Cheer up Jesus loves you!
He just needs to accept Universalism if he really believes what he says he believes. It is hard for me to respond to him because he endlessly repeats himself instead of actually trying to deal with various things I spend meaningful time to tell him. He doesn't have to... doesn't matter in that regard. I just chose not to respond to him anymore. I appreciate the fact we are actually having a meaningful conversation.
Sorry nowhere is it stated the word of salvation goes out to those only
Acts 13:42–47 (KJV 1900) — 42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath. 43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God. 44 And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God. 45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming. 46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles. 47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.

Well it is the internet...So it's different strokes for different folks. It might be the reason there's been so many wars throughout history. One side wants to convince the other that they need to do things their way and that their customs and beliefs are correct and everybody needs to change. That makes it rather difficult to have any kind of meaningful conversation. I think it all boils down to respect.

Absolutely. At the "end of the day".... I firmly believe in a person being free to make their own decisions. Good or Bad. That is God's way. Believing in freedom allows others to do what they want to do. That is something we've lost in this country in the last 3 or 4 generations. The belief that every person has direct access to God to live by their concenscience.
This belief requires that we allow the right for others to be different than us. Which is what took place when God drove Cain away from Adam and Eve but refused to let their descendents judge him for murder. There is a balance to be had between all of us. When either side seeks to completely control the other, it always ends in disaster and judgement.

The word of Salvation is sent only to Abes Spiritual Seed, then Faith cometh by hearing, they hear because they are Spiritual

Wow
Let me scratch my head in bewilderment or wonder if your unbiblical statement can really mean what it seems to mean.It sounds a lot like the declaration of principles found in spiritualism.

The word of Salvation is sent only to Abes Spiritual Seed, then Faith cometh by hearing, they hear because they are Spiritual. Read Acts 13:26
26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
Notice that Paul qualifies the whosoever, to them among you that feareth God, whether jew or non jew, Anyone regenerated is a Spiritual Seed of Abraham regardless of ethnicity.

Oh... you to funny Joe
Guess what... as soon as you pick up that first drink it'll be like you never quit, you go right back to where you left off. Once an alcoholic always an alcoholic.That's not my opinion it's a proving fact. So you're actually still in bondage, you're not free. If you were free you could have an occasional beer. But if you're an alcoholic that first beer starts the whole process all over. Stop kidding yourself.
Did you know that many people use angel leaven to brew whiskey, because the Angel leaven can make the whole fermentation process goes easily. That's the leaven You need to watch out for. Calvinists Not so much.
and your a IDIOT know what i mean vern

Sure you do. I would imagine it's what you do best. Should we look back through the posts and see who started this? Sure why not.
Looks you You were the first to cross the line in post number 70 on this thread and continued all the way through it. And as soon as somebody gives you a taste of your own medicine you start whining like a baby. Apparently you're one of those guys that can dish it out but can't take it.
Ignoring scripture as usual
