These are a list of links that misinterpret scripture towards universal salvation.
In the end, they give a false sense of security to unbelievers before they face God after this life, in their sin, without Christ.
What else do you expect from such people to trust in, who more than on one occasion admits being "a former Christian"?
However there is another false hope for such people: trust the OSAS alternative despite Jesus saying:
"Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine ...
If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers;
suchbranchesarepickedup, thrownintothefireandburned*." ~ Jesus
Man is not judged by God by man's standards but by "God's standards."
One in fellowship with God knows His standards, one out of fellowship is still in sin/rebellion.

No, not "admits", as if I'm reluctant to confess it. I say it with deep gratitude. Of course, as one Christian puts it [and I am paraphrasing], "When someone asks me if I'm a Christian, I ask them to tell me what they think a Christian is, and then I can tell them if I am one of those." So, based on the definition of "Christian" I was raised with, (which was based on believing the "right" doctrines, including eternal torment and substitutionary atonement and biblical inerrancy) I'm grateful to say I am not one of those any longer.

Nothing but a rude awaking awaits you if one think that Jesus didn't teach believing the "right" doctrines ( including eternal torment, substitutionary atonement and biblical inerrancy).
