Yes every promise in the Bible IS about Jesus and the "ransom". In that they all relate to it and none of the promises in the bible would be possible without it. (And Adam and Eve were literal people because Jesus referred to them as such)

Ah, so that proves it? I doubt Jesus was infallible. We both believe he was not God. He was a man of his times and culture. A righteous man(by most accounts),a spiritual man, rabbi, preacher, prophet, but a man just the same.
Jesus was not a scientist nor was he an historian.
Please demonstrate that ALL the promises are about Jesus and dependent on "the ransom". See, here is where you go beyond your protestation that these are your
beliefs. Now in this case and others, you are stating that the "ransom" and other things are
facts.
No, it is not against the rules to state your beliefs, or to have them challenged. And preaching is a borderline offense, a fine line at times. In cases such as this, it is often handled by debate. Some reported preaching infractions are cleared by the team with the recommendation that they be handled by debate. But not all...
And regarding your group's attempt to "bar the door" to any but folks who believe like you do... when I say "in your imagination" that is my way of stating that your beliefs do not affect, nor do they limit God's expansive mercy, and Him being merciful to whomever He wants to.
In the end, I believe God will save whom he chooses to save, as He alone knows the individual's heart. Shouldn't we all have a bit of humility when proclaiming who is saved and who is "lost"? Better still, shouldn't we all avoid such proclamations in the first place?
