I was out looking at some other sites, including a Universalist blog and some facebook stuff. I'll admit, I ended up a bit disturbed. To me, there is a frightening array of apostacy out there - advocating for things that are clearly otherwise defined in the scriptures, promotion of New Age philosophies ("it's about love", not necessarily trust in Jesus Christ; and all beliefs are OK, they're leading to God), and doubting and criticizing the legitimacy of the scriptures (pick and choose what you want, who knows what's inspired or not,etc.). There are so many voices within Christianity, including Universalism, that I just have a hard time identifying with. I began to think "I don't fit".
But then it made me think of the group of believers here at Tentmaker; how, although we may have our little temper tantrums and toss a few plates of food at each other now and again, still by far, the majority of the folks here still look to and esteem Jesus as the Savior, and properly translated and Spirit-revealed scripture as trustworthy. I'll tell you, it melts my heart and makes me appreciate the group of believers that gather here. We may even be in the minority in some ways, i.e., not chasing vain imaginations of the foolish human mind that sets itself above the Master, but when you look around out there, it sure can make one appreciate our brothers and sisters here.
God bless you. :HeartThrob:
James,
6 billion people 6 billion views.
Gary, certainly a devoted UR man. Same for Ray. I never seen a debate between them but I'm sure they at least have one different view on a certain subject.
So with 6 billion people we have 6 billion shades of gray. From ET to ED to UR. Or from Christianity to buddhism to new age.
So I would be suprised that you did not find what you wrote.
People just join the group that shares most of their believes.
Locked threads show the believes that are not shared.
:winkgrin:
Tony, let me try to be more clear about my thoughts and feelings. I'm not really talking about differing views. I believe we have a healthy spectrum of that here.
I'm really talking about this;

I guess I
expect the world to act like the world, and an unbeliever to act like an unbeliever. But when people call themselves
Christian Universalists, maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I would expect they'd hold to Jesus as the
only Way to the Father, and the written Word as a standard by which to go. Then when I look around I am reminded that many don't, and I see the apostate slippery slopes to which that leads, i.e., one can then conjure up any doctrinal fantasies the mind can imagine (and do :bsad:). By comparison it highlights the faithfulness of the group here, having
both their differences
and agreements with
respect for the scriptures and Jesus as THE WAY - as I said, it makes me appreciate the TM family more. :thumbsup:
I understand you James.
But different views for example can lead to groups of people that feel Scripture can't be fully trusted because man made copy/translation errors.
Or because Jesus died for mankind it no longer matters if people believe in Him. Saved=saved.
I once read the view that there is only one thing that get you in heaven or hell.
People that get buried goto heaven. Those that get cremated goto hell.
So I'm not easily suprised...

The name of Jesus is very powerful. I've seen it over and over again. Paul says that to them who are perishing, Christ crucified is foolishness. I would choose the more powerful connotation of that Greek word, 'absurd.' They consider it 'absurd' that the crucifixion of Jesus should have anything to do with them. What they are really saying is shut your mouth, stop talking about Jesus, it's absurd.
Imagine hearing that in a 'Christian' church--where even atheists are welcomed. Welcome to the world of the antichrist.
So, when Oprah says there are 'many ways to God,' what God is she talking about? She's pretending to be 'religious,' but is she really talking about the god, Satan? Our Bible tells us there are many ways to Satan--the road is wide.
Where I live, the universalist churches are the Oprah book of the month club. I won't even walk through their doors, and I wince when my friends describe the services, just like they wince when I mention the name of Jesus.
Every universalist church should be run like this board. If you want to announce that everyone will be saved that should always be coupled with--but there is only one name under heaven by whom you will be saved. And, there is only one Way to God.
:cloud9: I know exactly what you mean, Jab......they that have fallen to the New Age mantras have been led away of their own lusts, unless God led them to "go there". There is only one reason for going into that "kingdom" and that is to learn the language so you can be used to speak to bring the others out of that prison. God's version of a "translator". :laughing7: Blessings....
We also have a tremendous opportunity among those people. Many of them are where they are because they could find no alternative to the "hell and damnation" religion that masquerades as Christianity. Sometimes I prefer their company.
As unseemly as it sounds, the gospel must be "rehabilitated" before some of them can have the veil removed so that the god of this world is no longer blinding their eyes to the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ, the Saviour of All.
I personally identify even less with the gospel whose god is content with the endless torment of billions of souls than I do with the god who is wearing 17 different faces and names.
At least I can tell them (as Paul did at Mars Hill; Acts 17) that my Jesus loves them all and my Father will have them all as One in the grand plan of things. Perhaps, when a few of them see that, they will bow the knee and confess with their tongue that Jesus is Lord of ALL- because He died to SAVE THEM ALL.
Come, let us reason together, though your sins be as scarlet, I will make them white as snow. Ho, everyone who thirsts, come, drink freely of the water of life.
When I look at all the groups, I am likewise daunted. But when I just put one foot in front of the other one day at a time- every individual I meet is either thirsty (give that little one a drink of water for His names sake), or not (yet the spirit is hovering over the face of the waters, perhaps a word in season Today will later generate a thirst for the living water).
When I am wise enough tell the ones who oppose themselves that Jesus loves them and walk away (when the conversation begins to grow fruitless), I walk away in the confidence that He loves them more than I, and the spirit of truth will finish the work in His way and time. Peace, John
"For while I was passing through and examining the objects of your worship, I also found an altar with this inscription, 'TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.' Therefore what you worship in ignorance, this I proclaim to you.
"The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; nor is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, since He Himself gives to all people life and breath and all things;
and He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation, that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him,
though He is not far from each one of us; for in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, 'For we also are His children.'
(Act 17:23-28)
Wow....I love Jesus, the Logos of God.
Good posts guys. Thanks. :angelharp: Music to the ears [heart].

Don't lie, you were calling whitewings a big girls blouse :laughing7:
I think that probably the greatest gift God has given me is a hunger to know God and His Word. That's because the greatest gift He's given me is The Holy Spirit and The Holy Scriptures; yet, without the desire to pursue, obtain and experience God, as well as the drive to understand what He's said that makes me read and study, I would wither back into the world. We are lead by hunger. Still, it isn't easy to keep digging when everyone around you is so nonchalant about the things of God. Actually, it is often hostility to open sharing of His Word, and not just about "The Greater Hope" either. Solomon said, "Whoever is wise, is wise for himself alone." It looks a lot different after years of that kind of being alone.
Notice how "one another in the Lord" should be alongside our greatest gifts, yet it is still lacking realization. When it's not about giving the fruit of your search to those who appreciate it, but it is only for your own edification, there is a loss of motivation. Over and over, for years at a time since I've known the LORD, I find there's not one person or family to whose house I can go to find fellowship with those delighting in what God is doing or what we're finding in the Word. It is not just agreement about certain doctrines I'm pointing to. It's about sharing more about Jesus. The hungry wick draws the oil for the flame to consume. No hunger and your lamp goes out.
Traditions of Institutional Christianity are significantly to be blamed. When all we can do is be enablers for the man on stage, passive audiences for a professional preacher with titles of honor from other men, we never exercise to our own spiritual development when we meet, critiquing one another's expression of Christ. The Church is not on the program. All we learn to do after 40 years is to sit down and shut up. Little wonder I meet so many Christians with whom I can only have a one way conversation.
One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. (Psa 27:4; AV)
Luke 10:38-42; AV:
38 Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
40 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
Philippians 3:8-14; Concordant Literal Translation:
8 But, to be sure, I am also deeming all to be a forfeit because of the superiority of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, because of Whom I forfeited all, and am deeming it to be refuse, that I should be gaining Christ,
9 and may be found in Him, not having my righteousness, which is of law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is from God for faith:
10 to know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, conforming to His death,
11 if somehow I should be attaining to the resurrection that is out from among the dead.
12 Not that I already obtained, or am already perfected. Yet I am pursuing, if I may be grasping also that for which I was grasped also by Christ Jesus.
13 Brethren, not as yet am I reckoning myself to have grasped, yet one thing --forgetting, indeed, those things which are behind, yet stretching out to those in front --
14 toward the goal am I pursuing for the prize of God's calling above in Christ Jesus.

One week the budhists will run the service, one week the wiccans, one week the new-agers, one week the book of the month club. All faiths are equal and welcome. [Atheism is a religion, right?] Jesus is portrayed as a great humanitarian.
Glooory! Living stones....fitly joined together....in the unity of the spirit and the bond of peace....strengthened by the mortar of brotherly love, seeking to serve- not to rule -esteeming one another as better than ourselves. Submitting to Jesus as the head and FREE from any desire to build for ourselves.
Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.

:cloud9: AMEN Molly and Eaglesway.....I've read that scripture a thousand times and never received revelation from it, until yesterday. God is awesome and an endless flow of light, isn't He? :girlheart:
Me too...Jesus' "not one stone left upon another" just keeps on giving.
When I was being granted revelation about the Eclessia a few years ago it seemed I'd been shown so much I thought I had come to a sense of fullness about the matter. Then God revealed a sort of "crown" to the knowledge He'd given. I'd always wondered why Jesus gave so little direct teacning on the Eclessia...until God showed me Jesus' few words were a complete revelation of "the Church!"

I must have misread. I thought you were talking about a Christian church service they shouldn't be welcomed in. Me personally, I find great joy in the thought of the prostitute, drug addict, atheist, homosexual in a Christ centered church. The thought of them being embraced and loved without condoning the sin in my opinion is the epitome of Christ centered.
Amen.

What is the power of God? His Love, and his hatred of Sin which bastardises it...yet still there is his Grace, which forgives all if it, and inspires men to change.

Agreed. Sad but true, that's certainly one of the main thing that happens. Good point. Then there are those that use the name of Jesus, but then go off on all kinds of things clearly against the scriptures - and even against the scriptures themselves. It can be a mess. But God's in control, and He will correct all our error. :thumbsup:

People removing the Christian aspect out of Christian Universalism only proves the scriptures that say;
Romans 3:11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
It is God who must do the calling of us.
Eph 1;3,4 " Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ Who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ, according as HE MADE CHOICE OF US IN HIM BEFORE THE FOUNDING OF THE WORLD. that we might be HOLY and BLAMELESS in His presence; marking us out in love beforehand unto SONSHIP THROUGH JESUS CHRIST FOR HIMSELF, according to the pleasure of HIS WILL."
vs 7 " In Whom we have the redemption THROUGH HIS BLOOD the remission of OUR offences, according to the riches of HIS favour which He made to superabound TOWARDS US."
vs 11 " In Whom we were also taken as an inheritance according to the purpose of Him Who ENERGISES ALL THINGS ACCORDING TO THE COUNSEL OF HIS WILL."
* That is pretty awe inspiring. We are talking about a pretty big picture of such incredible detail and magnitude. And the one running the program has us in that program to highlight the depth of His wisdom and love.
