I thought it might be useful to have a thread of short little affirmations, conclusions and short verses about UR, which can be easily remembered and used (repeated:)) [Put into images for social networking?]

I'll do the first post of an 'affirmation' came to my mind to get us started... :smile:

The Kingdom of God is within all the believers. One day it will be within all. And thus, the world will be ruled by the Kingdom, and the Kingdom will be its substance. God (surely?) can only be Perfect. Therefor there is no other probable outcome.


Postscript/edit - therefor there is no other possible outcome!

Marie, clinch that by using "possible" instead of "probable."  :2c: :2c: :2c: :2c: :2c:
Socrates taught Plato.  Plato taught Aristotle.  Aristotle tutored the son of Philip of Macedon.  This boy grew up to become Alexander the Great, largely by slaughtering a lot of people.  That's philosophy.

Jesus spoke the Truth.  He blessed the poor.  He healed the sick.  He even raised the dead.  He died on a cross for us, lived again, and came back long enough to tell us to love one another.  That's religion.

YHVH = Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand = Jesus

Good idea, Marie!

Every knee will someday and bow, and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord to the glory of God, and the Father has gone so far as to swear that everyone will take an oath to Him.

God is summing up all things into Jesus Christ as the Head of creation, and this shall consummate with the Father Himself being All in All.

Genesis 1:1 & John 1:3

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.  [no mention of God creating Hell]

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.  [if God didn't make Hell, nobody else did, either]

God's angel declared that, Jesus being born as LORD and SAVIOUR would be GOOD NEWS that would bring GREAT JOY to ALL people.
Quote
Luk 2:10  And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
Luk 2:11  For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

(Rev. 5:13) And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb forever and ever.

Doesn't leave anything out imo.

 Amen! :thumbsup: that has to be one of the prettiest verses in the bible!



Luke 13:20-21 - "And again He said, "To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? ...It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal til it was all leavened."

2 Peter 2:1 'But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them...

this astounding verse says that even these 'false teachers' and 'false prophets' have been bought by Jesus...by His blood. Jesus blood covers even the worst heretics :dsunny:

1 John 4:8 God is love.

Love is the essence of God's character. Love permeates all God is and all God does. Love is not the way God is at certain moments and then not at other moments. Whatever God is doing is always rooted in God's essential character as love. Everything God does is loving, even though the love may not be readily apparent to each person.
That God is in essence love, and not a mixture of love and other things, I regard as the most important conclusion which can be reached about God. For if God is not pure love, but some mixture of love and other motivations, then we cannot ever be confident about the actions of our creator.
Fortunately, if we want to know what love is, we are provided a detailed definition in the following passage from 1st Corinthians.

1 Corinthians 13: 4-8
4 Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. 7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never ends.

This passage defines the character of love, which bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things, and never ends. If God is love, and if this definition of love is accurate, then here we have a Biblical description of the love of God towards each and every soul. God loves each soul. God bears all for each soul. God believes all for each soul. God hopes all for each soul. God endures all for each soul. God never gives up on a soul. Each soul is tremendously valuable to God. God does not do this because God has to do it. God does it because it is God's nature. It's who God is.

Taking all of this into consideration, if there is ever a case in which God completely and utterly gives up on a soul, at that point we could still say many things about God, but we could no longer, I believe, say God is love.

Another characteristic of love is how love extends itself even towards enemies. This is the kind of love Jesus said characterized the love of God.

Matthew 5:43-45
43 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be children of your Father in heaven;

Jesus here teaches his followers to love their enemies in order to be like their Father in heaven. Loving enemies is not something Jesus commanded only because it was the right thing to do in some abstract way. Loving enemies, in the eyes of Jesus, is the right thing to do because it is what the Father in heaven does.

We infer from this that God is an enemy lover. This further confirms how God loves us unconditionally, whether we are now in the state of being God's friend or enemy.

Conclusion: God, being in essence love, loves us unconditionally. Nothing we do makes God love us less. Nothing we do makes God love us more. God loves us not because of who we are, but because of who God is. Nothing will ever stop God from loving us, because God is love and love bears all, believes all, hopes all, endures all, and never ends.
"I have sworn by Myself, The word has gone forth from My mouth in righteousness And will not turn back, That to Me every knee will bow, every tongue will swear allegiance".Isaiah 45:23

1 Samuel 14:6c(?) "Nothing can hinder YHWH from saving by many or by few."

Eventually He elected to save the many (all) the few (one). I'm surprised I don't see this more often it seems very clear in what it says and equally seems very favourable to our thinking.
