                                                    Freedom versus Tyranny

All of God's attributes are Almighty. His Love is Almighty and can never fail. I Corinthians 13:8. Since God's Will is Almighty, then it can never be permanently checked by man's puny will. Because of Mark 6:5-6, many suppose that man's unbelief can thwart God's Will, but unbelief can only delay God's Will. God put the goodness of faith into His image in every human He has and will ever create. Genesis 1:31; Romans 12:3. Despite man's choices to sin or not to sin, to believe or not believe, God knows exactly how to eventually cause every human who ever lived to return to faith in Him of their own free will to a higher or lower form of salvation. Daniel 4:35 clearly teaches that God's Will can never be thwarted. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; Isaiah 45:21-25; Luke 3:6; Genesis 12:1-3.

II Peter 3:9 teaches that God is "not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." Since God's Will is Almighty and can never be thwarted, then God will definitely save every human who ever lived with either a higher or a lower form of salvation. Since I Timothy 6:13 teaches that God "quickenth all things," then God must, sooner or later, recover His good lives in all humans either to a higher or a lower form of salvation. Since I Timothy 4:10 clearly states that God "is the Savior of all men," then He must actually save all men since His Will and His Love are Almighty. The phrase "especially of those that believe" means those who receive God's special salvation by His grace. Since God's statement in Revelation 21:5, "Behold, I make all things new" must certainly be true, then God must recreate all things that He created in the first place, including all living humans. Since God created "all things" in Colossians 1:16, and He will "reconcile all things to Himself," whether they be in earth or in Heaven in Colossians 1:20, then He must recover and recreate every living human whom He ever created with a higher or a lower form of salvation. Acts 3:20-21; Romans 8:18-22; John 5:28-29; Romans 11:36; Romans 11:29; II Timothy 4:1.

God gave freedom to humans to test His Love. God knows that His Love cannot fail, but He must prove that to His creations because Lucifer's rebellion caused doubt to enter into His creations. John 20:24-29. Satan counts on causing humans to choose to do the worst evils possible to the extent that he causes the annulment and the eternal torture and death of at least one living human and thereby prove that God's Love and His Almighty Power can fail. But God knows exactly how to prove that He can turn every living human back to His Love and recreation of their own free will. Job 1:11; Job 2:5; Job 2:9-10; John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14. Satan believes that if he can cause one living human to rebel against God and refuse to repent as he did, then he can find a weakness in God's Love that he can exploit to eventually be able to murder God and take His place. Satan believes that he annulled his living system that God created when he rebelled and refused to repent, but actually God recovered all the good that He had put into Lucifer's system for Him to recreate and exiled Satan to earth as a totally empty negative consciousness like those of the demons from the bottomless pit. John 8:44; Isaiah 14:12-17; Ezekiel 28:13-19. According to Ezekiel 28:18, God used His fiery wrath against evil to separate all the goodness He had put into Lucifer's system from all of his evil, absolute nothingness which God cast down to earth.
