They’re the same picture

After finishing my post on the many differences between the Israel of God (and their Gospel of the Circumcision) and the body of Christ (and our Gospel of the Uncircumcision) — which you can find here — and being told by someone who read it that they still can’t see the clear pattern of differences between the… Continue reading They’re the same picture

Kingdom come?

Is the kingdom of God a present reality or a future promise? One of the biggest mistakes one can make when it comes to the question of whether the kingdom already exists or whether it’s still yet to fully begin on earth is to assume the answer is anything other than: Yes. Recently, due to… Continue reading Kingdom come?

“…all men, especially…”

There are lots of other passages I can use as well, and I have in other places on this website, but I can show you, using two simple verses of Scripture, that God will save all humanity.

Repent and believe the Gospel before it’s too late, or else you’ll end up in hell for all eternity!” ”Are you absolutely certain about that?” I asked. “If I… Continue reading There’s only one way we can be saved, right?

Why I am a heretical Universalist

Before I explain why I’m now a heretical Universalist, It’s important to know that I grew up as a conservative, evangelical, “born-again” Christian, and that I believed quite strongly in all of the traditional, “orthodox” ideas that nearly every evangelical Christian out there assumes is taught in Scripture. This means that I believed in the… Continue reading Why I am a heretical Universalist
