Very many people have come to see the eventual restoration of all to God in their use of the popular translations. There are many tools at our disposal. God bless.

Scroll down on this link and look at the chapter heading for chapter 29.:

CHURCH FATHERS: On Grace and Free Will (St. Augustine)

Think about how many mainstream Christians are in opposition to Augustine.

Paul

CU is the belief that all mankind will eventually be restored to God through Jesus Christ. God bless.

You are very sly. And your words are very eloquent....I've read about that!

But you just told me a few posts back that an eternal sin WILL BE allowed in God's presence FOREVER, remember?

So can you please tell me which way you want it because it's hard for me to allow you to have it both ways.

Twist that however you like.

Say it 'says this or that' like you do.

In other words, keep accusing me and you and Camps can keep blaspheming the God of the Bible.

Again, anyone who reads their bible can see this IF they believe their bible.

God calls....He doesn't drag us into the Kingdom against our will. Also, I'm assuming there's a reason you are using the word 'persuade' since you seem to like repeating it over and over. What specific verses of scripture are you trying to misrepresent?
AMEN Alpha! I believe this too, this is what the Bible teaches us.

Did God somehow fail because He saved only a few from the flood?

Your view of my God is slanted.

From John 1:
He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God
(emphasis mine)
I don't believe that God is done with those of the flood. You seem to believe so.

Why is it that you believe mans Power to Oppose God is greater than His Power to Oppose man?

Paul

Yes, and eventually all will be delivered and changed into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. (Romans 8). God bless.
