Paul was speaking there of all acknowledging what is actually true, when going before the Lord in the Judgement. At which point, "some" as the scriptures also say rise up to everlasting life, but also "some to everlasting contempt" (meaning an eternal continuance of separation from God based on their own contempt).

Which is not to say that God has not take mercy on "all", but that all have not received it by their own evil. In this way, darkness is not "saved", but rejected and eliminated, by the same measure, by choice.
Consider the definition of "acknowledge" in Philippians 2:11.

Note on "acknowledge" in Philippians 2:11 from Strong's Concordance
S1843 eksomologéō (from 1537 /ek, "wholly out from," intensifying 3670 /homologéō, "say the same thing about") – properly, fully agree and to acknowledge that agreement openly (whole-heartedly); hence, to confess ("openly declare"), without reservation (no holding back).

Yes, that is the measure of each person's choice as fully acknowledged and confirmed, and the dividing the light from the darkness for all eternity.

- Can anyone say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit? (1 Cor. 12:3)
- If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,”will you will be saved? (Rom. 10:9)
- Did Jesus Christ die and return to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living? (Rom. 14:9)

1 Corinthians 12:3
Therefore I want you to know that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus be cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

Romans 10:9
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart
that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Romans 14:9
For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that
he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.

Paul spoke of the same act as being one act: As life everlasting to those in Christ, and death to those not in Christ...all as the fulfillment of Joel's prophecy, made possible and arranged by Christ, and confirmed by Peter, of God pouring out His spirit upon all flesh. Life or death by the same Spirit.
correct the fullfillment of joels prophecy . Yet many are still looking for this latter rain etc .
It began ON the day of pentecost . The indwelling of the HOLY GHOST , and all who would believe on Christ Jesus .
Yet still there is the actual coming day of the LORD that is nigh to come .
On that day those who are still alive will be caught up with HIM ,
As for the world , woe unto those for they denied the love of the truth whereby they could have been saved .
We can read where later in acts peter also quoates in amos
and speaks of this rebuilding of the Temple . YET he shows us how it pointed to CHRIST and the gospel .
To the heavenly temple not made of men but of GOD . Yet again
many are now hoping in this earthly temple to be built in Jerusalem and they think this is what Amos was speaking of
when in fact peter shows us what amos was indeed prophesying of ............
The more we stay in the scriptures , the more we shall learn and not be as so many
caught up with the precepts of contrary men whereby they have decieved many .
This is why i so often beg and remind folks to just get in the bible again for themselves . Things will get clearer .

accursed . as in cast out . in other words anyone who is truly speaking by the SPIRIT
would not be following false religoins at all . all other religoins seperate Christ OUT , they do not beleive .
So the muslims and all other religoins ARE INDEED false , do not have the SPIRIT and do not KNOW GOD
and are in deadly and dire grave danger , lest they do COME to CHRIST JESUS , confessing HIM as LORD
as CHRIST . IF ONE TRULY IS born again of GOD
they would be CALLING JESUS CHRIST LORD . not muhammed , not any other religion .
And if they are calling JESUS LORD and yet their jesus supports sin , they again its not JESUS CHRIST they do follow or know.
One would think this would be so simple to grasp and understand , and yet so many no longer even know
this simple truth .

Is that an argument for "universal" salvation for all? Because you didn't leave out what is self-evident against it.

The "will be saved" (past perfect tense) promise is only for those who "declare" before crossing the chasm between heaven and earth guarded with flaming swords of fire. Is God not a consuming fire? Yes. Do all in the crossing have the blood of the Lamb over the threshold? No. Thus, as it is written "some" rise unto everlasting life, while others unto everlasting contempt (unsaved).

As for Jesus Christ dying for both the dead and the living: The dead are of the house of Israel and the chosen who died before salvation came, while the living are those who receive new life after, but before dying in the flesh.

You are speaking in accord with that foretold "lie" of a mass rapture and future second coming event, a doctrine against Jesus coming "soon" and all that 2,000 years ago "must shortly come to pass", and the return of Jesus individually to "each one in his own order" since Pentecost according to: "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me."

The actual truth, is the second coming of Christ, is per person individually, since Pentecost. The "lie" has run its course and is now revealed.
