A hearty AMEN!
Phi 3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

To see Him as He is, What an awesome site that will be. Our puny little minds can not even begin to know.

Robin:
Thank you Kat.
David:
Thanks Kat, great post. In Rev 21:11, the analogy "clear as glass" is used. Glass can only be made by applying intense heat to sand or "dust". ;)

:D Great post, Kat! :D
I have a confession to make about the first verse quoted in your post....
I made a really dumb mistake the other night--some friends came over to discuss the Bible, one is on the fence about salvation for all, and the other person is very much "a church goer" but wanting to talk about what we've been learning....
I am a student and not ready for any of this....but I was put on the spot by my hubby, who is all excited now that he sees that there is no literal hell...he jumped right in and then asked me for the verses??? Anyway...I think I did an ok job in presenting what I believe, because I know what I believe....but in a heated moment of "discussion" I flipped out the verse that you just quoted at the top: I Cor. 3:11-15 as a "salvation for ALL" scripture....I knew that when I did, I'd made a mistake....I could feel the heat in the spirit!! If you look closely, the "every man's work" mentioned there are from the select group that are building on the firm "foundation of Christ," i.e. believers to begin with! If anyone has other thoughts on this: please! have at it!! I am sooo embarrassed! :-\
