Things that differ

Nearly every Christian has been taught, and hence nearly every Christian believes, that there is only one Gospel, as well as that Paul taught exactly the same things Jesus and His disciples taught while He walked the earth. In fact, this is such a commonly accepted presupposition among Christians that many are surprised when they… Continue reading Things that differ

What is death?

What is death? The answer to this question is simple: death is the absence of life. In fact, this is such a simple concept that a child could tell you this. At the end of the day, it takes religion or the occult (is there a difference?) to truly get someone to believe that death… Continue reading What is death?

“…all men, especially…”

There are lots of other passages I can use as well, and I have in other places on this website, but I can show you, using two simple verses of Scripture, that God will save all humanity.

“There’s only one way to heaven,” the street preacher proclaimed adamantly. “If you don’t accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, you can’t be saved! Repent and believe the Gospel before it’s too late, or else you’ll end up in hell for all eternity!” ”Are you absolutely certain about that?” I asked. “If I… Continue reading There’s only one way we can be saved, right?

Why I am a heretical Universalist

Before I explain why I’m now a heretical Universalist, It’s important to know that I grew up as a conservative, evangelical, “born-again” Christian, and that I believed quite strongly in all of the traditional, “orthodox” ideas that nearly every evangelical Christian out there assumes is taught in Scripture. This means that I believed in the… Continue reading Why I am a heretical Universalist
