Thanks! Actually, this is the 3rd time I've had to sign up  :grin:, the 2nd time the site had been infiltrated or something.

I first started studying the Universalism described in the Bible probably about 16 years ago. I had always had such a deep conviction of God's love for every one of His creatures and that It was far more inclusive than conventional/traditional Christianity allowed, in fact that's why I never became rooted in any of the conventional systems naming themselves Christian, Catholic, Pentecostal, Evangelical etc., they had lots of excited people whose enthusiasm appeared to carry some sort of message that was worth investigating, yet I found too many words and too many people telling me how God is but always falling well short of the picture painted in my heart. In my opinion, humans can use words all they like about God and put them in any order they want, but humans truly don't understand or know but a fraction of the love of God in Reality!

I felt there was no need for exclusion but everyone was trying to exclude someone, somewhere, somehow, and I always knew God was much bigger than that, much wiser, much more loving. My measure has always been that if it doesn't come up to highest standard of love then the mind of man has messed with it.

I have become accustomed to letting others get on with it realising that people who hold deep convictions that cause separation through exclusivity don't really want to spend too much time listening to your convictions; they just want an opportunity to make you think like them. In my opinion, they are where they are and it may be the case that for now that place is better than where they would be if they didn't have what they have now, and are just not able yet to accept a larger hope.

I have a larger hope where every creature of God will at some stage share in His Kingdom in ways undreamt of by the world's greatest dreamer; I believe He has ordained such for His children since before the Aeon of aeons of time existed for that specific Purpose  :Sparkletooth:

PS. I forgot to add that only by seeking and finding the God in Christ did I discover the way to put me on a firm and properly guided path towards the Divine Love I always knew existed!
