will the devil also be purified along with other sinners while there going through ( your version of Gods refining fire)? i am also gonna post the same thing in the other topic as well

You are trying top comprehend his ways by simply asking if one view is accurate or not. It's so circular. lol

I've answered this question a dozen or more times. I don't know, however God has the time and power, if it is His purpose to do so.

What would be more glorious than for God to bring all creatures to repentance and redemption???? Would you be upset if he chose to do so???

My rebuttal was very on point, and makes all kinds of logic and reasonable sense!

You tell me, are we more in line with who God really is, when we are compassionate and desiring all to be finally saved. Or when we see him as a tyrant, that will torment those that won't or cannot find the narrow path in a very short physical life? Don't say our ways are not His ways, when we are in line with what all Christianity declares is His character and nature, then turns around declares ED or annihilation. Does His mercy endure forever??? Does it Michael?

Does it make sense that folks that weren't in the ark drowned in the flood ?

Temporal judgment, no relevence to the subject, no one argues that bad things happen in this phyiscal life.

Think of it as the "blue screen of death" and God needed to do a reboot.

terrible analogy, Noah preached to them for almost a 100 years, and everyone thought he was a quack.

infact its very interesting that in the book of enoch. It was the giants the nephile or whatever they were called was having these visions of the world getting submerged.

Enoch went to them and interpreted the visions for them to understand the comming judgment.

the the book of enoch isnt in the bible its a very old story which was passed down through the ages. Its missing parts and peices, but that part stood out.

God gave the world much time to join Noah, he has Given this world almost 2k years to Join Jesus.

But Jesus is the ark in the new covenant. and one day That grace will be shut off and the judgment will come, just like a flood to those who dont believe.

as the bible declares it will over take them like a thief in the night
