So everyone knows, I am a Universalist.......
Come on,.... don't try to pull the wool over our eyes.
Fact is you're just a plain 'ol person, and there ain't no such type of person.
There are in fact only two types of persons,... those that are in Christ and those that are not.
Now, you might in your person hold to a false concept called universal reconciliation, but the reality is, your concept does not a person make.
And this is the first of your many errors.

PS - There is a way to speak about truth on these boards, by simply speaking about truth. The problem comes in when there is an attempt to usurp the headship of Christ as the very essence of truth. And the moment a person makes a declaration of "I AM" this person immediately sets themself up as one who might be attempting to usurp the headship of Christ.
Paul was very clear,.... first he was crucified with Christ,... and then he was able to say "I AM" in truth.
Or in other words, first we must be able to truthfully say "I AM NOT", in order to be able to say "I AM."
If you can't say in all honesty state "I AM NOT", then you have no ground on which to claim "I AM."
