It should be obvious, God will save all

I showed these verses to a pair of Jehovah's witnesses at my door one morning. They stated, "That's interesting"...and then headed for the next house on the block.  ;D

I was placed on the JW's "Do Not Disturb" list.  ;D

I had Mormons come to my house. I had a Spitz mix Samoyed Dog. I had the guard on my door and she come flying out with her hair all raised and they said, "Oh, my a Wolf." Never ever saw them again. LOL

Hi Legoman

You gotta think about like this, God can hide anything from anyone and it can be right in their face--look how blind we all were once before---look how Jesus blinded the eyes of those He appeared to after His resurrection--They just spent 3 and half years with Him and they didnt even recognize him. 

Theres so much in the Word that should be so obvious but we dont know all of what God is going to reveal either.

That is so true Anthony....we have all been blind at one stage, I sometimes am amazed at it, "how is it possible not to have seen this before?", but then again, it was not meant for me to see it then.  Yet....try and show it to someone and they can't see the obvious.  What a double-edged sword we have.

After, reading Ray this verse you are right says so much more. I belive the reward is the elect. The just being saved is the rest of humantiy. That is a perfect scripture for all will be saved.

Thanks for pointing that out Kevin, I was not thinking of it quite like that. I had a little of my rose colored glasses affecting me too.

In His Love,

Hi Marlene,

Yes it is amazing reading the bible now with the rose colored glasses removed.  Scriptures that didn't make sense or seemed contradictory now show how loving God really is.  Things will start to pop out at you.

Regarding it being "obvious".  Yes it should be obvious to all, but it is not.  I mean I was still reading some verses the "old" way, and I've known the truth for almost a year.  How can we expect people who have been indoctrinated their whole life to see the truths?

God was very clever when he set this up, it makes me laugh sometimes.  When I realize something "obvious" for the first time, sometimes I will literally say out loud "WOW, that was a good one Lord, you really got me that time!"  Kind of like when someone gives you a puzzle or a magic trick, and you can't figure it out until they show you how it works.  We have to wait for God to show us how it all works, one little piece at a time.

Kevin
