God forgives before the Creation of the World. It is this fact delivered in the incarnation, death and resurrection of Jesus which is the drawing power that draws all men to himself.
Universalism is false doctrine.

How did you arrive at that conclusion? (popular misconception) ???Universalism is false doctrine.
Did you cut the "happy" verses out of your Bible?Feel free to continue to pick and choose only the happy verses ignoring the rest of what the Lord says to continue in false doctrine.
What do you do with the contradictions?
Did you cut the "happy" verses out of your Bible?
But aren't you claiming the happy verses are nullified by your ugly verses?No, the happy verses must be read in the light of the rest of God's Word.
But aren't you claiming the happy verses are nullified by your ugly verses?
Why can't you give an honest response?That's what those deceived by satan claim because they are blinded by demonic doctrine.
Why can't you give an honest response
You inferred that our "happy" verses are null and void.God cannot lie so there are no contradictions in His Word.
My, my...You are obviously hopeless.
I find that though you and I differ, we debate our differences. Don't feed the trolls...My, my...
Judge not, lest ye be judged.
Better get that plank out of your own eye before you remove a speck from mine.

That would make a good topic. Thanks.A dialectic debate is a form of argumentative dialogue where individuals, holding different perspectives, engage in a reasoned discussion to arrive at the truth or a deeper understanding of a subject. Unlike a debate that focuses on winning, a dialectic debate emphasizes collaboration and the pursuit of knowledge through questioning, contradiction, and synthesis of opposing viewpoints. The goal is to move beyond initial assumptions and arrive at a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of the topic at hand.
It would. Someone on CARM Forums came up with it (Civic), so I started a Thread there about Dialectic Debate. I found that I kept on winning discussions there; it's kind of the way I Debate anyway. I call my method of Debate using "Shared Beliefs" to build upon and make my larger Point...That would make a good topic. Thanks.

What do we know about Samson? It’s a convoluted and grizzly story at times, but in context of the era, such violence was common….and at the times of the Judges, Israel was not exactly in good spiritual condition.Most people know the story of Samson; the world’s strongest man. He wasn’t a very good man, but as a Judge he defended his people Israel.
Who said that is true? Hell is a place where all the dead “sleep”…according to Solomon, the dead are not in a conscious state in “Sheol”, which the Jewish Tanakh translates as “the grave”. (Eccl 9:5, 10) We go to the same place that the animals do….back to the dust as God told Adam. (Gen 3:19; Eccl 3:19-20)Hell is a place of eternal torment and your hand is on its pillar; what you need to do is put your other hand on the pillar of Heaven; a place of eternal Glory!
Yep, read it again….what is the opposite to believing in God’s “only begotten son”? Those who fail to believe will “perish”….that is not torment. Look it up.For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes on him shall not perish but have everlasting Life! Jesus Christ is the Lamb of God that takes away the Sin of the world. He gave up his life like Samson did, and Saved all who put their trust in him.
There are no pillars to take your hands off…you invented that scenario…it is not what is said in the Bible since there is no “pillars of heaven or hell”….God only offered humans life or death….obey me and live….as opposed to disobey me, and die. Where did God change that? Where did Christ change that?We’re Saved by Grace through Faith in the Resurrected Savior Jesus Christ, without Works lest we boast; this is when you can take your hand off Hell’s pillar! Repent of your Sins, Confess Jesus Christ as your Lord God and join a Bible believing Church. ~ Do you believe the whole Bible but think others don’t? Ask yourself; “Is his Verse good or bad for my Doctrine?” When his Verse is Fundamentally true but bad for your doctrine, maybe you’re the one who doesn’t believe all the Bible?
Scripture Alone ~ by ReverendRV * September 17Interesting take on Samson….but not exactly on point, IMO.

Judges 2::12, 14, 16-19, explains where Israel was spiritually speaking….
“They abandoned Jehovah the God of their fathers who had brought them out of the land of Egypt and went following other gods from among the gods of the peoples who were all around them and they began bowing down to them, so that they offended Jehovah. . . . .
At this Jehovah’s anger blazed against Israel and he gave them into the hands of the pillagers and they began to pillage them, and he proceeded to sell them into the hand of their enemies round about and they were no longer able to stand before their enemies. . . . .
So Jehovah would raise up judges and they would save them out of the hand of their pillagers. And even to their judges they did not listen, but they had unfaithful intercourse with other gods and went bowing down to them. . . . And when Jehovah did raise up judges for them, Jehovah proved to be with the judge and he saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge, for Jehovah would feel sorry for their groaning because of their oppressors and those who were shoving them around. And it occurred that when the judge died they would turn around and act more ruinously than their fathers by walking after other gods to serve them and bow down to them.”
Samson was one of only a few who were predestined by God to save his people. (Judges 13:1-5)
His story fits in well with the times.
Samson was not a scoundrel at all but he was used in the times to do the will of God.

There is no ECT.

What “Bible believing church” would you recommend since there are literally thousands of them today, all claiming to be saved, and to teach the truth.
How many truths are there?
