Although God have Himself as a ransom for all, this does not mean that all will be redeemed. For those who are redeemed must leave their cages and walk out into freedom; or else they are still held captive to their cages.

I need you to elaborate more on why you think this means there is no hell... Make a clearer and concise case for your pov.

Why don't you tell me what you think that verse means in relation to the conversations that we have been having?

I'm interested in how you factor in these verses in order to come to the conclusion that you have come to.

The English is sufficient for me. Realize, that we no longer have any of the original Greek manuscripts. So then, our receiving of the word of the Lord is based in things that have been translated into English for us; and I, personally, believe that God, being both Omnipotent, and Sovereign...

Jesus paid the price for sin concerning those who would receive Him and the eternal sacrifice that He made. In Romans 6:22, it becomes clear that the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross sets us free from sin, so that we become servants to God, and have our fruit unto holiness. The end is...

The references in question prove everlasting conscious torment in hell. Unless you can prove otherwise?

He appears to be saying that the "willful sin" being spoken of means to reject the work of the blood of Jesus in your life. There is a sense in which this means to reject sanctification and to intentionally sin against the Lord; because the blood of Jesus does not only justify (as per Romans...

I am talking about the recent past; not the present or the future.

I think that I have to disagree with you there. To sin willfully means to sin with intention; it does not only refer to rejection of Jesus as Saviour and Lord. While to sin willfully is a rejection of the blood sacrifice that Jesus provided for us.

Matthew 13:41-42, Matthew 13:49-50, and Matthew 25:46 together. Also Matthew 7:23 and Matthew 25:41.

Right...because my spiritual gift is not teaching but word of wisdom... I do not need to have a flattering title of being called "pastor" or "teacher" on these forums (see Job 32:22); but if I do indeed do the work of teaching the body of Christ here, then that is the work that I do. If I am...

Hi @stredaleve, Why do you think that God will not forgive you? I think that you are being lied to by the enemy, see John 6:37.

@Blood Bought 1953, I would appreciate it if you would give the teaching in your own words so that I can respond to you rather than your teacher concerning this issue. What have you gleaned from what this teacher/ these teachers have taught?

is this all that it means to "sin willfully"?

1Pe 2:21, For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: 1Pe 2:22, Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:

I think that maybe, the Holy Spirit has me following you around the threads because He does not forgive you for what you said about Him...calling Him a "seducing spirit"...you continue to do this without repenting. I want you to know that I consider you to be a preacher of sound doctrine. But...

The Supreme Court has ruled in favour of freedom of religion in my state, at the very least.

I wanted to see what his take might be on the subject, actually. That is what the Bible teaches (Matthew 7:13-14, Luke 13:22-30).

@Blood Bought 1953, the OP.
