NEW NATURE PODCAST #4 with Ryan Rufus and Rob Rufus: Is EVERYONE going to be saved no matter what they believe? In this episode, we tackle universalism head-on and show why this popular but dangerous doctrine doesn't hold up to Scripture. We walk through the key Bible verses universalists lean on (Romans 5:18, 1 Cor 15:22, Romans 11:32, 2 Cor 5:19) and break down why justification by faith — not automatic salvation — is what the Bible actually teaches. We also get real about why so many Christians drift into these doctrines in the first place: unhealed church hurt, offense, and bitterness. If you've ever wrestled with this question or been hurt by church, this one's for you.
