Thank you
Hello all! I hope this post is okay to make, but I just wanted to thank everyone here for the wealth of knowledge this page has and all of the time and energy that has gone into building it. It has truly been life giving from each succinct comment to each thorough post. I know it takes time and thought to write each post and I am so grateful to have the good fortune of learning from you all. I was raised in a strict ECT household and about seven years ago I would say that I started to stop believing in God, I just couldn’t reconcile ECT with the person I saw in Jesus and I was tormented by the thought of people I loved and just people in general suffering for all of eternity and that God abandoned them. I’m still very much new and still figuring things out and still learning, but this is the closest I’ve ever felt to God and for the first time I want to draw to Him not for fear of punishment but because He is truly beautiful. I just happened upon Christian Universalism because a friend mentioned it and it has breathed life into my faith. And I feel energized to share with others the beauty and love of God, again not for fear of punishment but in reverence of Him.
Thank you all for this.
Thank you again for this wonderful space.
