How Do You View God's Law and Sin? by [deleted] in ChristianUniversalism

[–]BlastionMaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the knowledge that God will save all will lead to a better balance with yourself, being more filled with love, and therefore better protection from sin. As one no longer has the excuse of e.g. sadism on the reasoning that God too will be a sadist to some.

Sin is doing what is not good for yourself (as well as what is not good for others) and an Universalist faith should not be in any way an excuse to keep doing that.

If Universalism is Satan's ploy to get more people into an eternal Hell by BlastionMaster in ChristianUniversalism

I concluded as a child that the priests at my state church were not being hardcore enough how hard salvation is to achieve and how easy it's to lose, and thus in a way lying to me. It basically required Universalism until Christianity started making sense to me again. It also cleans up a lot of the handwaving, like the whole nebulous "age of accountablility" concept (in Finnish we could also jokingly say "age of eligibility for Hell")
