.
Its not a promise, it is a stated fact. God IS the savior of all people. Thus all people ARE saved, though most people are not aware of it yet, and though the effects of it have not yet fully manifested in most people lives.
Obama is legally the president of the US, which means legally he presides over the united states, just like God is the savior of all people, because he has saved all people.
Do you mean that you pray God will give him the opinion that torturing most of humanity for ever is peaceful and loving, and brings joy to those who believe in it?
No, I pray that he will find the love he preaches, so that he can share it with others.
Do you need "free will" explained to you again sir?
No, but you can answer the question since no one else will.
