Christian Universalism seems to make people mad

Wow. You are seriously batting like a .001, Nightlion.

Your say so without correcting me means a lot......

Apparently it means you didn't read Boilermaker's other thread where the reality of hell was discussed.

Also, I can't correct what you are just making up (i.e. the accusation that I'm affiliated with a group or individual who is leading me), I can only refute it. And I do.

I will take your word for that. Just a funny incidental, I suppose, that three or four like minded folks hit these pages at the same time.

For my part, it is absolute coincidence. I don't think I've ever spoken to boilermaker until he started his thread about children in hell. The topic being one which interests me, as I'm sure you can clearly tell, I jumped right into the discussion.

I'm not sure who else you are referring to.

If you can view the MDDB, you can easily verify through my old posts and comments that this has been a topic of study for me for some time, certainly as long as I've been posting on that board.

Revelation 3:15-16
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

15 I have known thy works, that neither cold art thou nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot.

16 So -- because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am about to vomit thee out of my mouth;

Fortunately, that scripture is very supportive of a good vindaloo and pad thai, however, put down that Chick-Fil-A Brother. Amen.

A week before you and Boilermaker spoke up a poster called jo1952 was talking like this. Could have been a PM.

I think he/she posted on MDDB for a while, too, but we didn't interact. Interestingly, there was a poster on another LDS site named Bob whose wife was named Jo. He and I shared a lot of quotes and scriptures along these lines. Now I'm wondering if jo is Bob.

If so, he's as TBM as they come - and a really great guy. I haven't talked to him in ages, though.

She told me her name on a PM. It's not Jo. She never got back on my Spiritual Abuse thread. You ought to read the last bit of it if you never did.

Hello Mercyngrace!!

I am jo1952 (female) - the one who did from time to time respond to posts with you on MDDB. I even pm'd you once or twice. I was banned from there quite a while ago. But I certainly remember you! And I certainly recognize you! You walk a spiritual walk, as do I. This is something which NightLion does not yet understand.

I do not believe in coincidence. I believe God is behind sending us the influences of where we need to be, when we need to be there; even on these boards.

I didn't know that you participated on this board - so I am very excited to find you here! Another like-minded poster! If you are so inclined, I would like to invite you to participate in some of the threads that have been started on the Celestial Forum by myself, by Franktalk, and by Sheryl. Perhaps we can edify one another rather than spending time trying to explain ourselves to those who would rather rend us.

My beliefs about Universalism have always been in my mind and my heart, even when, as a child, I didn't even know there was a term for what I already believed to be True. What I had not realized until fairly recently is that for Universalism to be "True" Universalism would mean that even Lucifer and the third of the host of Heaven who followed him, would also need to eventually become One again with Father and with Christ and the rest of us. I have discussed some of these thoughts on those other threads. My spirit continues to have more and more parts of Truth revealed to it by the Spirit. So my understanding about the Kingdom of God continues to evolve in marvelous ways.

I think one of the blessings surrounding Genealogy work is beyond the joy experienced in getting Temple Ordinances done, and the finding of our kin. That is, all spirits assigned to this current earth also need to be One with Father and Christ in order for the Oneness which existed before to be able to become One again. Otherwise, that Oneness will be incomplete (if you will). This also is a part of Universalism.

Every time I think my cup overflows because of something revealed to me, I am surprised once more by the next revelation which exceeds the joy of the previous one. What a beautiful journey we are on - and how indescribable. I yearn to share with others what has been revealed to me, and have others share with me what has been revealed to them.

May Father's blessings continue to flow down upon you as your journey toward All Truth progresses.

Love,

jo

Hi jo ~

I'm sorry I didn't recall interacting with you on the other board. After Nightlion mentioned you, I went back through my content and saw where we did converse on a couple of threads. I hope our exchanges were all pleasant :)
