The reason I’m not Roman Catholic is really quite simple (although if you want the proof of my reason, it will require some homework on your part): There’s just no way to reconcile Roman Catholic doctrine with Scripture. (The same goes for Eastern Orthodox doctrine, but I’m just going to refer to Roman Catholicism throughout… Continue reading Why I’m not Roman Catholic (or Eastern Orthodox)

Why I believe in the salvation of all humanity
The reason I believe in the eventual salvation of all humanity is really quite simple. Many years ago, while I myself was still a believer in the popular doctrine of never-ending punishment for unbelievers, I encountered debates between other Christians who also believed the popular doctrine arguing with a seemingly strange group of people who… Continue reading Why I believe in the salvation of all humanity
You’re not ready to reject Universalism yet
As I wrote last week, many Infernalists (and, I should add, even some Annihilationists) will quote Bible verses assuming that they disprove Universalism, and presumably also somehow assuming that we’ve never heard those passages before (or at least assuming we don’t believe those passages are true). Anyone who does that without already knowing how it… Continue reading You’re not ready to reject Universalism yet
That passage of Scripture you referred to doesn’t disprove Universalism the way you assume it does
Whenever the topic of Universal Reconciliation comes up, some Infernalist (meaning a believer in the doctrine of never-ending torment) inevitably says something like, “This particular passage of Scripture proves that Universalism can’t be true,” and then refers to a passage they assume proves their soteriology. What they forget is that a text read out of… Continue reading That passage of Scripture you referred to doesn’t disprove Universalism the way you assume it does
Nobody fears truth quite like a Christian does
For a few years now I’ve been asking Christians to read a book I wrote which explains why I believe the Bible teaches what I believe it does about heaven, hell, judgement, death, evil, sin, and salvation, among other things (which you can find here), and for the same number of years it’s been the… Continue reading Nobody fears truth quite like a Christian does
Questions you must answer
In order to convince us Mid-Acts Dispensationalists we’re wrong about our belief that there is more than one Gospel proclaimed in Scripture, one has to be able to first answer some questions. If one can’t answer these questions, they won’t be able to convince us that we’re wrong (it’s as simple as that). First, would… Continue reading Questions you must answer
Why I can’t take most Christians seriously, and a challenge for those who disagree with me
If someone sent you a link to this article, there’s a good chance it’s because you’re the type of person being discussed in it (although not always), so please read the whole thing carefully to learn how to make sure you aren’t included in this group. When a Christian discovers that my current interpretations of… Continue reading Why I can’t take most Christians seriously, and a challenge for those who disagree with me
Save yourself!
Did Jesus Christ save you, or did you save yourself? Most Christians will claim to believe that Jesus saved them, but when you look at the facts it becomes apparent that they actually believe God only helps those who help themselves, and that they believe they are, in fact, their own (at least partial) saviours,… Continue reading Save yourself!
What if you’re wrong?
Believers in Universal Reconciliation are often asked, “What if you’re wrong?” Well, if we are, all that’s happened is we’ve accused God of being more successful and more loving than He really is, but we’ve also still believed the Good News that Christ died for our sins, and that He was entombed and was roused… Continue reading What if you’re wrong?
Christianity is more negative than Atheism
A fellow member of the body of Christ by the name of Alan posted this over on the Concordant Believers Discord, and gave me permission to share it. I’ve edited it slightly for punctuation and spelling and such, but otherwise I’ve posted it as it was shared: “Christians like to shit on atheists for saying… Continue reading Christianity is more negative than Atheism
