1 Timothy 2:4

<< < (3/3)

Hi Folks,

Let's read these 2 witnesses;

Isa 46:10  Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:

2656 Isa 55:11  So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Keeping the above in mind let's read 1Timothy 2:4 again;

1Ti 2:4  Who will have all men to be saved and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

Great contributions all!

Peace,

Joe

Have a listen to Ray's February 2008 Bible study, Foundational truths.

That's today's homework assignment for me, David. 

Why, oh why are there so many Davids in this forum? 

"What do you think, David?"

"I don't know...let's ask Dave."

"Which Dave?"

"I meant David."

"Oh THAT one.  I asked him already and he said, 'Hey, don't ask me, David!"

"Well, I guess there are other Dave's that might have the answer."

"Ordinarily, I wouldn't say this, but the odds are stacked heavily in favor of SOME Dave or David knowing why there are so many of us here."

"Yep.  Evolution is flimsier science that one, David."

Just another David.

Hahahaha, seems like we have a very popular name.
I read an article on this many years ago, about popular Biblical names. Seems the one most chosen by parents next to John, Paul and Peter is David.......but then surely there should be more Johns, Paul's and Peters?
Well I don't believe in coincidences, somethings going on  ;D

David:

--- Quote from: Paul on July 20, 2008, 11:10:06 PM ---And I'd like to point out that 1 Timothy 4:10 is much more concrete proof that all will be saved:

For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe. (NKJV)

A wonderfull scripture Paul.
I like some of the scriptures that don't come flat out and say all will be saved, but absolutely mean all will be saved. One of my favourites, Matthew 5:4  Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
So many people either read over the word "Shall" in this verse, or diminish this profound prophesy and commandment as though it should read "well, it would be nice of everyone who mourned were comforted, but its unlikely".
When Jesus Christ says "Shall" , we can take that to the bank, its going to happen regardless of what Christians would like to believe.

Yes, sir, David.  It's everywhere...It's EVERYWHERE!   :)

It takes an adult to NOT see it.

David,

I agree that it is so thrilling to have eyes to see the salvation of all throughout the bible and not just in a few direct verses.  It is interesting to list all verses that say it flat out or that says it flat out in a round-a-bout way.

One I have always loved that is not brought out very often is Luke 3:6

"And all flesh shall see the salvation of God."

But there are many more peppered throughout the OT and the NT.

It is true.  It is true.  Jesus Christ is the Saviour of the whole world, so rejoice and be exceedingly glad.
