A universalist believes that Christ died for
all to make all saveable, and therefore logically and consistently believes
these things:
1. That the gospel call applies to everyone in the audience,
2. That faith is the duty of every sinner,
3. That the gospel "offers" Christ
and salvation to all. without distinction,
4. That the gospel offer of divine mercy is
free and universal,
5. That the saving grace in Jesus Christ is
common to all, and
6. That God has the same saving love for the

I have read about universalists that they don't
interpret scripture very well. In this short passage, Paul writes to the Elect;
it clarifies many misinterpretations:
“And you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins, wherein in times past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience. Among these also we all had our manner of living in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love wherewith He loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ (by grace ye are saved), and hath raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God-not by works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath beforehand ordained, that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:1-10

Universalism, Intellectualism, and Relativism,
all three are conjoined triplets in the same buggy being towed by a hellbent stubborn
mule. The results being humanitarian and social ignorance attempting to produce
social order and prosperity with a magic wand.
wonder what you all would have to say if
you weren't being critical of someone. It would be nice to hear some
encouraging words of exhortation. Help me to increase my knowledge of the Lord
Jesus Christ.

I am PRO-truth, and because I am pro-truth, I
am critical of opinions that do not match the truth, as I understand it, of
course.
4:1 ¶ I charge thee therefore before God, and
the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing
and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out
of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
Reprove and rebuke... exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine!
How can one fulfill the charge of reprove and
rebuke without being critical of errors?
Knowing the errors helps the believers to discern the truth better! It is woolly-headed who can't distinguish errors from truth!

Brother William, No personal attack or individual offense intended on my part.
However having experienced first handed the
destructive power of these things, "Universalism, Intellectualism, and
Relativism."
I feel obliged to speak out against them, else I'm guilty of what would be called leaving a pitfall covering to a bottomless pit called indifference.
Skeptics, I love'm, reason, once they know
the truth, you and ten wild horses couldn't separate them from the truth.
There is a higher love than what the world
claims as to their standard, you know the one that says, "I love as long as
it is convenient."
I don't claim to be a prophet, priest, or
soothsayer, I've experienced teachers and ear-tweakers, I prefer the teacher.
I do agree with you, the Gospel is God's love letter to His bride, the Church, no otherwise idle time could be spent better among them than sharing the gospel, peacefully. 😉
