Skeptic at Heart
« on: June 18, 2009, 05:54:47 AM »
It has been 20 years since I was first given some literature written by J. Preston Eby.  What an amazing concept Universal Restoration is.  I was raised in a traditional Baptist home.  I still have my doubts at times, since I am bombarded by traditional ideology, but it is nice to find a community to discuss my skepticism.

I understand.  Sometimes it's hard to not at least wonder.  One thought.  God - not all in some, or all in what's left, but All in All (I Cor. 15:28). 

Welcome!

Welcome man! Skepticism has always been a blessing in my life! Certainly it has its downsides, but over all, God's used it to bless me! If I wasn't a skeptic (that is, of what I was taught about Christianity) I wouldn't have gotten to the point where I believe in UR (even if I still have my doubts). God brings much healing though, and I'm sure he'll see me through this way of thinking as well.

God bless ya!

Hatred stirs up dissension,
    but LOVE covers over ALL wrongs.
