Seems like a safe bet. - LOL Is this animal worth saving? Or is it too far gone? [

Acts of desperation. He will answer for his deeds, all the way back to the beginning. Agree. With the exception of Matthew 5:43-48. (see below) But that is not about what Satan will do. It's about what God will do. Ultimately, my beliefs about Universalism center on the character of God. Is...

I think God saves us despite ourselves. His love is unstoppable. [

There is something to that. But what do we imagine that's God's ultimate plan (Logos) was in the beginning? Did he create a universe, and humankind in his own image, only to stand by and watch it all implode while doing nothing to redeem it? What will the end game be? Will there be an...

You seem to understand. Many Christians claim that we have absolute truth. But we don't. We couldn't handle it. [

What "Law" are you talking about? - The Law, the Books of the Law - The law, that God gave to the Israelites alone through Moses - God's law, of human conscience given to all of humankind - Christ's law, given in the new covenant...

Adultery was against God's law of human conscience before the law was given to the Israelites alone through Moses. Same with murder. Why was it wrong for Cain to murder his brother? The law had not yet been given. So, you have manufactured a Mark of the Beast as NOT following the law we are...

St. SteVen said: Galatians 5:18 NIV But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Sounds like a bunch of double-talk to me. Are you under the law or not? Does surpassing the law negate it, or support it? Who is the REAL deceiver here? If the mind and...

St. SteVen said: The wood, hay, and stubble will be burned away, revealing the precious stones. Do you really believe that God is incapable of working good in the lives of anyone he chooses? Perhaps you hold the Calvinist view of total depravity? [
