The un-conditional love of God is an expectant hope that people will stop and turn from sin and be converted to His family of Children ...... As God will protect this hope to the lost of His own children heart as every person on the entire world is precious to the Lord God , and God waits for the slackers to turn to Christ and will protect His hope ....... But after a person passes on from this world then the decision to turn to Christ will also pass and either God will have them or not ...... So people who have turned to Christ then a favor of blessing of Christ is there for God purpose for all who come and receive Jesus spirit and those God has there is not respecter of persons , but people who do obey and have many Gifts of Jesus works will seen to have more favor , but that is only the works of Jesus were the favor is given , were all people will still need to keep their salvation and endure to the end favor in Jesus Works or undeveloped favor ........ See un-conditional love for all with no exception is a liberal ideas and not of truth as salvation from this world requires turning from sin then to God in love ....
Yes he does, many will say Jehovah God doesn’t. the same can be said with Jesus, his son. They both love unconditionally, if he didn’t he wouldn’t have allowed his son to die for us. So that we may live, (John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life). but that DOESN’T mean they will excuse, or accept our continually willful and abominating acts, (Ezek. 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel)?
Many Christians feel they have a first class ticket to Heaven. Even though many willfully live ways not pleasing to Jehovah God and his son Jesus. But Jesus had some words for them, (Matt. 7:22,23). True God loves us unconditionally, but we can’t say….” It doesn’t matter if we fornicate, are adulterers, homosexuals, and willful liars. Just as long as we’re Christians, we’re still go to Heaven.” as some ministers are basically trying to say. NOT only are we being fooled or fooling ourselves into believing this, because we guilty of these acts. But in a round-a-bout way, we're mocking God, wrong thing to do! ,[SIZE=3]([/SIZE]Gal. 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap).
Many make such a big thing when it comes to the conditions of God’s love, and his son. when it’s the same type of love a loving parent has to one’s child. Many love their children with everything they have. But rules are rules, and if you don’t follow them, you’re in trouble. The big difference between human parents and Jehovah God… we can't save our children’s lives. But Jehovah God gave parents and their children a chance to be saved. If we want that, we have to live a way pleasing to God, (Matt.7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven), NOT man and NOT ourselves, (Pro. 16:25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death). peace
If God's Love was UN-Conditional all would be saved.
Scripture essentially declares that God loves us unconditionally (or at least that He loves mankind in an unlimited way commensurate with His own eternal and perfect nature), ....in spite of our sin and rebellion. We can also see that God does not stop reaching out to the wicked and rebellious. In other words, we do not have to do anything to be loved by God. (Our understanding of that could be similar to our human love for our own wayward children, but, we should be careful about imposing our own notion of how WE would translate that into action .... on God).
The problem with the "God is Love" ......... "Therefore" proposition, is with the second-part ('therefore'), not the first part. In addition to being love, God is also righteous, Holy and Just; a God of Grace and Mercy. Justice, Grace and Mercy cannot live in a vacuum where no alternatives exist, lest they lose their meaning and value.
God has revealed His future plans for mankind and the world in His True Word. If folks would simply believe God's Word, instead of trying to invent and impose new "therefore's" (based on what they would do if they were God), both truth and love would be better served.
If God's Love was UN-Conditional all would be saved.
Everyone can be "saved" (not that I use that word myself) but the individual has to ask God to come into their lives. God does not come to you, you have to go to God, it's that pesky little Free Will choice that God gave every human.
