Grace For All


And all mankind shall see (behold and understand and at last acknowledge) the salvation of God (the deliverance from eternal death decreed by God). Luke 3:6

Well then, as one man's trespass [one man's false step and falling away led] to condemnation for all men, so one Man's act of righteousness [leads] to acquittal and right standing with God and life for all men. Romans 5:18

For God has consigned (penned up) all men to disobedience, only that He may have mercy on them all [alike]. Romans 11:32

For the grace of God (His unmerited favor and blessing) has come forward (appeared) for the deliverance from sin and the eternal salvation for all mankind. It has trained us to reject and renounce all ungodliness (irreligion) and worldly (passionate) desires, to live discreet (temperate, self-controlled), upright, devout (spiritually whole) lives in this present world, Awaiting and looking for the [fulfillment, the realization of our] blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One), Who gave Himself on our behalf that He might redeem us (purchase our freedom) from all iniquity and purify for Himself a people [to be peculiarly His own, people who are] eager and enthusiastic about [living a life that is good and filled with] beneficial deeds. Titus 2:11-14

Who wishes all men to be saved and [increasingly] to perceive and recognize and discern and know precisely and correctly the [divine] Truth. 1 Timothy 2:4 

For it is written, As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God [acknowledge Him to His honor and to His praise]. Romans 14:11

We are plainly told by our Father that all of mankind will understand and acknowledge salvation. We are told that Jesus has given life and eternal salvation to all mankind. We are told that our Father will have mercy on all men. We are told that our Father has now given us grace, so that all of mankind can be saved from sin and enjoy eternal salvation. We are told that our Father wishes for all men to be saved and we are told that every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord. 

People, Jesus was and is very successful. He was far more successful at providing Grace then Adam was at causing damnation. Just read what our Father had written and enjoy the freedom that has been provided to us through Christ. We may not all be one with Jesus as His Bride, but we sure are all saved from the Lake of Fire. Some may have to lose their reward of being the Bride, but they will be saved, even as one who has passed through the fire, 1 Corinthians 3:15.
