All things were created through and for Christ and for His glory. That God may be all in all.
Isa 43:7 Every one that is called by My name, and whom I have created for My glory, I have formed him, yea, I have made him.'
Col 1:16 for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers, all things have been created through him, and unto him,
1Co 15:28 And when all things have been subjected unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subjected to him that did subject all things unto him, that God may be all in all.
I'm not sure why this would discredit universalism.
But go ahead, tell us.
Perhaps our new member Dave1689 thinks God will only be God of some?
Perhaps Dave thinks all things have been created by Him, but alas not for Him?
From Him ta panta comes, through Him ta panta exists, in Him ta panta ends!
Every one of us, the good, the bad and the ugly face the FIRE of our Glorious God!
Our Father, Abba, is the final destination for the entire creation (clearly defined as the Source, Guide & Goal of the all/ ta panta).

Titus 2
11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Isaiah 26:9 for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness
God's grace and God's judgments do the same thing: they teach us to be righteous. This is how the sin is taken away. This is how all will be made righteous (Romans 5)!
"If you declare with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
"No one can say Jesus is Lord, but by the Holy Spirit"
"Every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord"
I leave it as an exercise for the reader to find these verses in the scripture

That is how remission from the "disease" of "sin" will occur IN US! God never had and does not now have ANY need to change His love for us all!!

My brother: The truth of our heavenly ABBA must be born into us. That song of all songs cannot, repeat cannot, be taught. No one can learn that song but the followers of the Lamb.
I just awakened to a song this afternoon. God bless His House, the mystery of the fellowship!
