Hi all. I was recently in a debate on another forum which I would like to maybe start up here. I myself believe in the universal reconciliation of all things. My debate was over Romans 8:19-23.
Rom 8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
Rom 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
Rom 8:21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
Rom 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
Rom 8:23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
I would just like to start a fire here and here from you why you would believe this passage is or is not stating clearly "universal redemption for all creation.
I impatiently wait your responces.
God Bless, Dave
Universal reconciliation.
