I believe that your Dad had a great deal more wisdom that what you have accredited to him. Look at his work. It is the product of the Word that he preached...a product that will continue to yield fruit for a thousand years if the Lord should tarry that long. THAT, is evidence of great wisdom and understanding.

App, I'm not a Univeralist. Heck, I don't know what I am besides a Follower of Christ. But, according to your version of what it takes to obtain citizenship in heaven and a "get-out-of-hell-free" card, there are VERY few people in this history of the world that are actually escaping hell.
Every year, 57 million people die and of those, maybe just a few hundred...or let's stretch it out to a few thousand....have met the qualifications of the Pentecostal version of the new birth. But let's really, really stretch the number and say that, every year, 50,000 people die that have met the
John 3,
Acts 2 version of the New Birth.
A quick calculation shows us that .0008771% of our world's population is going to heaven, and 99.9991339% of the world is going to hell.
Do you really believe that God, foreknowing this from the foundation of the world, created man, in His own image, just to eternally burn nearly all of them? That seems to paint a picture of a VERY cruel God.
