RE: [TruthTalk] The place of creeds in relation to truth

Lance, not ALL who are created by God belong to Him.  It is our free-will choice, as He is not a puppeteer: 2 Tim 2:   <SUP id=en-NASB-29847>19Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, " The Lord knows those who are His," and, " Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to abstain from wickedness."       <SUP id=en-NASB-29848>20Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also vessels of wood and of earthenware, and some to honor and some to dishonor.       <SUP id=en-NASB-29849>21Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work. Yes.   Universalism verses Universality. JD   John, please elaborate (again) on what you see as the difference.  I still can’t see much.  Izzy
