Before I knew about universalism, I was always in despair, because I couldn't stop sinning. After I learned about about universalism I felt an urge to proclaim: How great the Lord is! And after I did so, I immediately repented for my sins and stopped committing them!

Being a Universalist and Rightly dividing the word of truth, many things in the scripture becomes very clear. God bless you all.

Shalom my brothers and sisters in Christ. Peace be to you. Thank you for this uploaded video. God is the savior of the world. He will reconcile everyone to Himself, all in their own order. No exceptions. How can you know this you might ask. It is the faith OF Christ, not the faith in Christ that ultimately saves everyone. Know the difference. Let no man deceive you...please. May you all come to the knowledge of the Truth that is in Christ, Jesus our Lord. Amen.

John 8:34 “Everyone who sins is a slave to sin. 8:32 “you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free”

The main references to universal salvation in the Gospels are in Mark 3:28 ("all sins will be forgiven"), Matthew 18:12-14 (the lost sheep), and John 12:32 ("I will draw all people unto myself.") and parallel passages. John 21:25 says that Jesus taught many more things that were not recorded, so Jesus probably did teach a lot on universal salvation, but it wasn´t all recorded because he knew the other Biblical authors would deal with it adequately.

The important thing about Jesus was that the Spirit could stay upon Him. Yes, the Spirit could also stay upon John, but only if John followed a rigorous life. Jesus didn't have to refrain from drinking. He could go where all of the sinners were. Because sin must be about more than what you put into your mouth. Sin is about making judgments. The sort of judgments that are made in the heart. The very act of Jesus' presence among the people demonstrated that He didn't judge them. It is only our sense of right and wrong that we picked up in the garden, that also told us we were naked before God, that tells us that God judges us. When it's not busy doing that, it's busy driving wedges between what unifies us as human beings. It is because the Spirit would not leave the man that Jesus rose from the grave. Then, after something like 40 days, you have that same Spirit descend upon the 120. It is no longer a Spirit that cannot stay with people. He will not leave them because they've done something, like drink alcohol, or hurt somebody. He will always be about teaching them that they are loved, not to doubt that and substitute anything else for it. Otherwise, substances only go in and come out. If you can't feel how much you are loved you can do it by faith, filling in those things that you never got from those who should have helped you at the right time. You are just realizing that you can only do so much alone. You aren't even certain if your goals are worth keeping. Maybe they are? Maybe they aren't? The Spirit lives, more or less, in the shape of that. The shape where you got what you needed to make connections. To be patient. He will teach you to listen. He won't give up on you. This isn't like with Adam. I say this as a true universalist. As one who realizes there is no such thing as good and evil. But I had to listen to the Spirit to come to that understanding. I only had to understand why Jesus alone could do what He was doing, bringing the Spirit back to us here on earth, in a way where He could stay with us. But that didn't mean we were done. There was still no hallelujah chorus of angels singing for Jesus, like the apocalyptic messages all seem to tell of. Damn, Middle Ages and twisting upon the pike of philosophy. Dam Industrial Revolution. Damn wars. Damn so many things, but don't damn yourselves for the lessons they should have taught you. The whole exercise, if it's not about sin, if it never was, is about the same thing as bringing the water to the steward at the wedding in Cana. The wine came from one of six stone jars which could be the six stone jars of our history. When presented to the Steward, the version of ourselves that we use to approach such things, we don't have to see it as only water. We can see it as the wine of experience!

I knew instantly that Addison and David Hart are brothers based on their voices and last names.

When Jesus talked about Gahanna he was not referring to the afterlife, but to the upcoming destruction of Jerusalem, and that their system would soon be coming to an end.

I was listening to this without watching and when Addison came up I could swear it was David. They sound so much alike it's uncanny.

Excellent!

Jesus said himself that he was only sent to the Lost House of Israel what Jesus spoke about gehenna had nothing to do with the Gentiles this judgment was the only fall upon Jerusalem also and John's letter to the Gentiles John never once mentioned gehenna why because these judgements did not concern them

"Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." Luke 23:34 "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me." John 12:32 "Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God BEFORE you..." Matthew 21:31

The Bible says our God is a consuming fire ask yourself what he consumes you will find the answer in 1st Corinthians 3 verses 11 through 15 he consumed the wood hay and stubble and in the end you will be saved as of my fire the word fire means pure how much clearer can it be

What about blasphemy against the Holy Ghost?

Love win) Jesus plan about everyone before creation is perfect)

John 12:32

But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

One thing I know about in these days is not everyone will come to the Son of God the Lamb Who died to save us from our sins not to mention a number of verses in the New Testament of the Bible confirm those who say no to the blood He shed on the cross will be judged by the law He kept before He was crucified they will be brought in bondage to what they don't want to be saved from in other words. 1 Corinthians Chapter 6 9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. Galatians Chapter 5 19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 2 Thessalonians Chapter 2 9Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Peter 2:3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. Jude Chapter 1 4For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. 5I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. 6And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. 7Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Revelation Chapter 14 9And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 10The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 11And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. Revelation Chapter 20 14And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Yeah all these verses right here make it pretty clear about where the children of Satan will end up in.

Does salting with fire necessarely means hell? God is fire Himself. Heaven and hell must be ín Hím. Hé is Heaven for the believers and hell for the non believers, no?

John 14:6 NKJV Jesus said to him, “ I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. Jesus is the only way.

Wide is the way to hell. No ?

*"Did Jesus Preach Universalism?"* Not to put too sharp a point on it but, no, He didn't.

Why don't you start off by telling people that there is no hell in the true Hebrew or Greek text from cover to cover, and that Jesus never said it, and the apostles never taught it and then go on with your speech from there,!!!

Yeah whatever

Helo thank you for this beautiful teaching. antichrist." is it a force, a religious system, or an actual person who is in view? if it is a person, is he a mere human being, or is he a supernatural character the devil himself? Demon , perhaps even the offspring of the devil ! Plus are all of creations means satan. Are ultimately redeemed?

Jesus preaching? Sorry kids, Jesus is a mythical construct. That aside if I were forced to attend a "service" I would be most comfortable in a UUC setting. Cheers!

Nope. Read your Bible, and quit letting people read and interpret it for you.

No he didn't. He was pretty clear on that he's the only doorway to the Father. Remember, straight is the gate and narrow is the way? And Ye must be born again? All roads do not lead to eternal salvation, only Jesus Christ does. John 3:18 "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God" No eternal torment? No eternal punishment? 2 Thessalonians 1:9 They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might Matthew 25:46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life Revelation 14:11 And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name Revelation 20:15 And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire These are just a few verses on the subject. You'd have to ignore a lot of scripture to believe &teach universalism, that everyone makes it to heaven regardless of what they believe, that there is no place of eternal punishment, etc. It's simply not scriptural.

No, he didn't. And even if universalism is true (that is, at the final end of all things, all will be restored and God will be all and in all), preaching it seems wildly imprudent. It empties the Gospel of its sense of urgency, which we see explicitly in Jesus' teaching from the beginning: "Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand." For the whole of the Christian church to proclaim universalism would mean the end to ascetic struggle, the need for prayer and repentance, and so on. It would impair both the ethical and the spiritual dimensions of the faith.

I totally disagree Jesus did not preach universalism. Jesus did not advocate repaying evil for evil. Matthew 19:25-26 "When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” John 12:32 "And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.” Luke 9:56 "For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village." Matthew 5:43-48 43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
