Universalism is the belief that everyone will be saved eventually.
Jesus says in Matthew 25:
Will everyone have eternal life?
No, John 5:
I doubt it. To be on the safe side for myself, I will not rely on universalism for salvation. To be safe for others, I would not tell others that universalism is true.
Eternal life starts now while I am alive. Right now, I have the Paraclete dwelling in my spirit. I have been born of the Spirit. There is no need to wait until after the resurrection to experience eternal life.

Some will go to eternal punishment; others to eternal life.46 "these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
Will everyone have eternal life?
No, John 5:
Is universalism true?28 Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice 29and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.
