Ask of Me, and I shall give Thee the heathen for Thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for Thy possession (Psalm 2:8).
We find by reference to the language of the Psalmist that Jesus, as a moral ruler, is in possession of all things or all men.
The Father loveth the Son and hath given all things into His hand (John 3: 35).
Now Jesus positively declares,
All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me; and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out (John 6:37).
How many had the Father given him? ALL.
Then ALL will finally come to Christ.
Jesus continues in the following verses,
For I came down from heaven not to do Mine own will but the will of Him that sent Me. And this is the Father’s will which hath sent Me, that of all which He hath given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day (:38-40).
Here then we see, first, Christ in possession of all men. Second, all are to come to Him. Third, He will lose none which God hath given Him; but, fourth, will raise them up at the last day. And what is all this but Universalism?
