"For of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all things."
Source, Guide and Goal of all, (the radical all of pas), to Him be glory for ever, Amen! (Rom.11:36)
God, our ABBA, is the source of all things. All things are out of God himself. Before the creation there was nothing, no-thing, only invisible spirit.
Through faith we understand that the worlds were (made) formed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. In other words, everything we see was once spirit in the Spirit mind of God, just a thought before it was spoken into expression. Not only is God the Source but also the Guide of all things. God is controlling and directing all into his desired Goal, which is himself.
All was breathed out of him; and all is being inhaled back into him!
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
The D & D tag team should appreciate the scope of this quotation by none other than Abraham Lincoln, another believer in Ultimate Reconciliation.
D & D wake up your ears and eyes!
"The current Evangelical Theology involves in its system belief in the deathlessness of sin, the indestructibility of error, and permanence of evil. That though there was a time in the history of the universe when sin in any shape or form did not exist, when no cry of pain or sense of guilt darkened the all-extensive bliss and holiness of creation, yet since sin has once effected an entrance into such a scene, it has come in never to go out again, indestructible, unconquerable, ineradicable, endless. Absolute happiness and sinlessness have forever vanished like the phantom of a dream. The eternal state is a universe endlessly finding room for myriads of souls rolling and writhing in the burning agonies of ceaseless flame, eternally sinful, vile and morally hideous. It pictures the final perfection yet to be attained as having room for a vast cesspool of immoral and degraded beings, continually existing in opposition to God." ~Vladimir Gelesnoff

The UR should recognize that going against His word in their own ways is enmity with God!

Mat 5:10, Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Mat 5:11, Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Mat 5:12, Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

You are not being criticized because you believe in Jesus. You are being criticized because you believe the Bible over Jesus and believe really awful things about Him and God.
However, even if I am neither of those things, what I am is a disciple of Jesus; so the scripture in question applies to me.
