Here is an interesting article that compares some of the various theological arguments, for and against: Universalism, Calvinism and Arminianism with regards to the scope of Salvation:

The Bibliography (given at the end) is actually pretty good for further reading and contemplation of the subject matter.

That isn't so good news But then again, Christ said many wouldn't.
God having known that ahead of time would make it impossible for anyone to refuse.. why limit God in that he can't save people without their permission?

sciotamicks, you and Fundamentalist are the ones not believing the good news that Christ ransomed all mankind and will directly impact all the humans Adam impacted in Romans 5:18,19.

It is not a matter of, "will they believe or not" but "will Christ really justify all mankind's lives?" and "will Christ make all mankind righteous?"
"Will God save all mankind due to Christ ransoming them?" "Will God be All in all?" or "will God be All in some?"

Of course not all will believe FOR EONIAN LIFE or LIFE AGE-DURING in this lifetime. God only needs just so many for His work in the oncoming ages. The rest will either be in the second death awaiting the resurrection out of that death or will be involved in God's final ages.

Maybe if you and Fundamentalist would start believing the good news you will be saved from your harmful theology.
