The Final Say – Mercy versus Judgment

 

In short,

Verses speaking of Judgment are not the End. Judgment is not equal to Mercy either (meaning Judgment cannot be eternal) because it’s implied that Mercy is greater even triumphing over judgment (especially in the most severe context of ‘merciless judgment’ upon the one who showed ‘no mercy’):

“For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment.” (James 2:13)

Thus, the verses regarding “His Mercy” have the ‘Final Say’ and plenty of these prove Universal Salvation through Christ Alone till “God becomes all in all”:

“For God has shut up all in disobedience so that He may show mercy to all.” (Romans 11:32)

“When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that God may be all in all.” (1 Corinthians 15:28)

Conclusion verses speak of the end and are not to be confused with intermediate judgment verses which speak to the “age or ages” accordingly.

An example of a Conclusion Verse for Men which certainly speaks of ‘even those breaking His Commandments & teaching others likewise too’ will be saved by Him to be ‘in the kingdom of the Heavens’ (The “Faith of Jesus Christ” does NOT Fail And He Will do it):

“Whoever therefore breaks one of these least commandments and teaches others to break them, will be called the least in the Kingdom of the Heavens; but whoever practises them and teaches them, he will be acknowledged as great in the Kingdom of the Heavens.” (Matthew 5:19)

*The inaccurate translations of “age or ages” (and their equivalents to ‘everlasting’ or ‘forever’) do not hold because The Original Greek Word in Scripture is simply not that

These same words are used to describe Him living to the “ages” or being same to the “ages” even glory toward Him to the “ages” to ‘highlight’ (not limit) His fulfilling of these Purposes to Save the World according to His Holy Will.

Just like mentioning Him as the God of Israel ‘highlights’ this and does ‘not’ limit Him to the title used as Scripture uses this style of language to Emphasize on a Focus or Purpose (be it in a ‘chosen elect people’ or toward a ‘specific time period’) to fulfill All His Will accordingly (God’s Sovereignty):

“Or is God the God of Jews only? Is He not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,” (Romans 3:29)

“Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.” (Psalm 85:10)

Indeed,

“We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.” (1 John 4:14)
