Be honest here in what you think. Does God desire to save all mankind? All people, including Hitler, Stalin, Sadam Hussein, etc? ie. Does God desire to save Hitler?
Again, only 2 choices: Yes or No. If you think the answer should be "Yes, but...." or "No, but..." then you can add a comment explaining it.
If you want to add a comment explaining what you base your answer on (ie. scripture, personal opinion, philosophy, etc.) that would also be appreciated.
He desires all to be saved because He loves us whether good, bad or indifferent. We are His children. No Father would want any left behind. It's our own free will choice if we do not desire God although He will still love us even if we choose to go against Him.
It will not be an easy road for we all must reap what we sow and I believe we truly will. In the end though there will be no suffering and the dark souls will find the light.
This is a clear battle between God's will vs. man's will, right? I believe, then, that we focus on which of the two stands in light of scripture - and this is the result of such study:
(1)First, His will by some to bless and save others; by a first-born seed, "the first born from the dead," (Col. i. 18.) to save and bless the later-born
(2) His will therefore to work out the redemption of the lost by successive ages or dispensations, or, to use the language of St. Paul, "according to the purpose of the ages:" (Eph 3:11.)and
(3) Lastly, His will (thus meeting the nature of our fall,) to make death, judgment, and destruction, the means and way to life, acquittal, and salvation; in other words, "through death to destroy him that has the power of death, that is the devil, and to deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage." (Heb 2:14.)
God is God - this is the basis of our faith, and our very life. We must see Him as He is.
I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known Me:
That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside Me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. (Isa 45:5-6)
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.
I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. (Isa 45:22-23)
All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and He doeth according to His will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay His hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? (Dan 4:35)
Yes he loves us all and he wants every person to be saved, he can clean then up and give everybody his spirit to help them, he calls the lost people slackers, anything else would hinder his hope for everyperson to be saved..... The Great Commission of Reconciliation were the gifts of Holy Spirit are and all are called to work in that direction one way or the other were ever the lead of the Lord gives us depending on the way the Lord knows us which gifts are good for each believer..... Yes Jesus could have cleaned hitler if he would have converted to the the true ways of the Lord God,,,, and not the false way of that third reich crap that deceived him in those days
