Hi all.  I believe that a strong scriptural and logical case can be made for Universal Salvation, albeit one that is by no means bullet-proof.  The being said, I am here to challenge and stimulate our thinking.  I look forward to chatting with y'all.

Welcome!!  I find something C.S. Lewis said to be an apt description of my views.....God did not create man for man to love Him (though he wants that too) but rather that God may love man.  Paraphrased, of course, but it gets the point across.

Your name gives you away :wink:.  Really, as a newcomer to UR in the past year, I admit I desperately want to believe it, see plenty of scripture that supports it, but also grew up in extremely conservative ET believing surroundings, so I understand what you're saying. "Test all things and hold fast to that which is good" 1 Thessalonians 5:21.  Welcome, God's blessing, James.

Hi apoc, welcome!

Yep i think the case from scripture is very strong. There are a few passages that seem to point the other way. We can make a very strong case with logic, but lets pray the Holy Spirit helps show more folk the truth of God's message:

John 16:12
But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth.

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone.
