Try studying up on the topics of silver and gold in the bible. Silver is the color of redemption yet Paul chose to run for the gold.

So there's going to be Heaven, and then like a backroom VIP Heaven for those that chose to run for the gold?

Who am I to say?

Nobody listens to me anyway. I'm only a Christian and Christians only claim the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit, don't they?

But I'm nobody really.

Shouldn't you be thinking about how to acquire your own power? Of course, there could be limiting conditions on power or maybe there should be in our current human condition.

Hasn't this world already botched up the power thing by not consulting God on serious matters?

I was only asking because your interpretation doesn't coincide with what I've read about universalism. From what I've seen everyone eventually ends up on the same "level" in heaven, no matter what life they've led.

Under universalism the above is a false choice. I can be wrong and get an eternal life. In fact i cant not get one.

If you want me to believe you are a universalist and not just using it as a tool of manipulation you will have to stop making posts like i quoted.

I really wasn't posting towards you.

I was making a point about gold and silver so I chose to use one of your old posts.

I couldn't manipulate your mind if I wanted to. You've already posted many times in the past on how you've surrendered yourself willingly to sin so I'm assuming you've surrendered your mind to being a slave to sin also since your mind is attached to your body.

I have additional info but I think I'll save it for believers.

If you've failed religious basics it's too advanced for you.

My bad for mentioning it.
