UNIVERSALISM BEING TAUGHT IN THE CHURCH

UNIVERSALISM IS THE BELIEF THAT EVERYONE("ALL"), WILL GO TO HEAVEN AND THAT NO ONE WILL END UP IN HELL. UNIVERSALISM CLAIMS THAT GOD'S GRACE WILL SAVE EVERYONE("ALL"). UNIVERSALISM IS CALLED THE DOCTRINE OF UNIVERSAL SALVATION.




 
ROB BELL-A UNIVERSALIST THAT PASTORS A CHURCH CALLED MARS HILL BIBLE CHURCH IN GRAND RAPIDS MICHIGAN. THE CHURCH HAS CHRIST-CENTERED EDUCATION FOR ALL. THIS SIMPLY MEANS THAT JESUS CHRIST IS MENTIONED AND THEY BELIEVE SOME OF HIS TEACHINGS AND THE BIBLE BUT NOT ALL THAT JESUS TAUGHT OR ALL THAT'S WRITTEN IN THE WORD.

IN HIS BOOK ENTITLED "LOVE WINS," BELL TALKS ABOUT HEAVEN AND HELL. YES! THERE IS A HEAVEN AND HELL...IT CLEARLY STATES THIS IN THE HOLY BIBLE!

ISAIAH 5:14-THEREFORE HELL HATH ENLARGED HERSELF AND OPENED HER MOUTH WITHOUT MEASURE AND THEIR GLORY AND THEIR MULTITUDE AND THEIR POMP AND HE THAT REJOICETH  SHALL DESCEND INTO IT

THERE ARE SO MANY SCRIPTURES IN THE BIBLE ABOUT HELL AND THE DESCRIPTION OF HELL, AND WHAT EVEN HAPPENS IN HELL. IT IS A PLACE OF TORMENT BUT THE TOMENTOR IS SATAN.






SOME OF HIS TEACHINGS CONSIST OF THE COMPLEX RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SUFFERING AND CREATIVITY AND THAT EVERYTHING IS SPIRITUAL, AND THAT THE GOD'S AREN'T ANGRY...WHAT GOD'S? THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUE AND LIVING GOD! THESE TEACHINGS ARE UNIVERSALIST VIEWS WITH SOME BUDDHISM AND EVEN OCCULT LIKE PRACTICES.


DURING A VIDEO BELL ASKS WOULD A LOVING GOD SEND PEOPLE TO ETERNAL TORMENT FOREVER? LET ME CLEAR THIS LIE UP RIGHT NOW! FATHER GOD DOES NOT SEND A PERSON TO HELL THEY SEND THEMSELVES BECAUSE OF THE CHOICES THAT THEY MAKE. FATHER GOD WARNS PEOPLE IN HIS WORD THAT THE WAGES OF SIN(THE PRICE THAT YOU WILL PAY FOR SINNING) IS DEATH. THERE IS A CHOICE THAT EVERY PERSON MUST MAKE EITHER HEAVEN OR HELL AND THERE IS NO IN BETWEEN PLACE. JESUS DID NOT RESCUE US FROM GOD. HE RESCUED US FROM THE PENALTY OF SIN BUT IF A PERSON CONTINUES TO SIN, THEN THEY MAKE WHAT JESUS DID FOR THEM NULL AND VOID. WHY? BECAUSE FATHER GOD HAS SAID FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH.  BELL ALSO CLAIMS THAT ETERNAL LIFE DOESN'T START WHEN YOU DIE. IT STARTS RIGHT NOW AND ULTIMATELY LOVE WINS. THIS IS TOTALLY CONTRADICTORY TO THE WORD OF GOD. IF ETERNAL LIFE WAS NOW THEN WHY WOULD JESUS HAVE HAD TO DIE ON THE CROSS AND WHY WOULD WE NEED THE WORD OF GOD OR EVEN NEED GOD? ROB BELL EVEN CONTRADICTS HIMSELF BECAUSE HE STATES THAT "GOD IS NOW RECONCILING US TO EACH OTHER, OURSELVES AND CREATION. IF ETERNAL LIFE IS NOW THEN WHY WOULD RECONCILIATION BE NEEDED? BELL ALSO GOES ON TO SAY THAT DEATH DOES NOT CUT OFF THE ABILITY TO REPENT...WOW! HOW CAN YOU REPENT IF YOU HAVE DIED? THIS GOES AGAINST WHAT JESUS SAYS!

LUKE 13:3-I TELL YOU, NAY: BUT EXCEPT YE REPENT YE SHALL ALL LIKEWISE PERISH





JESUS CAME SO THAT SALVATION COULD COME TO ALL BUT JUST HOW MANY WILL ACCEPT THE SALVATION THAT HAS BEEN OFFERED? WELL, ROB BELL SEEMS TO THINK THAT JESUS MAKES SALVATION POSSIBLE EVEN FOR PEOPLE WHO NEVER KNEW HIS NAME AND THAT "WE MUST ALLOW FOR MYSTERY" FOR PEOPLE WHO DRINK FROM THE ROCK OF FAITH WITHOUT KNOWING WHO OR WHAT IT WAS AND CHURCHES THAT DON'T ALLOW FOR THIS ARE "MISGUIDED AND TOXIC." REALLY!!! WHAT BELL IS SAYING IS THAT EVEN THOSE THAT WILL CLAIM TO NOT HAVE HEARD ABOUT JESUS WILL END UP IN HEAVEN AND THIS IS UNIVERSALISM. THE WORD OF GOD CLEARLY LETS US KNOW THAT EVERYONE ON THIS EARTH WILL HAVE KNOWN ABOUT JESUS AND HAVE HEARD THE GOSPEL.

MATTHEW 24:14-AND THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM SHALL BE PREACHED IN ALL THE WORLD FOR A WITNESS UNTO ALL NATIONS AND THEN SHALL THE END COME

MARK 16:15-AND HE SAID UNTO THEM GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOSPEL TO EVERY CREATURE

A WARNING TO ALL THAT ARE SAVED AND YOU BELIEVE THAT ALL ARE GOING TO HEAVEN AND THAT THERE IS NO HELL...MY SUGGESTION TO YOU IS TO REPENT AND ASK FATHER GOD TO OPEN THE EYES OF YOUR UNDERSTANDING CONCERNING HIS WORD...THEN READ THE WORD OF GOD FOR YOURSELF
