Confessions of a Quirky Christian Artist

I made these diagrams to help with any confusion. [EDIT - How to tell that you've communicated poorly: someone chastises you for being for advocating a viewpoint that you've been working against for years. (see comment below) Being a Universalist, I'm constantly being attacked by orthodox Christians for be a Unitarian. I'm not trying to be disrespectful here. Just pointing out that there is a fundamental difference between the two. Christ being the focal point is the difference. Christian Universalism denies any other "path" to God save for Jesus. Unitarians either don't believe in salvation or define it quite differently than Christianity does. Orthodox Christianity puts everyone who believes incorrectly in an eternal hell. Christian Universalism defines hell as God's purifying work/wrath/love that pretty much everyone is going to go through. Unitarians typically find the whole notion of hell distasteful. Oh, and I chose to represent God wit...

Here are a two examples: Mat 4:24 So his fame spread throughout all Syria, and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted with various diseases and pains, those oppressed by demons, epileptics, and paralytics, and he healed them. (I don't think every sick person in the entire province of Syria was brought to Jesus.) Mat 9:35 And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. (I'm assuming the writer meant all the cities and villages in the area, not all the cities and villages in the entire world.) This is brought up when rebutting the universalist take on many of Paul's writings that seem to plainly state that all will be saved. I've seen these verses go through many a theological chop-shop and come out looking radically different afterwards. But ultimately it comes down to 2 simple choices. 'All', or 'some'. I love this.....
