Yes God, no Satan and no translations. His strength is made prefect in weakness and God's word is His providence, not that of men who translate. The truth must be spiritually discerned, by design.

And about this: So the Lord God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, You are cursed more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you shall go, And you shall eat dust All the days of your life. 15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And...

Welcome Freedm! Sorry, but there is quite a bit of misunderstanding if not error in that. Certainly, misunderstandings should be made clear. Given the benefit of the doubt, yes there are contradictions in translations, but not in the scriptures. Such would-be contradictions are due rather to a...

My wife does the same thing when someone asks for directions, even when they don't. ;) She, who has a poor sense of direction will step up, often cutting in front of me to give her two cents worth giving no clear direction or help. But I love her...and yes, she has many other great qualities...

Yes, it is written "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse." Romans 1:20

You are violating context against many other scriptures that say just the opposite. Again, you are not reconciling all scripture, simply to support your own doctrine and desire. But it is not bad to have such a desire--even God has that same desire...but He also states that all are not saved...

I am not here to agree or disagree. This is a time of correction and the revealing of the whole mystery of God unto all truth. There is no debating.

And you are again forgetting the enemy who sank the ship...and the rats.

From condemnation from God.

That's not what I asked. Of course Jesus saves all who are given to him by the Father. But that is not what I asked and not the issue. I specifically asked where scripture says that God saves "all evil", meaning even Satan.

But you have forgotten the wolves. In other words, your theology is like claiming that God will save all the sheep and all the wolves. What scripture tells of God saving all evil? There is none.

No, the contradiction is you applying God's wrath upon evil to those He has elected for salvation. In other words, if you said "I will kill a bear to save my family", your would-be contradiction is like saying, "I will kill a bear and my family." You are not "rightly dividing the word of truth."

Your misunderstanding is not the measure of what is true. As for a plethora of scripture, you have no room to comment, for you yourself apparently rejected the very idea of God's judgment and chosing as a potter chooses what to fire and what to discard. Best learn to reconcile all that is...

For the Lord will not cast off forever. "Cast off" in that context simply refers to the fact that the end is indeed coming as promised. That is, it refers to God having driven mankind from the garden. Genesis 3:24

Thank you. But translation variable is no different than a difference in understanding. Such things are of men, not all of whom are to be trusted. Only God is correct. So, unless you are willing to stake all your believes and understanding on the idea that God and forever is not forever, then...

No, and such a position is not stated in the scriptures. As for the other verses, they are not false, but often misunderstood. The problem is such verses must be reconciled to all of what is written...and your "but not forever" position does not reconcile all.

:) I don't have the numbers in my head, only the words. I looked it up. Here's a freeby: Daniel 12:2 And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting contempt.

That position assumes that there are none who perish...which cannot be truthfully stated, as the scriptures say there are. Consider therefore, that yes, all come "under His feet" and are turned over to the Father...but as Danial writes, "Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting...

While I agree, this perhaps should be addressed. God refers to the complete mystery of God being finished "as He declared to His servants the prophets." Meaning that, yes, at any given time no one person has a full and accurate understanding of God....but, it is also true that "all truth" is...

Very close indeed.
