Agape Unfailing and Unending – True and Relentless LOVE of God – toward ALL MEN in Holy Scripture
Deep Meaning in Quote in Picture.
Our Resistance is LOVE even toward our enemies that they may be SAVED eventually too be it post afterlife judgment and NEVER hoping an eternal Hell for them, but rather that His Mercy which Triumphs and ends even be it (even if it’s) the eternal Hell Sentence itself eventually (James 2:13, 1 Timothy 2:4, 1 Timothy 4:10).
In light of this Total Victory in Lord Jesus Christ, we are exhorted to “give thanks” for the “Salvation” of “all men” too (Context: Consecutive Verses in 1 Timothy 2:1 and 1 Timothy 2:4 toward the end mentioned in 1 Timothy 4:10).
Example:
“For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; Mercy triumphs over Judgment.” – apostle James (James 2:13, NASB)
Where, an implied meaning for these quotes in Verse above may be as follows:
“For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy” = Eternal Hell Sentence or Maximum afterlife Judgment Sentence may have to be endured first as we reap what we sow if we die in our sins being unbelieving first, Galatians 6:7
“Mercy triumphs over Judgment” = God’s Mercy ENDS or CANCELS the “Eternal Hell Sentence or Maximum afterlife Judgment Sentence” mentioned in the first part of this Verse.
Undeserved, Unearned, Unmerited?
That’s what GOD’S MERCY is and it is Written in that CONTEXT irrefutably in Verse above.
Conclusion
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for ALL MEN; Who WILL HAVE ALL MEN to be SAVED, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” – apostle Paul (1 Timothy 2:1, 4, KJV)
Blessed be the Savior of the World!
P/S:
We are “commanded” to teach “these” things (e. g. ‘How God Saves ALL MEN but believers are more special’ as mentioned in 1 Timothy 4:10) and the next (consecutive) Verse, implies irrefutably in 1 Timothy 4:11.
“For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the Living God, who is the Saviour of ALL MEN, SPECIALLY of THOSE that BELIEVE. These things COMMAND and TEACH.” – apostle Paul (1 Timothy 4:1, 10, 11, KJV)
The only thing mentioned in Holy Scripture as UNENDING or UNFAILING is LOVE (Agape, the Love of God) and ‘not Hell’ (whose prophecy may ‘fail’ or be DONE AWAY too in light of THE PERFECT AGAPE of GOD) as the Beautiful Verses below imply Majestically in comparison (Are we able to see it as it is Written?):
“LOVE [Agape] never fails; but if there are gifts of PROPHECY , they will be DONE AWAY; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part; but when the PERFECT comes, the PARTIAL will be DONE AWAY.” – apostle Paul (1 Corinthians 13:8, 9, 10, NASB)
Truly,
“ALL THINGS have been handed over to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and anyone to whom the SON WILLS to REVEAL Him.” – Lord Jesus Christ (Luke 10:22, NASB)
A Good Translation of the Titus 2:11 Verse (in image below) where the Greek is given in comparison (in next image). Please note the phrase “all men” = ‘each and every human being ever created’ and “Grace = Mercy” in Verses quoted “as it is Written”.
Koine Greek of Titus 2:11 in an Interlinnear
HalleluYAH and Thanks be to God in Lord Jesus Christ!
Let us Never Forget HIS PERFECT AGAPE!:
Lord Jesus Christ is the KING of kings
“And on His Robe and on His Thigh He has a Name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” – apostle John (Revelation 19:16, NASB)
And so according to Proverbs 25:3, His Beautiful Heart is Truly the Unsearchable of the unsearchables!
