hi Chester!
This is a very good list here in the forum - https://tentmaker.org/forum/arguments-against-universal-salvation/77-ultimate-reconciliation-scriptures/
One of my favorites is how the Lord said He will “draw all to Himself” and the greek translated draw could read drag.. but I think mostly He draws. :gsmile:
And 1 Corinthians 15:22 - “For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.”
I also like the rest that go with this, to verse 28..
— “23 But each one in his own order: (1)Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ’s (2)at His coming. 24 Then comes the end, (3)when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father” (who is a consuming/purifying fire) “when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power. 25 For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet. 26 The last enemy that will be destroyed is death. 27 For “He has put all things under His feet.” But when He says “all things are put under Him,” it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted. 28 Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.” - which reminds me of the parable “the kingdom is like a woman working leaven into 3 loaves, until is leavened” - it’s kind if weird to specifically day 3 loaves. I couldn’t remember the number of the verse, but now I do - Mt.13:33 :laughing7: ...but how could I forget.. :gsmile: oh I forgot “all” until all - “holos” - the whole, complete
