Greetings,
Just wanted to say hello to everyone.

I am not sure about universal reconciliation but I certainly am open minded and will gladly learn what I can.

WELCOME!

You know, I wasn't sure myself for a long time, but nowadays I write universalist essays.
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

I was not either at first  , it sounded to good  to be true ...
   And I found scriptures that seemed   counter that...It was my mindset  ,  thinking some how it was up to me to save myself , It is ALL HIM  , you can bank on that..

  But after reading so many , many  places it is the LORD JESUS  CHRIST     that  does it all  by  Him in Him and Though   Him IN  the power of the Father
I was convinced   ,  He  was a  much  more  Glorious   GOD  , than the one my  poor little carnal mind had created  and heard about by many  others all  our youth  and young age 
It is not until it becomes  so   close , personal ,  and  intimate,,, to me anyways ... not that group    thing ..
When  I knew God was LOVING   ,  and not that distant    far away angry  God   that   I personally seemed  to fail  all the tests ..

  I don't think you can begin to love your enemies till the LOVE OF GOD dwells within you ..  It is all Him , and to  HIM  be the Glory ... :HeartThrob:
Jesus is the reward  !!
