Here is another possible way that God "destroys" His enemies:
Romans 5:10 We were God's enemies, but he made us his friends through the death of his Son.
Does not God destroy His enemies when He makes them His friend?
Oh, that men might open their minds to know God as he is revealed in his Son! {ST, January 20, 1890}

Does not God destroy His enemies when He makes them His friend? If you are trying to couple this concept with that of my previous post, you would be promoting a universal salvation. I, on the other hand, cannot find any indication from Scripture that all will be saved. Blessings, Green Cochoa.
We can receive of heaven's light only as we are willing to be emptied of self. We can discern the character of God, and accept Christ by faith, only as we consent to the bringing into captivity of every thought to the obedience of Christ. And to all who do this, the Holy Spirit is given without measure. In Christ "dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in Him." [Colossians 2:9, 10.] {GW 57.1} -- Ellen White.

If God would save everyone, would that upset you Green? It upset Jonah. It upset the prodigal's brother.

I'm sure GC would be happy for all to be saved, but that would contradict God's Word. It is better to accept an upsetting truth than a pleasant lie.

"If you are selfish, God's presence and glory will be torture to you and eventually destroy you." Is that true or false?

"God is too loving to punish anyone." True or false?

"God is too loving to punish anyone." True or false? Define punish, in this context as you understand it.

As I have repeatedly quoted: "To sin, wherever found, "our God is a consuming fire." Hebrews 12:29." {DA 107.4}
Now my question to you, why?
