I don’t like the teaching of “original sin” ... why lay at the feet of a newborn baby all the sin that has come before. How could God create that which is impure though it has done nothing? Let the children stand before we claim they have fallen.
I don’t like the teaching of “only this life” ... we do not lock the doors on people who had the misfortune of living in a culture that is devoid of the gospel. So, let it be known that all those resurrected into judgment will give answer to their willingness with the revelation of Christ and His gospel standing before them… and many will come to Him during that day who during this life never wanted to or never knew.
I don’t like the teaching of everlasting torment. No parent gets tired of talking to their children so they just torment them instead. We throw folk like that in prison. What a poor witness to warp scripture in such a way that makes it seem as if torture is God’s hobby. Annihilation is everlasting punishment, but it is not everlasting torture.
I don’t like the teaching of universalism either. Not only do you need to cut whole sections of the Bible out, but most universalists do bold mental calisthenics to make words like “destroy” to mean “preserve and refine.”
The fact of the matter is that all will stand before the Lord and see Him as He is… and hearts will be revealed. Nobody that wants to belong to the Lord with humility and willingness will ever be denied. Ignorance, rebellion, youth, mental handicaps, etc. ... none of that stuff will cause the process or the revelation of hearts to be obscured.
Rather, grace is the gift of God given to all those who come to Him in faith who believe in the name Jesus Christ and accept His sacrifice into them as the payment for forgiveness of sin. ~ God [Letters from God and His Christ - Volume 2 - I Am the Lord God Almighty!...The Only God!
