My faith now rests not on me, or how Im feeling but on the fact that I trust that God will do what he says he will. (Save all of us).
To be honest, I'm not striving to be 'first in line'. I guess I should be, but I'm not. Nor do I want a great reward from God, to be honest, I'll actually just be glad to make it into Heaven nevermind be the first one there or the one with the greatest reward.
Maybe that will change one day.
My faith in the last few months has been up and down and up and down (as many of you know), but has finally landed (at last), and so I have come to believe that God will eventually save all of mankind and am starting to contribute to the spreading of what I have been taught and what I have learned from others, as well as carefully giving my own thoughts on the subject.
I find that I could NEVER go back to believing contrary to Universalism, the evidence for it, and the sheer logic of it is compelling and too great to possibly ignore, so although i never really knew if i would ever be able to believe it all (although i knew in my heart), i can say now, that i do beleive it all and accept it with open arms.
...So i made a utube account, dedicated mostly to sharing with others what I know of Universalism. Please note, i am still a 'babe' in terms of the Bible, and really have no great desire to 'work everything out', but feel that I know enough on the matter to share it now with others, i do believe that its better my videos are made than not made (if that makes sense), because although i dont know everything about everything, i do know enough to get people started on their 'Universalism' journey, and I hope to see a rise in the teaching of this good news.
...So here is my utube if anyone fancies checking it out at some point.

Also, i would like to see others do the same, and help to spread the good news? I think utube is one of the best ways of doing it, I really do, so i hope that others will consider popping out a video every so often, because the more the merrier i say...Lets get out the dark ages!

Welcome back, have subscribed to you channel
TBH I'm still not sure universalism is true, my heart wants it to be true but I can't see it no matter how I try, but if it isn't then consider me deconverted as I can't go back to what I was before, if UR is untrue then I'd have to become deist

Brother you don't know how much you are light years ahead of so many "bible scholars".
You GOT The message the book was trying to convey.
"Go and Love!"
You are a bright, shining light in this world.
I'm so glad you are on youtube.

FriendofMankind -
I'm listening right now to one of your messages on Youtube. It is like a Christmas gift to me. It makes me happy to listen to your message and hear your accent which sounds Scottish. Thanks for taking the time to make these and share them with us. Your humility restores my waning faith in people's capacity for virtue.
Peace -
Anne
Aw thanks guys, very nice of you all, hope that perhaps some of you will consider doing the same...Its actually quite fun, especially just making videos with scripture passages etc. I just have to be careful I tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth lol. :HeartThrob:
