15 years ago, it was through the writings of this dear man that God delivered me from hopelessness and despair into His victorious Kingdom of life and peace. I will forever be grateful for that.
This is so inspiring - I'm only 17 and sometimes doubt myself because I wonder why God would reveal this truth to me when many vicars and older people don't believe it!
I was scared to death of God, I said I loved him but how can you love something you are so afraid of? I now thank God that He showed me the truth and the true depth of his boundless love.
Great message with a great testimony, so thankful for the small remnant, like Mr Eby, who throughout the ages continued to teach the victorious truth of the gospel. Though, I stumbled upon this truth through self study of the church fathers it is wonderful to find a handful of Believers still to this day who embrace this Truth.
Amen. This is the true gospel of Jesus Christ. The salvation of all in the end. The judgment of God is redemptive and correctional. "For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Tim. 2:3-4)." Jesus Christ is Savior Of ALL.
And what have you done with the rest of the Bible? What book, chapter, and verse says that the Lake of Fire is temporary? What book, chaper, and verse teaches purgatory? Because all that remedial-hell is, is a rebranding of purgatory.
I spent four years consuming all of J Preston Eby's writings. His writings alone, infused by the Holy Spirit, completely delivered me from the Eternal Damnation scam. That was from 1989 to 1993, the message and glory is only getting stronger. My earlier comment, eight years ago, was as New Earth Administration. A shadow crossed my heart to find out Preston died February 16, 2022. He had the message, but did not actualize the fullness of the Second Coming. Thank you Jesus, for using J Preston Eby.
We all Love J Preston Eby!!! He Lives on in Father's Kingdom And within Us through his Inspired Word of God. He always led us not to look at himself, but, Look To Christ!!!!!❤ Soo Grateful
Preston is simply preaching the Abrahamic Covenant, that, "in thy seed shall all people be blessed" (Acts 3:19-26). His writings (Saviour of the World series) changed my life, and opened my eyes to who Jesus really is - the Saviour of All. There is not one verse that says or alludes to, that people cannot accept Jesus after they die.
well said it always remind me of this verse in Jeremiah 29 God has a plan for us and he knows that full well, plan of prosperity and not of calamity, hope and a future.
@@christophgouws8311 you have a mind of man. That says they deserved to be punished. God has a mind of benevolence that says they deserve to be reconciled to Him. Is God unwilling or unable to save all people? Cause I have multiple scripture showing He is both willing and able. You hate the word of God. Your heart is hardened to hate your enemy and wish upon him endless suffering. You worship a failed "God" and "Messiah". Who came to save the world from sin and death and do not save but a few. You have little faith in the benevolence and omnipotence of God.
Demiurge Shadow It's oky brother, if God ever lights your heart so you can see the guilt before Him and you cry out be merciful to me a sinner, then you'll understand and appreciate the mercy of God.
Your teachings were my "booklet" several years ago. Your experience is exactly what happened to me, & I am alone also. My family and friends are HELL bound to believe in a literal & eternal damnation & we are harshly judged for not 'going to church". There is no "church" to attend in our area (TN) & we are isolated & only have each other & of course The Holy Spirit to fellowship with. We can't stand to sit and listen to our Lord being maligned in such grievous ways.
This is an awesome message. I am agnostic and still doubt if there is a God and furthermore if there is a God that Jesus has anything to do with him or that man understand a whit about God. But the message is great and I believe would draw many people to Christianity.
Such a blessing...Praise God....My dad was a Baptist Preacher...steeped deeply in THOSE ROOTS....Several years ago, I found out that John was not THE BAPTIST, John was the Baptizer.....THE LORD HAS RAISED UP THIS BLESSED HOPE IN MY AS WELL FROM THE SAME VERSE...ALSO FROM JOHN'S WORDS...BEHOLD THE LAMB THAT TAKETH AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD....JOHN KNEW THAT AND HE REVEALED IT TO ME TOO...FOR WHEN I WAS AGE TWELVE, LYING ON A DEATH BED FROM AN ISSUE OF BLOOD, HE RAISED ME UP, I LIVED.....DOCTOR'S HAD SAID THERE WAS NOTHING MORE THEY COULD DO.....HALLELUJAH .... NO LONGER I WHO LIVES BUT CHRIST IN ME...GLORY TO GOD....
J. Preston Eby is writing a wonderful work titled "From the Candlestick to the Throne" for anyone wanting insight into the book of Revelation. You can find it at ... sigler org/eby/... God bless you J.Preston Eby and thank God for you.
Amen. Look around on RUclips and you wil find lots and lots of folks with videos proclaiming the really good news. The true gospel keeps gaining ground. Praise God!
2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn their ears away from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Amen, harasopia! I am the perfect example of what you're saying: To make a long story short, God chose me (I didn't choose Him), He saved me from my own sinfulness (I was too ignorant of my sin), He loved me and pursued me when I definitely didn't deserve it! It was all Him, not me. He actually told me that I needed to change my perspective and make Him the subject of everything I thought and did!
Thanks for posting your testimony! No doubt God is greatly blessed that you did, and He is using it to plant and water spiritual seeds in the lives others. Encourage your Christian friends to post their testimonies as well! We can’t have too many Jesus glorifying testimonies on the Internet, can we?
"ye of so little faith, why do you doubt?" Fortunately for you, Jesus said, "Father forgiven him for he does not know what he is doing." God is good all the time, even to those who don't "deserve it."
margovallen, Christ is not dead. He is still very much alive in me and all those who truly belong to His body (only He knows who they are). We must rely on Him alone and listen to Him now because He cannot lie. He will make the Truth real in your heart and change your thinking (like He did to me)!
BoldJonny, you have completely missed the point of ultimate reconciliation. It is NOT that there is no punishment or consequence for our actions. There is, but that punishment is more remedial than punitive, and is not forever. It IS that Christ loved us enough to pay the price for our sins and will ultimately be the victor over Satan. If the majority of mankind will spend the eternities suffering in hell, Satan wins. I believe in a VICTORIOUS Christ, don't you?
After spending the majority of my life in the apostate harlot church system, I review what I used to believe having been under the influence of strong delusion and doctrines of men and demons, and I'm embarrassed and ashamed of the time I believed anything other than salvation of all. I used to believe the typical doctrines of Christianity that were full of contradictions: The savior of the world who doesn't actually accomplish what the father sent him to do (save the world). A God that tells people to love their enemies and forgive 70x7 but doesn't actually follow his own advice. A God that says not to be a respector of persons yet he himself is a respector of persons and by being so is a dinner. A savior who says he will draw all mankind to himself but doesn't actually draw all to himself. The list goes on and on. I'm so thankful to be led to the knowledge of the truth. This makes so much more sense than the teachings of the modern day heretical church system. I too suffer reproach for trusting in the living God who is the savior of all mankind, especially of those who believe. It's really sad to see how vehemently people who profess to be Christian's argue against Jesus Christ being the savior of the world. It has become obvious to me that these people are enslaved in Satan's religious system of harlotry and they literally think they are following Jesus. This gospel of peace really has the power to make us love people more which makes us sin less. Sin is transgression of the law, all the law hangs on one thing: love your neighbor as yourself. When God gives us the faith to believe the truth of the real gospel we realize that when we are in religion we are truly lost. Just as Paul writes, if our gospel is hidden it is hidden to those who are lost. I spent most of my life lost in the Babylon church being tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine by the sleight of men lying in wait to deceive. I thank God everyday for opening my mind and my eyes to the multitude of scripture that clearly state that our Lord and savior Jesus Christ will not and did not fail at the very thing he was sent to do, save the entire world. We should all pray for our loved ones who are lost in this apostate harlot church system where Satan's seat is and where his ministers are deceiving and fleecing God's people. Let's be diligent in praying for these lost souls. Love does not fail.
Of the wilderness. paul wrote: They shall never enter my rest. Also, Lazereth sat by Abraham while the rich man cried for just one drop of water. Im a believer of the 1000 year reign of Christ which reveals a time of salvations (?)
Richman and lazarus is a parable of the spiritual riches of the jews passing to the gentiles. Here are lenghty treatments of the parable: www.tentmaker.org/topics/hell.html
Acts 3:21 speaks of the restoration of all things as spoken by the mouthes of the prophets. What "all things encompasses" probably means all things although us self-centered, prejudiced humans prefer God become a respector of persons and treat us more favorably than our enemies, especially bad angels and the devil.
God delivered me from the philosophy of Universalism, and opened my eyes to the Truth. God taught me to fear Him, and it was terrifying - and it was a GIFT. It is wretched to state, as a fact, that the Follower of Jesus Christ believes in hell because they desire it for others. You don't know how the one who grieves the lost prays fervently for the lost - as I will pray for you and your wife. So sad.
If I quoted from the Young's literal, Rotherham's Emphasized, Concordant literal, Twentieth Century N.T., Weymouths, etc, etc. you'd condemn me for using nonsense translations. If I use your own line of translations to prove universal salvation, you still condemn me. See, friend, it doesn't matter what translation I use, you love your hell, you want some folks it in and you'll find a way of putting some folks in regardless of the translation. Hell is in your heart and until it's removed from the
Well over 90 percent of the world, my friend never got a chance, never heard the gospel and your gospel can't give them a chance because after they die that is no hope for them. But I know a savior who holds the keys to death and hades and knows how to evangelize the dead. I know a Lord of the living AND THE DEAD. I hope one day you'll know such an awesome powerful Savior. He will perfect His love in you and drive all that demonic fear out of you.
Isaiah 33:14 The sinners in Zion are afraid and fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? Isa. 66:22,23 in the new heavens and new earth then vs 24 And they shall go forth and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.

Annihilation falls short. The scriptures say Jesus saves the world. If Jesus loses one soul, even Judas, He misses the mark. I didn't know Jukes ministered to Hudson Taylor. Can you email me your source for that? I'd be interested in that info. Thanks.
You turn the most beautiful expression of God's Love to man, sacrificing His only SON to take our place, our deserved wrath, our deserved separation from Him, our completely deserverd judgment onto Himself to reconcile fallen man (God's enemies) back to a loving relationship with the Father into a cheap bandaid for even those who CHOOSE to reject this free gift, who choose to reject Jesus and what he did on the cross by choosing to not believe in HIM. A cheap get out of hell free for disbelief.
Has it ever occured to you that some people cannot accept love? That they have been so brutalized in their life that they are broken? How dare YOU cheapen the Gospel. You aren't consciously aware of this but you feel superior to other people. However, God loves us equally...and being all powerful, He will prevail.
@tentmaker777 NO I don't deserve any of it, that is what grace is, that is why it is grace, I told you already I am sinner saved by God's Grace, there is NOTHING I could ever do to deserve it, it is completely a free gift to those who believe and call upon the name of the Lord, who repent and make Jesus the King and Lord of their life. No I love HIM BECAUSE HE first loved me, not the other way around. He chose me and called me to repentance, I believed and trusted in HIS Word and HE saved me.
@margovallen our translations certainly make hell appear to be a place of conscious torment for "eternity". BUT when you study the original Greek and Hebrew text (as I hope God puts it in your heart to) it is nothing like what we have been taught in our most TRANSLATIONS. I believe the Scriptural "hell". I agree that once you see the truth in Scriptre and yet cont. disbelieving that would make you an unbeliever.

Annihilation is one way out of explaining the terrible implications of the bad translations of the past but we have an eternal soul . I recommend Andrew jukes . He is available free on the internet. A Baptist minister to Hudson Taylor! God bless
HI SU SAN!!!! Nice to see you on here!!! I love this guy!! So he has writing's?? where did you find them? LOVE U!!! And to J preston Eby!! Thank you thank you thank you!!
The second death is the burial of the flesh and a new creation in Christ. If death and hell is all cast away permanently ,all the wickedness and unbelievers will be made righteousness.
@DJM8002 "This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance and to this end we both labor and suffer reproach (from guys like DJM8002) because we trust in the living God who is the savior of ALL MEN, especially those that believe. These things command and teach." 1 Tim. 4:9-11 THAT is what Paul the apostle to the nations taught, that is what I teach, that is what the word of God teaches and anyone who teaches otherwise (Lke DJM8002) is deceived according to the Bible.
Dear precious children of God, if you visit the Tentmaker Ministries web site (you tube won't let me put in a url), and see the FAQ section, there are SEVERAL detailed explanations of what this clear PARABLE speaks of. Scriptures say: Mat 13:34 "All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:" So parables should NEVER be understood literally. Jesus introduced the parable speaking of divorce. So who's getting divorced, sinners or Israel?
is there someone out there I can speak with who believes what J Preston Eby teaches..... I feel alone because I have no one to speak with about these things....make no mistake I dont feel ALONE.....not that....its just that there is no person around me - a human being- to speak with....I know what Preston teaches is TRUE.... I want to know MORE
It can be a lonely road as so few Christians believe like this. My very best friend who shared it with me has gone Home. I have to talk to God about it.
Demiurge Shadow when I started praying for truth...not mans truth but Gods truth...that is when my life started changing. My early southern Baptist beliefs were challenged and I suddenly realized what grace truly was. I am now a universalist and walk alone as I know no one who believes the way I do. 😪
That was my whole point. There are millions of Christians who have read the Bible. I met a man who almost had the entire KJV memorized and he was one of the biggest devils I've come across. Jesus is the Word of God sent into the earth to bring all of God's children Home. Jesus will be found faithful to fulfill the Word of the Father. Jesus will be faithful to save the world from its bondage to corruption. After all, who subjected the world to futility in the first place? Rom. 8:20
Cont. So, a good free book to read on the mistranslation of Olam in Hebrew and its Greek equivalent aion and it adjective aionios would be "aion-aionios" by Dr. J.W. Hanson which you can read at the Tentmaker Ministries site. There are also shorter works on these words at the Scholars Corner page of Tentmaker Ministries.
You wrote: I pray that you come to the full knowledge of the truth. Well, dkarnish, you're half way home. Here's the better part of that verse. "1Ti 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 1Ti 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 1Ti 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. Wow, Believe it!
@tentmaker777 Jesus said in John 14:6 'I am the way, and the truth, and the LIFE, no man cometh unto the Father, but through me.' If someone rejects Jesus how can they still be saved? If someone rejects God's gift of love to fallen mankind how can they be saved? SAVED from what? If a man gains his life he will surely lose it, but a man that loses His life for my sake will gain it? Jesus said you must be born again to enter the kingdom of heaven, how are those who reject Jesus be born again?
@margovallen (cont) the word preached to grow.we who believe Scripture are begotton not of the will of man but OF GOD. (John 1:13) "Not you choose me (Jesus) but I choose you" (john 15:16)
@DJM8002 Yes, that is true. And this is also true that "every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is Lord TO THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER." not to His shame. Everyone either on this side of the grave or the other side will meet the real Jesus, not the twisted false image the church has painted for 1600 years and they will ALLLL fall in love with Him. It's in the Bible, but fear has blinded you to the truth.
@tentmaker777 Yes the penalty for mankind Sin HAS already been paid for, but not the rejection of Jesus by those who chose in this life. I told you before, people make their choice to accept that forgiveness, they realize they are LOST without Jesus, but there are those who choose to reject Him, and they will be eternally separated from the Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. You are SAVED, by grace, through faith? SAVED from what, what are we SAVED from? Did you miss this part of Romans?
@margovallen salvation, grace and faith are all the gifts of God and none "choose Christ" until he first gives that faith. (eph 2:8-9) no amount of preaching the word (sowing the seed) will profit anyone until God causes the word to grow (the parable in Mt 13) and it is God who causes the seed/word of the Gospel to grow (1 Cor 3:6) Salvation is wholly by grace and of God if anyone rejects Christ now it is because he has not YET given them faith.
@DJM8002 The Gate is as narrow as one person, the person Jesus Christ. And few find Him, but HE FINDS EVERYONE because He came to seek and save them which are lost. Where you once lost, my friend? Did you find Jesus or did He find you? Be VERY careful how you answer that question, lest pride betray you.
So if you'll just extend this same grace God gave you as a free gift to every person under the sun, you'll be home free. Carefully read Romans chapter five using several translations cause the don't read the same, but especially Romans 5:18. Again what's YOUR translation? Rom 5:18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
@mwilson70201 note the word "carcases". also the words "the fire not quenched" is used in other places of scripture where the fire actually burned out...but not until it had accomplished its purpose. also look up the hebrew for "worm" and you find it is speaking of maggots. maggots and carcases go together like peas and carrots. Also this is refering to Gehenna/Vally of Hinnom, a place outside Jerusalem where city trash was burned and not hell where all the dead r till the ressurection. (ecl 9)
Visit Tentmaker Ministries website, go to Scholars Corner, then Bible Threatenings explained then use keyboard control f and type in the box NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD You'll find your answer to your verse there. You can download the entire book FREE!
@margovallen My point is you cannot rely on the KJV to be 100 percent accurate. If it were a perfect translation then they would never have had to make corrections or remove entire books from it. We can't base our doctirnes on any imperfect translation even if it were "the most accurate". Just because the KJV says so doesn't make it true. Sometimes we need to go to the original Greek/Hebrew text and study the usage of words. Usage is the best way of determining a words meaning.
@tentmaker777 I read every translation I can get my hand on, I know God would not give me a broken record of Himself and then leave me to try to figure it all out. He protects HIS HOLY WORD, no I don't have the originals, neither does anyone else but Greek is still Greek, and Hebrew is still Hebrew, and we have 25,000 copies of the original copies that have been scrutinized over for almost two millennia, by some men who's sole object was to glorify the name of Jesus by getting it right.
@tentmaker777 I am sorry that with all those translations you have you still missed what God was saying through His own words. I have Jesus and Holy Spirit to lead my unto all truth about who he is and what His Word says about him. I'm gonna turn the other cheek on the brainwashed comment, do you read one verse without reading the rest of the chapter around it? Right before that Verse 38 he told the teachers of the law that they didn't have God's word abiding in them, thats why he stated vs 39
On Tentmaker Ministries web site is "Scholars Corner." and a book "Bible Threatenings Explained." Under "everlasting destruction" is the answer to your question. No, I don't make God a liar, you do. Jesus said He came to save the world. You don't believe He can. We'll find out who is the liar, you or Jesus. Rom 3:3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? Rom 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written,
Friend, when Jesus saved me, He send me the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth who leads me into all truth. And He has given me such a hunger for the truth, (Jesus) that a few problems in Bible translations is not too much of a stumbling block for me these days. The Savior of the world is found in EVERY Bible translation. And when Jesus draws a person by His Spirit, that person WILL MOVE. Ask Paul the apostle, the chiefest of sinners, a murderer of Christians. Paul never chose Jesus, neither did
@tentmaker777 I already answered this for you I thought, did you misunderstand what I stated in a previous post? I have been honest with you from the very beginning. I have nothing to hide about which translations I have been reading.
@dkarnish but why did he never once warn the countless people of this "eternal hell" in the old testament? what happens to these people? what happens to the people who die with never hearing the good news or never having the opportunity to (babies and children for instance)? and if all things are possible with God why did he choose to subject these people to such a cruel and infinite punishment for finite sin when he could have simply taken life from them completly. whats hell look like to you?
@margovallen hi:) i know that our english word "hell" appears in translations of Script. But what is it and who goes there? After studying the original Greek and Hebrew words translated "hell" I've come to see that it is nothing like what we have been taught by most teachers in Christianity. Eccl 9, Psalms 146:4 tells us that all the dead go to sheol(hebrew word translated hell)/hades(Greek translated hell) and that the dead do not know anything and their thoughts have perished (no conscousness)
Matthew 12:31 Wherefore I say unto, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy of the Holy Ghost SHALL NOT be forgiven unto men. 32 And whosover speaketh a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him: but who so ever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it SHALL NOT BE FORGIVEN HIM, NEITHER IN THIS WORLD, NEITHER IN THE WORLD TO COME.
By your own words you make Jesus, the LORD, and creator of this world, every thing and every one in it out to be a liar. 2 Thessalonians 1:7b when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, 8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 9 Who shall be punished with EVERLASTING* destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory or His power. *Greek AIDIOS permanence and UNchangeableness!
@tentmaker777 So in Luke chapter 16 in YOUR translation, what does it say? Who is Jesus speaking about and is he only speaking metaphorically? Since you decry all but your approved versions of the Holy Bible why don't you read to us here what it says about Lazarus and the rich man. Is Jesus just making this up then? Is he just telling a story? What is your universalist opinion or view of this passage?
@tentmaker777 Men are men, and God is God, there are people who aren't Christians who read and have known what the Bible says, but they don't believe it, The devil knows scripture, better than anyone, thats why he has been trying to twist it and corrupt it from the beginning in the garden. He showed this when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness. Jesus is faithful to save those who believe and accept Him as Lord and savior, Romans 8:20 is about God doing away with death and decay for creation.
Telling the world the the All powerful, all loving, all wise, all just God of the Universe who sent His Son to save humanity yet ends up losing most of mankind to a places of exquisite tortures that God made really glorifies God? Hey, children of the world! Which God is easier to truth and love? A God who pretends to love all mankind yet actually has creaed a place in which most of them are going to be tortured FOREVER? Or a God who is powerful and loving enough to save us all? It's a no brainer
The Hebrew Scriptures do not define Sheol as a place of eternal tortures. It is the place of the dead, Moses is there. David is there. "Lo though I make my bed in Hell/sheol lo thou art there." All the dead, good, bad and ugly were in the same place. The dead were asleep, they knew nothing, could not praise God, etc. That is why they needed a resurection. That is what jesus' purpose was, to raise all who died in Adam to give them His life, a free gift to all. Adam condemned all, Christ brought l
15 years ago, it was through the writings of this dear man that God delivered me from hopelessness and despair into His victorious Kingdom of life and peace. I will forever be grateful for that.

Amen! So many believers suffer from the worst form of cognitive dissonance
Thank you for sharing. I am thankful that God allowed me to come to the knowledge of this truth some 15 years ago. God bless.
Great message with a great testimony, so thankful for the small remnant, like Mr Eby, who throughout the ages continued to teach the victorious truth of the gospel. Though, I stumbled upon this truth through self study of the church fathers it is wonderful to find a handful of Believers still to this day who embrace this Truth.
Amen. This is the true gospel of Jesus Christ. The salvation of all in the end. The judgment of God is redemptive and correctional. "For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Tim. 2:3-4)." Jesus Christ is Savior Of ALL.
And what have you done with the rest of the Bible? What book, chapter, and verse says that the Lake of Fire is temporary? What book, chaper, and verse teaches purgatory? Because all that remedial-hell is, is a rebranding of purgatory.

It does bring peace to realize How awesome The Love of God Truly is!!
A comforting and encouraging message full of much needed reassurance and wonderful hope.
Beautifully said, clear and simple. God does have a plan!
I spent four years consuming all of J Preston Eby's writings. His writings alone, infused by the Holy Spirit, completely delivered me from the Eternal Damnation scam. That was from 1989 to 1993, the message and glory is only getting stronger. My earlier comment, eight years ago, was as New Earth Administration. A shadow crossed my heart to find out Preston died February 16, 2022. He had the message, but did not actualize the fullness of the Second Coming. Thank you Jesus, for using J Preston Eby.
Praise be to Jesus Christ Our Lord and Savior!!!
How truly and wonderfully God has revealed His purposes through the writings and preaching of these selfless saints..
can you tell me more about what Bro Eby has taught
Visit kingdom Bible Studies. It's a large site posting all his articles.
We all Love J Preston Eby!!! He Lives on in Father's Kingdom And within Us through his Inspired Word of God. He always led us not to look at himself, but, Look To Christ!!!!!❤ Soo Grateful
Preston is simply preaching the Abrahamic Covenant, that, "in thy seed shall all people be blessed" (Acts 3:19-26). His writings (Saviour of the World series) changed my life, and opened my eyes to who Jesus really is - the Saviour of All. There is not one verse that says or alludes to, that people cannot accept Jesus after they die.
ever knee shell bow and even tongue shell confess Jesus is lord
Amen! Love all your videos exposing the Eternal Damnation scam!
Awesome truth. God bless you bro. Eby
Well said and the truly Good News I always have hoped for, and we will all live Happily Ever After.
Love ya brother and sister! Thank you!!
The true message behind the gospel 😊
This is very wholesome.
well said it always remind me of this verse in Jeremiah 29 God has a plan for us and he knows that full well, plan of prosperity and not of calamity, hope and a future.
To those who believe Him, His own, not everyone.
so God could give everyone faith, but He doesnt, and then eternally tortures them because He didnt give them saving faith?
Demiurge Shadow No no, they're sinners, they deserve to be punished. So do I and so do you. Stop thinking you're not a sinner.
@@christophgouws8311 you have a mind of man. That says they deserved to be punished. God has a mind of benevolence that says they deserve to be reconciled to Him.
Is God unwilling or unable to save all people? Cause I have multiple scripture showing He is both willing and able.
You hate the word of God. Your heart is hardened to hate your enemy and wish upon him endless suffering.
You worship a failed "God" and "Messiah". Who came to save the world from sin and death and do not save but a few.
You have little faith in the benevolence and omnipotence of God.
Demiurge Shadow It's oky brother, if God ever lights your heart so you can see the guilt before Him and you cry out be merciful to me a sinner, then you'll understand and appreciate the mercy of God.
The GOOD News...
Amen! Thank you.
Your teachings were my "booklet" several years ago. Your experience is exactly what happened to me, & I am alone also. My family and friends are HELL bound to believe in a literal & eternal damnation & we are harshly judged for not 'going to church". There is no "church" to attend in our area (TN) & we are isolated & only have each other & of course The Holy Spirit to fellowship with. We can't stand to sit and listen to our Lord being maligned in such grievous ways.
What's your thought on these teachings these days ? Thank you
we are free...praise God and his real gospel
This is an awesome message. I am agnostic and still doubt if there is a God and furthermore if there is a God that Jesus has anything to do with him or that man understand a whit about God. But the message is great and I believe would draw many people to Christianity.
Thankfully, He is very real! 😊

@TheSaviouroftheworld
Yes, we will ALLLL meet each other one day. That's good news. Jesus Christ, Savior of the world, loser of none.
Amen, harasopia! I am the perfect example of what you're saying: To make a long story short, God chose me (I didn't choose Him), He saved me from my own sinfulness (I was too ignorant of my sin), He loved me and pursued me when I definitely didn't deserve it! It was all Him, not me. He actually told me that I needed to change my perspective and make Him the subject of everything I thought and did!
Thanks for posting your testimony! No doubt God is greatly blessed that you did, and He is using it to plant and water spiritual seeds in the lives others. Encourage your Christian friends to post their testimonies as well! We can’t have too many Jesus glorifying testimonies on the Internet, can we?
"ye of so little faith, why do you doubt?" Fortunately for you, Jesus said, "Father forgiven him for he does not know what he is doing." God is good all the time, even to those who don't "deserve it."
Still...
A Blessed Hope...
No an expectation.
margovallen, Christ is not dead. He is still very much alive in me and all those who truly belong to His body (only He knows who they are). We must rely on Him alone and listen to Him now because He cannot lie. He will make the Truth real in your heart and change your thinking (like He did to me)!
BoldJonny, you have completely missed the point of ultimate reconciliation. It is NOT that there is no punishment or consequence for our actions. There is, but that punishment is more remedial than punitive, and is not forever. It IS that Christ loved us enough to pay the price for our sins and will ultimately be the victor over Satan. If the majority of mankind will spend the eternities suffering in hell, Satan wins. I believe in a VICTORIOUS Christ, don't you?
I remember the event, the church, hurrying to the altar, but not the day or hour of my salvation.
After spending the majority of my life in the apostate harlot church system, I review what I used to believe having been under the influence of strong delusion and doctrines of men and demons, and I'm embarrassed and ashamed of the time I believed anything other than salvation of all.
I used to believe the typical doctrines of Christianity that were full of contradictions: The savior of the world who doesn't actually accomplish what the father sent him to do (save the world). A God that tells people to love their enemies and forgive 70x7 but doesn't actually follow his own advice. A God that says not to be a respector of persons yet he himself is a respector of persons and by being so is a dinner. A savior who says he will draw all mankind to himself but doesn't actually draw all to himself. The list goes on and on.
I'm so thankful to be led to the knowledge of the truth. This makes so much more sense than the teachings of the modern day heretical church system. I too suffer reproach for trusting in the living God who is the savior of all mankind, especially of those who believe. It's really sad to see how vehemently people who profess to be Christian's argue against Jesus Christ being the savior of the world. It has become obvious to me that these people are enslaved in Satan's religious system of harlotry and they literally think they are following Jesus. This gospel of peace really has the power to make us love people more which makes us sin less. Sin is transgression of the law, all the law hangs on one thing: love your neighbor as yourself. When God gives us the faith to believe the truth of the real gospel we realize that when we are in religion we are truly lost. Just as Paul writes, if our gospel is hidden it is hidden to those who are lost. I spent most of my life lost in the Babylon church being tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine by the sleight of men lying in wait to deceive. I thank God everyday for opening my mind and my eyes to the multitude of scripture that clearly state that our Lord and savior Jesus Christ will not and did not fail at the very thing he was sent to do, save the entire world. We should all pray for our loved ones who are lost in this apostate harlot church system where Satan's seat is and where his ministers are deceiving and fleecing God's people. Let's be diligent in praying for these lost souls. Love does not fail.
“So I salvaged the book out of the coals . . .” 😊 I had to chuckle at that.

Of the wilderness. paul wrote: They shall never enter my rest.
Also, Lazereth sat by Abraham while the rich man cried for just one drop of water.
Im a believer of the 1000 year reign of Christ which reveals a time of salvations (?)
Richman and lazarus is a parable of the spiritual riches of the jews passing to the gentiles. Here are lenghty treatments of the parable: www.tentmaker.org/topics/hell.html
tentmaker777 .... were all on a journey. no one is there yet.
Acts 3:21 speaks of the restoration of all things as spoken by the mouthes of the prophets. What "all things encompasses" probably means all things although us self-centered, prejudiced humans prefer God become a respector of persons and treat us more favorably than our enemies, especially bad angels and the devil.
Romans 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all 👈🏼and upon all 👈🏼them that believe: for there is no difference:👈🏼
amen! awesome!!!!!
God delivered me from the philosophy of Universalism, and opened my eyes to the Truth. God taught me to fear Him, and it was terrifying - and it was a GIFT. It is wretched to state, as a fact, that the Follower of Jesus Christ believes in hell because they desire it for others. You don't know how the one who grieves the lost prays fervently for the lost - as I will pray for you and your wife. So sad.
Yes, it's the truth!
Amazing
If I quoted from the Young's literal, Rotherham's Emphasized, Concordant literal, Twentieth Century N.T., Weymouths, etc, etc. you'd condemn me for using nonsense translations. If I use your own line of translations to prove universal salvation, you still condemn me. See, friend, it doesn't matter what translation I use, you love your hell, you want some folks it in and you'll find a way of putting some folks in regardless of the translation. Hell is in your heart and until it's removed from the
Well over 90 percent of the world, my friend never got a chance, never heard the gospel and your gospel can't give them a chance because after they die that is no hope for them. But I know a savior who holds the keys to death and hades and knows how to evangelize the dead. I know a Lord of the living AND THE DEAD. I hope one day you'll know such an awesome powerful Savior. He will perfect His love in you and drive all that demonic fear out of you.
Isaiah 33:14 The sinners in Zion are afraid and fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? Isa. 66:22,23 in the new heavens and new earth then vs 24 And they shall go forth and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh. Ye must be born again or wind up here

Annihilation falls short. The scriptures say Jesus saves the world. If Jesus loses one soul, even Judas, He misses the mark. I didn't know Jukes ministered to Hudson Taylor. Can you email me your source for that? I'd be interested in that info. Thanks.
Sad enough to know loved ones passed then having to worry if they are going to heaven or burn in fire.
You turn the most beautiful expression of God's Love to man, sacrificing His only SON to take our place, our deserved wrath, our deserved separation from Him, our completely deserverd judgment onto Himself to reconcile fallen man (God's enemies) back to a loving relationship with the Father into a cheap bandaid for even those who CHOOSE to reject this free gift, who choose to reject Jesus and what he did on the cross by choosing to not believe in HIM. A cheap get out of hell free for disbelief.
Has it ever occured to you that some people cannot accept love? That they have been so brutalized in their life that they are broken? How dare YOU cheapen the Gospel. You aren't consciously aware of this but you feel superior to other people. However, God loves us equally...and being all powerful, He will prevail.
No one from Adam all the way up to now be thrown away.
@tentmaker777 NO I don't deserve any of it, that is what grace is, that is why it is grace, I told you already I am sinner saved by God's Grace, there is NOTHING I could ever do to deserve it, it is completely a free gift to those who believe and call upon the name of the Lord, who repent and make Jesus the King and Lord of their life. No I love HIM BECAUSE HE first loved me, not the other way around. He chose me and called me to repentance, I believed and trusted in HIS Word and HE saved me.
Amen. This is the true gospel. Saved by grace alone. And saved from what? Saved from physical hell
How can a god of love torture people for eternity.
@margovallen our translations certainly make hell appear to be a place of conscious torment for "eternity". BUT when you study the original Greek and Hebrew text (as I hope God puts it in your heart to) it is nothing like what we have been taught in our most TRANSLATIONS. I believe the Scriptural "hell". I agree that once you see the truth in Scriptre and yet cont. disbelieving that would make you an unbeliever.
I understand. I've had to do the same thing.
My only disappointment is that I thought Mr. Eby's lovely wife was going to share her experience as well.
Yes, I'm sorry it didn't turn out either.
The purpose of "Comments" is for a person to leave a comment positive or negative. This is NOT a discussion board. Anyone like dkarnish or peterpulpitpounder who hound this video leaving hundreds of posts is a SPAMMER and inconsiderate. These incessant posts will be removed not because the producer of the video is afraid of these spams but because these spammers are rude and inconsiderate.
Annihilation is one way out of explaining the terrible implications of the bad translations of the past but we have an eternal soul . I recommend Andrew jukes . He is available free on the internet. A Baptist minister to Hudson Taylor! God bless
HI SU SAN!!!! Nice to see you on here!!! I love this guy!! So he has writing's?? where did you find them? LOVE U!!!
And to J preston Eby!! Thank you thank you thank you!!
The second death is the burial of the flesh and a new creation in Christ. If death and hell is all cast away permanently ,all the wickedness and unbelievers will be made righteousness.
@DJM8002 "This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance and to this end we both labor and suffer reproach (from guys like DJM8002) because we trust in the living God who is the savior of ALL MEN, especially those that believe. These things command and teach." 1 Tim. 4:9-11 THAT is what Paul the apostle to the nations taught, that is what I teach, that is what the word of God teaches and anyone who teaches otherwise (Lke DJM8002) is deceived according to the Bible.
Dear precious children of God, if you visit the Tentmaker Ministries web site (you tube won't let me put in a url), and see the FAQ section, there are SEVERAL detailed explanations of what this clear PARABLE speaks of. Scriptures say: Mat 13:34 "All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:" So parables should NEVER be understood literally. Jesus introduced the parable speaking of divorce. So who's getting divorced, sinners or Israel?
is there someone out there I can speak with who believes what J Preston Eby teaches..... I feel alone because I have no one to speak with about these things....make no mistake I dont feel ALONE.....not that....its just that there is no person around me - a human being- to speak with....I know what Preston teaches is TRUE.... I want to know MORE
If you contact their web site, you can leave a message and someone will get back to you.
Me too, its amazing, bread of heaven. Cuanto quisiera hablar con alguien que hable español y compartir estas maravillas!!!
It can be a lonely road as so few Christians believe like this. My very best friend who shared it with me has gone Home. I have to talk to God about it.
William Hensley I know this is old but God always reveals truth to very few. There are not many elect. But we are out there.
Demiurge Shadow when I started praying for truth...not mans truth but Gods truth...that is when my life started changing. My early southern Baptist beliefs were challenged and I suddenly realized what grace truly was. I am now a universalist and walk alone as I know no one who believes the way I do. 😪
That was my whole point. There are millions of Christians who have read the Bible. I met a man who almost had the entire KJV memorized and he was one of the biggest devils I've come across. Jesus is the Word of God sent into the earth to bring all of God's children Home. Jesus will be found faithful to fulfill the Word of the Father. Jesus will be faithful to save the world from its bondage to corruption. After all, who subjected the world to futility in the first place? Rom. 8:20
Cont. So, a good free book to read on the mistranslation of Olam in Hebrew and its Greek equivalent aion and it adjective aionios would be "aion-aionios" by Dr. J.W. Hanson which you can read at the Tentmaker Ministries site. There are also shorter works on these words at the Scholars Corner page of Tentmaker Ministries.
You wrote: I pray that you come to the full knowledge of the truth. Well, dkarnish, you're half way home. Here's the better part of that verse. "1Ti 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
1Ti 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
1Ti 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. Wow, Believe it!
@tentmaker777 Jesus said in John 14:6 'I am the way, and the truth, and the LIFE, no man cometh unto the Father, but through me.' If someone rejects Jesus how can they still be saved? If someone rejects God's gift of love to fallen mankind how can they be saved? SAVED from what? If a man gains his life he will surely lose it, but a man that loses His life for my sake will gain it? Jesus said you must be born again to enter the kingdom of heaven, how are those who reject Jesus be born again?
@margovallen (cont) the word preached to grow.we who believe Scripture are begotton not of the will of man but OF GOD. (John 1:13) "Not you choose me (Jesus) but I choose you" (john 15:16)
@DJM8002 Yes, that is true. And this is also true that "every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is Lord TO THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER." not to His shame. Everyone either on this side of the grave or the other side will meet the real Jesus, not the twisted false image the church has painted for 1600 years and they will ALLLL fall in love with Him. It's in the Bible, but fear has blinded you to the truth.
@tentmaker777 Yes the penalty for mankind Sin HAS already been paid for, but not the rejection of Jesus by those who chose in this life. I told you before, people make their choice to accept that forgiveness, they realize they are LOST without Jesus, but there are those who choose to reject Him, and they will be eternally separated from the Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. You are SAVED, by grace, through faith? SAVED from what, what are we SAVED from? Did you miss this part of Romans?
@margovallen salvation, grace and faith are all the gifts of God and none "choose Christ" until he first gives that faith. (eph 2:8-9) no amount of preaching the word (sowing the seed) will profit anyone until God causes the word to grow (the parable in Mt 13) and it is God who causes the seed/word of the Gospel to grow (1 Cor 3:6) Salvation is wholly by grace and of God if anyone rejects Christ now it is because he has not YET given them faith.
@DJM8002 The Gate is as narrow as one person, the person Jesus Christ. And few find Him, but HE FINDS EVERYONE because He came to seek and save them which are lost. Where you once lost, my friend? Did you find Jesus or did He find you? Be VERY careful how you answer that question, lest pride betray you.
So if you'll just extend this same grace God gave you as a free gift to every person under the sun, you'll be home free. Carefully read Romans chapter five using several translations cause the don't read the same, but especially Romans 5:18. Again what's YOUR translation?
Rom 5:18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
@mwilson70201 note the word "carcases". also the words "the fire not quenched" is used in other places of scripture where the fire actually burned out...but not until it had accomplished its purpose. also look up the hebrew for "worm" and you find it is speaking of maggots. maggots and carcases go together like peas and carrots. Also this is refering to Gehenna/Vally of Hinnom, a place outside Jerusalem where city trash was burned and not hell where all the dead r till the ressurection. (ecl 9)
Visit Tentmaker Ministries website, go to Scholars Corner, then Bible Threatenings explained then use keyboard control f and type in the box NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD You'll find your answer to your verse there. You can download the entire book FREE!
Andrew Jukes and Hudson Taylor are mentioned together in wikipedia
@margovallen My point is you cannot rely on the KJV to be 100 percent accurate. If it were a perfect translation then they would never have had to make corrections or remove entire books from it. We can't base our doctirnes on any imperfect translation even if it were "the most accurate". Just because the KJV says so doesn't make it true. Sometimes we need to go to the original Greek/Hebrew text and study the usage of words. Usage is the best way of determining a words meaning.
@whodidyouexpect
Well, you're welcomed.
@tentmaker777 I read every translation I can get my hand on, I know God would not give me a broken record of Himself and then leave me to try to figure it all out. He protects HIS HOLY WORD, no I don't have the originals, neither does anyone else but Greek is still Greek, and Hebrew is still Hebrew, and we have 25,000 copies of the original copies that have been scrutinized over for almost two millennia, by some men who's sole object was to glorify the name of Jesus by getting it right.
@tentmaker777 I am sorry that with all those translations you have you still missed what God was saying through His own words. I have Jesus and Holy Spirit to lead my unto all truth about who he is and what His Word says about him. I'm gonna turn the other cheek on the brainwashed comment, do you read one verse without reading the rest of the chapter around it? Right before that Verse 38 he told the teachers of the law that they didn't have God's word abiding in them, thats why he stated vs 39
On Tentmaker Ministries web site is "Scholars Corner." and a book "Bible Threatenings Explained." Under "everlasting destruction" is the answer to your question. No, I don't make God a liar, you do. Jesus said He came to save the world. You don't believe He can. We'll find out who is the liar, you or Jesus. Rom 3:3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
Rom 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written,
Friend, when Jesus saved me, He send me the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth who leads me into all truth. And He has given me such a hunger for the truth, (Jesus) that a few problems in Bible translations is not too much of a stumbling block for me these days. The Savior of the world is found in EVERY Bible translation. And when Jesus draws a person by His Spirit, that person WILL MOVE. Ask Paul the apostle, the chiefest of sinners, a murderer of Christians. Paul never chose Jesus, neither did
@tentmaker777 I already answered this for you I thought, did you misunderstand what I stated in a previous post? I have been honest with you from the very beginning. I have nothing to hide about which translations I have been reading.
@dkarnish but why did he never once warn the countless people of this "eternal hell" in the old testament? what happens to these people? what happens to the people who die with never hearing the good news or never having the opportunity to (babies and children for instance)? and if all things are possible with God why did he choose to subject these people to such a cruel and infinite punishment for finite sin when he could have simply taken life from them completly. whats hell look like to you?
@margovallen hi:) i know that our english word "hell" appears in translations of Script. But what is it and who goes there? After studying the original Greek and Hebrew words translated "hell" I've come to see that it is nothing like what we have been taught by most teachers in Christianity. Eccl 9, Psalms 146:4 tells us that all the dead go to sheol(hebrew word translated hell)/hades(Greek translated hell) and that the dead do not know anything and their thoughts have perished (no conscousness)
Matthew 12:31 Wherefore I say unto, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy of the Holy Ghost SHALL NOT be forgiven unto men. 32 And whosover speaketh a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him: but who so ever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it SHALL NOT BE FORGIVEN HIM, NEITHER IN THIS WORLD, NEITHER IN THE WORLD TO COME.
By your own words you make Jesus, the LORD, and creator of this world, every thing and every one in it out to be a liar. 2 Thessalonians 1:7b when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, 8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 9 Who shall be punished with EVERLASTING* destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory or His power. *Greek AIDIOS permanence and UNchangeableness!
@tentmaker777 So in Luke chapter 16 in YOUR translation, what does it say? Who is Jesus speaking about and is he only speaking metaphorically? Since you decry all but your approved versions of the Holy Bible why don't you read to us here what it says about Lazarus and the rich man. Is Jesus just making this up then? Is he just telling a story? What is your universalist opinion or view of this passage?
@tentmaker777 Men are men, and God is God, there are people who aren't Christians who read and have known what the Bible says, but they don't believe it, The devil knows scripture, better than anyone, thats why he has been trying to twist it and corrupt it from the beginning in the garden. He showed this when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness. Jesus is faithful to save those who believe and accept Him as Lord and savior, Romans 8:20 is about God doing away with death and decay for creation.
Telling the world the the All powerful, all loving, all wise, all just God of the Universe who sent His Son to save humanity yet ends up losing most of mankind to a places of exquisite tortures that God made really glorifies God? Hey, children of the world! Which God is easier to truth and love? A God who pretends to love all mankind yet actually has creaed a place in which most of them are going to be tortured FOREVER? Or a God who is powerful and loving enough to save us all? It's a no brainer
@dwellceller
I asked him that and he didn't remember. But it's a great testimony.
The Hebrew Scriptures do not define Sheol as a place of eternal tortures. It is the place of the dead, Moses is there. David is there. "Lo though I make my bed in Hell/sheol lo thou art there." All the dead, good, bad and ugly were in the same place. The dead were asleep, they knew nothing, could not praise God, etc. That is why they needed a resurection. That is what jesus' purpose was, to raise all who died in Adam to give them His life, a free gift to all. Adam condemned all, Christ brought l
