I've been reading the gospels with my family after dinner time as a habit lately, and I've really loved it. But I also read a lot of verses comparing the people who i.e. hear but don't do, and a lot of parables like the parable of the sower in Matthew 13 seem to seperate them. This kind of contradicts a lot of what I know about universalism, which is the belief that we'll all be in Christ eventually. Is this a reference to the people of that time only? Or something about still being punished for not following, even if we are eventually reconciled? There's a lot of similar things later in Matthew, if I remember correctly, with the sheep and the goats passage and the narrow road later in the gospels.
