DHK,
universal reconciliation only states that THEY dont believe in an eternal punishment but a temporary punishment in "hell". and eventually returning to God in heaven.
I dont. my understanding is far more than that.
I stand with a belief that there is NO "hell" of punishment after death.
although there is a removal of all memories from the human race that doesnt glorify God.
maybe you can call that "hell".
but the body of Christ is chosen by God himself and we then choose within that Group if we will surrender to the will of God and become a living sacrifices before God. That insures that the human race will be remembered through Gods standards.
and life goes on through the ages with men representing the sons of God and a memorial to the Gods grace and love towards mankind as seen through the memorial through the overcomers lives.
no one elses life will be remembered as it did not glorify God. one has to be able to "store their treasures in heaven" retaining their life as a living testament for all men to witness.
those are only the people who would have the keys...those who accept jesus christ as their lord and savior. the young men. only their lives who are "hidden in christ"
thats the reason Jesus came to Earth in the MIDDLE of Gods Salvic Plan of man. not the beginning or the end but to give men the spirit and instructions on how to live within its perameters.
interesting that God does choose who will be called. We as individuals further the choice by choosing to surrender (or do we?).
although we have no way to determine who gets called or who is chosen. we are Gods creation
and do not have a stake other than to choose for ourselves what will happen towards us.
I look at this as, if there is anything in the world that is dishonouring before God, that an individual will instantly choose to be rid of it from their memory. when all men and women of Gods creation learns this. they will choose to no longer retain those thoughts and memories.
they only thing left in mankinds future is the occurances of man as he existed within God himself.
Thats why God allows mankind to receive his spirit before their own time of physical death.
as a memorial..
do you have treasures in heaven ?
