General Discussion / Heaven's Doors
« Last post by David on October 10, 2019, 06:51:13 PM »

“George W. Sarris is a popular author, speaker and performer who has spent a lifetime
addressing Biblical and family issues throughout the U.S. A 1978 graduate of
Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, he’s served on the staffs of three
missionary organizations and has published numerous blog articles on
ultimate restoration on ChristianPost.com – the world’s largest
online Christian news website. He’s been a featured speaker
at conferences, churches, men’s retreats and conventions
across the country. . . Heaven’s Doors was awarded
the Silver Medal in Theology in the 2018
Illumination Awards for Exemplary
Christian Books.

The idea of hell as a place of never-ending suffering is not taught in the Bible.
It’s a myth that was forced on the Christian Church by a power-hungry
Roman emperor, was supported by a highly respected but
misinformed cleric, and has endured for centuries
because it became the status quo.

Heaven’s Doors exposes that myth. It explains both historically and Biblically
how Jesus Christ succeeded in His mission to seek and save the lost.
And it shows how the doors to heaven really are wider
than you ever believed!” Amazon Excerpts

General Discussion / Chapter 23
« Last post by David on October 08, 2019, 01:01:12 PM »
God will have all men to be saved. This truth is a supernatural mystery.
It can only be understood by a spiritual mind through the teaching
of the Holy Spirit. It is in itself so Divine and beyond our
apprehension - the difficulties that surround it are
so many and so real that it needs so much
time and sacrifice to master its teaching.
From God’s Will by Andrew Murray

Few Christian’s realize that the beloved Andrew Murray had written of his hope in
ultimate reconciliation. This chapter had been omitted by more recent publishers.
The Salvation of All (Chapter 23) in his book (God’s Will) Read (Chapter 23)

Evangelism / Truth Has Its Time
« Last post by David on October 08, 2019, 12:37:38 PM »
“In short, seeing the Spirit as the convincer of people, and I their friend has allowed me
to be more relaxed in God’s process, not only in my heart, but with others around
me as well. It is far more fruitful to help people into the truth they are seeking,
rather than to badger them into what they are resisting. Believe me!” WJ*

General Discussion / Everyone Is In Process

“. . . We developed a mantra of sorts that says ‘everyone is in process’ and by that we
mean that not everyone is on the same page, or in the same place, theologically.
So, we have learned to have extreme grace for one another. . .” Keith Giles
“Everyone Is In Process - Have Extreme Grace For One Another”

General Discussion / Hallelujah in “Hell” (16 Minute Video)
« Last post by David on October 07, 2019, 06:11:57 PM »
Do you believe in Hell? No. Of course you don't. But then we have to ask,
which "Hell" are you referring to? There are three different realities in
Scripture that we refer to with our one English word, "Hell".
How confusing is that? Watch (Hallelujah in “Hell”).

Any Question / What is “Hellbound?” the movie about?
« Last post by David on October 06, 2019, 02:07:05 PM »

The movie is a 2012 Canadian documentary film which details the various views about the existence
and nature of hell. Does hell exist? If so, who ends up there, and why? For many people, belief in
hell as a place of eternal torment for the wicked is an indisputable tenet of Christian orthodoxy.
In their view, rejecting or modifying this belief is tantamount to rejecting Christianity, itself.
But a growing number of believers disagree. They argue that we can have a loving God or
we can have eternal hell, but we can’t have both. - Adapted Description Excerpt

This is the official theatrical trailer for the documentary "Hellbound?", which opened in theaters
September 21,2012. The film takes an in-depth look at the subject of hell and why those
who question the traditional doctrine are so often criticized by their fellow Christians.

Any Question / What is the outcome of God’s infinite grace?
« Last post by David on October 06, 2019, 11:59:48 AM »
~ The Outcome of Infinite Grace ~
Death Swallowed Up in Victory
By Dr. Loyal Hurley


It will be well at the outset of our study to get the Biblical basis of this subject clearly in mind,
and to recognize that all three destinies of the wicked are taught in the usual translations of
the Bible. One set of verses tells us that the wicked are to be tormented "for ever and ever;"
another set just as clearly affirms that they are to be exterminated; yet still a third set
assures us they will all ultimately be saved. Of course, the various conclusions which
men draw from these respective texts cannot all be right. Either there is some way
to understand them all, and to interpret them all correctly so they do not conflict
with one another, or else hopeless confusion will be inevitable.
