One of my facebook notes.SORT OF testimonial and compares the old me to the new.

[DanielB]

One of my notes I shared on facebook about how"When I HOPED I used to pray sometimes for God's will to be done but now I KNOW it is done and thank God that his will IS(and will be) done! When I used to HOPE for God's will to be done all the evil and suffering in this world was a senseless and unfortunate human mistake but now that I KNOW God's will is done evil is still a human mistake but I believe God will use it for good and I know ALL suffering has a good purpose! When I HOPED that God's will is done I would be hurting and depressed when all but the most honorable and christain people died I had heard that you HAD to accept Jesus as your savior in THIS (relatively)short earthly life and while others told me God would "understand" for some cases I suffered, worried, and wondered who would God make exceptions for? "Nice" people? Insanity(all evil is insanity I think)? I figured it was just wishful thinking and even if God made exceptions for some people it was still no comfort to me as long as even one single person would suffer with no end. Now that I KNOW God's will is done(it is God's will that ALL be saved and look it up if you don't believe that already) I do not suffer or fall into depression whenever someone dies or sins and am no longer tortured by hell but my new faith that God's will IS done has taken the "sting" out of death!(it has also given me appreciation of this verse 1 Corinthians 15:55 and others that would have seemed incomprehensible to the old me) KNOW and be thankful that God's will IS(has and will be) done! When has God's will been thwarted before? By sin? Did he not plan for sin? We live in a reality that is ruled by our perfectly wise, powerful, and loving God so why do so many christains think the truth is so terrible and that God's will(for all to be saved) won't be done? To think that our puny human wills could stand in the way of God's will is (to put it bluntly) arrogant and foolish!(I mean no offence to anyone but am I wrong to say that?)" I try to share stuff on facebook and when hell is brought up on or off the internet and try to dispel misconceptions about UR Feel free to share your own UR notes or posts here and offer constructive criticism if you want(I won't take it the wrong way). I may share some more of my notes on this topic.

Amazing what one little doctrine can do.

Great testimony.  Thanks for sharing.

Here is another one(my best "apologetic" one in my opinion) I try to use the KJV when writing or speaking of this type of stuff for "KJV only" people and or people who believe it is infallible(unless I think there are errors in the specific verses I am sharing)

Scriptural proof that God will save and reconcile ALL(not just SOME) beings to him.(The TRULY Good News)

Colossians 1:15-20(King James translation)
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

What does that last verse mean to you?
1 Corinthians 15:22(King James translation)
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.


If "all" means "some" rather than "all" then the translators should put "some" instead of "all" so let's see how that would work.

Colossians 1:15-20(INCORRECT TRANSLATION AND INTERPRETATION)
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were SOME things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: SOME things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before SOME things, and by him SOME things consist.
18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in SOME things he might have the preeminence.
19 For it pleased the Father that in him should SOME fulness dwell;
20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile SOME things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

1 Corinthians 15:22(INCORRECT TRANSLATION AND INTERPRETATION)
For as in Adam SOME die, even so in Christ shall SOME be made alive.


Comparing the incorrect translation with the King James translation which makes more sense? That ALL means ALL? Or that ALL means SOME?
When scripture is correctly translated there are no contradictions."

[DanielB]

Those verses are excellent for proving ALL MEANS ALL! I think they may have even been written that way so people could know it means all and not some.

I like it.

May steel is some day.

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.

Well feel free to share them(if you want to). I think I have been causing some people to at least think on the matter if I have not convinced anyone yet(fortunately my family and friends are not the type to hold my beliefs against me or shun me or anything like that).
