Hi Hobie. WIll not all sinners come to repentance? Meaning metanoia, a change of mind, μετάνοια? That which convinces a person that they must believe in Christ in order to be made clean of their sins? That furnace of fire you mention in Matthew 13:40-51 is like the fire a blacksmith uses. Do...

Hi quietthinker, It's true that human families ended up inherting the short stick because of being Adam's descendant. But then, who did Adam inherit his sin from? Well, he was the sinner. I see similarities here with Satan's position, where Satan specifically chose to rebel against God...

My mother tells me to stop spreading my UR Bible papers, today Aug 14 2023, saying how, because of the way the Ukraine war is going, if Canada becomes more actively involved, I could get drafted into the military. She says I should just wait for my death there. Yet, we are already in...

Hi ButterflyJones. I can understand the Human CU. Not sure who came up with the term "Radical CU" but the way I see it, Satan is a rational being. One example is how Satan can have dialogue with the LORD Job 1:7 The LORD said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Satan answered the Lord and...

Hi Jack, This argument can essentially apply to any sort of concept that you personally interpret as belonging to Satan and is not an argument towards Christian Universalism specifically. A Chrisitan Universalist could essentially use that exact same verse in regards to ECT and it would be the...

I'm typing this verse while waiting in the dentist office lobby. I was brushing my teeth today, Aug 11 2023, and my father called me upstairs. He saw a suspicious email so I saw that the domain email address was from a different source then the name who they claimed they were, so it was most...

Hell? You mean the one from Norse Mythology? There's Sheol/Hades/Gehenna/Tartarus but.... I don't see any "hell" here in the Hebrew/Greek biblical scriptures my friend Jack lol but assuming you refer to the Lake of Fire, we see that being in the lake of fire is a state of being "cast out" Yet...

There’s also the Greek myth of hell ruled by the false underworld god “Hades”. Some people I spoke to tried to falsely claim that Christianity was “mythological” because it also used the word “Hades”, specifically, ᾍδης, ου, ὁ Strong’s Greek 86. My rebuttal is that the Biblical Hades meaning...
