3 Therefore because the disobedience of one man led all men to condemnation; even so one man's act of righteousness exculpates (pronounces not guilty of offences) all men to right standing with God and righteousness of life. The Lord once told me "if one man's sin can curse the whole human race, then how much more just is it for one man's righteousness to pay for the sins of the whole world?" Sounds logical doesn't it? HE IS LOGICAL. And the scriptural proof of his statement to me is the footnoted verse Rom 5:18:
Because the disobedience of one man [Adam] led all men to condemnation; even so one man's [Christ's] act of righteousness
exculpates (pronounces not guilty of offences) all men to right standing with God and eternal life.
All will be reconciled to God: the few who are crucified, purified, and perfected while on earth with great reward; and the many who are purified in Hell. "And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, to reconcile by him [Jesus], all things to himself [the Father]; by him [Jesus], I say, whether they are things on earth, or things in heaven." Col 1:20. All men are eventually changed to be in right standing with God. All men are eventually saved: we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe. 1 Tim 4:10. (Mark! All men, not just all believers). Jesus made it possible so that all men will eventually be saved: For God has sealed them all [men] in disobedience, that he might show mercy on all [men]. Rom 11:32. But all men must pass through the fire before being set to right standing with God, either: 1) the first fruits, at the conclusion of repentance on the inward cross, who pass through the unquenchable fire of the Holy Spirit's baptism of death to the sinful nature, or 2) those dying in their sins, who must take their part in the lake of fire, commonly called Hell. See Is There Hope for All for more. And God purposed that having made peace through the blood of his cross, to reconcile by him, all things to himself; by him, I say, whether they are things on earth, or things in heaven.
From the Word of the Lord within:
Those who do not die to self through the cross while on earth, go through forced repentance until they are under control and governed by the Lord, (therefore He is truly their Lord), but they: a) are not kings and priests, b) do not live in the higher dimension of the inner court where the kings and priests dwell, c) will live forever in the lower dimension while fully aware of the higher dimension, d) will regret forever that they wasted their time on the earth in foolish pursuits, and e) forever suffer that regret plus the deprivation of the higher dimension.
Note! If you take this scripture out of context with the rest of the Bible's exclusions, requirements, and qualifying conditions of salvation and not being banned from heaven, you could erroneously conclude that all men on the earth, of all religions, or no religion, are in right standing with God and righteousness of life. Realize, this kind of mistake is what the doctrines of modern Christianity are built upon — sand. All will occur, but not all in this life.
