Because the things that are on the wide road that leads to destruction.. are the things that SHOULD be destroyed. Non-love and all of the things that it produces.. envy, strife, murder, hatred, abuse and all of the trickle-down effects of those things which touch every living thing and causes damage. It is the best news possible that those things (which are destructive) are BEING destroyed.
Wait.. you don't think God is going to destroy human beings, do you??!!
If Jesus Christ is the saviour of ALL mankind, (especially those who believe) and if every knee will bow and if God will be ALL in ALL... then the idea that God is destroying human beings, is an impossibility.
As in Adam, ALL die. So in CHRIST, all shall LIVE.
Every tongue will confess...
Mike, these are people who in their own minds - put limits on what God can and can't do. They (three of them) have already claimed to refuse to worship God if He punished anyone eternally. God will handle them as He sees fit.
You will never convince them because they are operating with their own playbook.
Yes, I know. And they are in for a very rude awakening.
This would mean that you believe there is something WE must do before we die to be saved . . . but we have nothing to do with our salvation. Christ did that for us all. We are responsible for our sanctification . . . NOT our salvation. That affects what we will reap from what we sow . . . hay, stubble, wood or gold, silver, etc.
Yes. We must confess and believe.
Romans 10:9
9 If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

I wonder ... do the believers in eternal torment here (DRob, Mike, jimmie, vizio, Twin, anyone else) agree that the things within themselves bolded in the post above are in the process of being destroyed?

That is a very good (and thoughtful) question, Pleroo.
