I wish you the best, but this is a futile argument, so I kindly thank you for the well intention help.But to answer your question as to where God promised that all will come to repentance? Instead of me leaving you a link, just Google universalism. You read right through one in the verse you used.
In His Love, Chas.
I do not expect those not in the spirit to understand what I wrote. Some in flesh might figure it out through intelligence, but then reject it.

The key is in I Corinthians 15.50 which states that "... flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God..." This means that the kingdom of God is 100%, completely and totally spiritual. There are no physical doors, no physical streets pave with gold, no physical rituals by which we can enter. If Christ came in this spiritual kingdom, those still in the flesh would not see it.

I don't believe it is a futile argument at all as it is based on truth.

I have already looked into universalism. I have no urge to do it again. It is plain, even in the flesh, that it is false. Not all men have come to repentance, because narrow is the way and few there be that find it.
