The Unitarian Universalist cult is the result of the joining of the Unitarian religion with the Universalists. The Unitarians got their start in the sixteenth century. At that time, in central Europe, a group of humanists reviewed the Bible. Finding no mention of the word

I believe one reason that increasing numbers of Christians seem to be embracing universalism is because they themselves are not living as they should. They call themselves Christians but live nowhere near how they should. They know this. They then see others who are not Christians living basically the same life that they are. They reason, rightly, that God would not send one person to hell, but then send them to heaven when they are both living the same way. Instead, what they should be doing is confronting their own sin and worldliness. But that seems to hard. It is easier to just lower the standards so that basically everybody gets in.

In Christ's Love

My best friend is a Unitarian Universalist and I am ok with whatever he chooses to believe. I do not believe he is going to hell, I am actually very interested in their beliefs. You can be a Christian and a Universalist, its basically bonding all religions in the hopes of a peaceful world. You are absolutely arrogant if you cant cope with what other people choose to believe.

Hello Chazy:

If you know JESUS CHRIST as your SAVIOUR, this may help you gain a better understanding of your friend's beliefs:

Wisdom, one small problem with that article...

If theres one thing I always try to do, its look at things from an un-biased opinion. Your article is written by Christian Ministries, so obviously you are dealing with some biased issues there. You guys make them seem like a disease that is taking over the world and destroying everything in its path. Ouch.

Thank you for responding, however, the choice of what one chooses to believe, or not to believe is up to the individual. A personal note....I am very bias when it comes to lining up the issues of saving a life from eternal separation from the CREATOR of all things.

Whether the article gets accepted by a person really isn't the issue. No...instead it is if you as a person believe who JESUS CHRIST is, and if you accept HIS free gift of salvation. (Romans 10:9-10)

I often tell people that if they never set foot in a church or join a particular denomination it doesn't relieve them of the responsibility of individually choosing to believe/not believe GOD's Word for themselves. WE all come to that crossroad. You are there now.

We will ALL face JESUS CHRIST as our SAVIOUR or JUDGE (Hebrews 9:27). The choice is not only ours as to how we do, but if we already profess/claim to know HIM as our SAVIOUR we have a command to study HIS Word (2 Timothy 2:15) in order to discern false doctrine.

All I have to say is that my friend goes to church every sunday, he goes on street runs giving food to the homeless, he helps in food drives, attends youth group, helps build houses in third world countries, and basically volunteers for anything and everything he can help with. All I have done this entire year was volunteered for 14 hours straight at a cancer fundraising event... And my friend was right next to me volunteering as well. So maybe what im trying to say is he is a much better person/Universalist than I am person/Christian. And thats implying that my beliefs are Christian. As one of my favourite quotes says "Dont judge what you dont understand".

This comes back to the "why did Jesus preach to the spirits in prison(hell)" discussion. Is it possible that there is salvation for people that repent in the hereafter? You know that the word translated "forever" when it talks about the judgements on the wicked actually meant "an age" or "ages". An age or ages is not forever.
