Does UR include animals?

I keep saying this:  If not all are saved, how can God ever be All in all?

Absolutely  :iagree:  :dsunny:

Ellen White was a great writer, or so the little bit I've read..

Yes she was, but keep in mind that her theology involved eternal destruction of the wicked.

Why not? God created animals too, and many humans love animals Does God not love the animals he created? For the record, I am not concerned about sharing this truth with people because I feel it is more important to spread the good news that pertains to humans, but I do believe every living creature will be reconciled back to God.

Excellent point! :thumbsup:

Opponents of UR often make the latter claim about humans, saying that God will make a new earth with new human creations who have been spiritually born again and physically resurrected (and in this way reconcile humanity in general) but not every human who has ever lived will be saved.

What are your thoughts about this?

Don't see it that way.

The gnats will not bother you in the new earth, and neither will the flies, ticks, mosquitoes, spiders, or snakes...

Absolutely! :iagree: ..but that is one step up from eternal torture :gsmile:
..also, I'm not sure but I think there may also be a bit of "law" with "grace" to be saved?? Of course that's in a lot of other denominations also..
Won't it be great when all believers (and eventually all people) believe and understand only Truth?! :banana: :dsunny:

Ugh I hate mosquitoes. I read a quote somewhere from some theologian that said "God never makes mistakes, but mosquitoes come close." LOL

Among her followers, mostly the Seventh-Day Adventists, there is an undercurrent of legalism and "You should not do that because Sister White said not to."  I say this as an ex-Adventist.
