How would you feel if God saved all of Humanity?
Seek who He truly is
I posted this question not too long ago in hope to read positive results and in hope to open spiritual eyes to see this as a possibility. I personally believe that God saved all of humanity, and there was some wonderful answers. But it was no surprise to get theological responses. What surprised me was that most of the responses were church theology responses and very few responses of gratitude. It hit me that most of those who answered with theology instead of gratitude came across as if they didn’t want all to be saved. The question is, how would you feel if God saves all of humanity? My answer is; There is nothing more beautiful or wonderful for that matter, than a deity who can and will save all of its creation, and therefore, I am and always will be grateful to such a God. Such a God is the true example of what Mercy and love is all about. This example of love and mercy is not conceivable in humanity, let alone the Christian community. We as Christians have lost so much in truth as to who our divine Father truly is. We call Him a God of unconditional love, but it us who put conditions on it. We know that God also commands us to love, bless and forgive our enemies, but we make Him set the example of how He treats His enemies by letting them be eternally tortured roasting without any hope in some place called hell and call that justice. God says in 1Tim 2:3-4 that He desires and wills all to be saved, but we say that God desires, wills and can only hope all are saved. God says in 1Tim 4:10 that He is the saviour of all mankind, especially the believers, but we Christians say that He is the saviour of believer only. God says in Rom 8:37-39, that there is nothing that can separate us from His love, but we Christians say that it is our free will that can separate us from God forever. God says in John 15:16 that God chooses us, but we say that we must choose Christ. God says in Philippians 2:13 that He works in us to will and to do of His good pleasure, but we say that It is NOTHING that works in you to will and to do because you have a free will that is not caused by anything, including God. God says in Jeremiah 32:27 that He is the God of all, and that there is nothing He can't do, but we say there is one thing that is too hard for God: the salvation of ALL mankind. Does the church believe the fire in I Cor.3:15 burns mans’ works, but not the man himself? Yes. But does the church teach that this same fire in Rev.20:15 also burns works, not the man? No. Does the church believe that God absolutely "knows all" (I John 3:20)? Yes. But does it teach that God knows in advance ALL who will reject Christ? No. There never seems to be an end to scriptural contradictions in Christian beliefs, but praise be given to God who encourages us to seek His treasure dug deep in the bible, as the journey continues, the treasures found in scripture are truly inspiring and divine, and gives me a feeling of absolute joy in knowing He has save all mankind.
It has been six months now since I wrote this hub, and not much has changed among the Christian belief system. I find that the more opened minded the Christian believer is, the more they except the belief of universal reconciliation of all with God, and the more they are filled with Joy and peace. However, I do want to share a secret with you. I have believed in universal reconciliation now for a number of years, but there are times (moments), that I wished there was a hell. Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful for my belief in UR, but when I see the evil in the world where brother or sister commit such evil to another sibling, there are times I want this judgment. It is my carnal desire for justice. An eye for an eye. So I cannot in good faith blame those who would not find heaven appealing if even the most evil of all people are saved in the end. This feeling I get at times troubles me. I believe it was my Lord, who brought me to this way of thinking or wanting this form of justice to show me that I too have this plank in my eye. Pride is a horrible thing that can so easily slip into a Christians attitude. Peace on earth.
