Pneuma & Jerwade, you got here just in the nick of time. Rose has come close to being swayed by our resident unbeliever.

Lets Hear a brief word regarding being locked in disobedience

Romans 11:32 For God has consigned all men to disobedience, so that He may have mercy on them all.

Your mind is already made.

The scriptures that God desires all to be saved have been provided to you.
Ya its funny, he hated the fundamental understanding of scripture which caused him to become an atheist and yet he turns around and defends that which he believes is all made up myths. Go figure. We have given him a different understanding of the scriptures to show God is not a failure or a schizophrenic monster, but he would rather believe that God is evil incarnate then see a God of love unfailing. or unfailing Love

How can I believe God is evil incarnate and be an atheist? See I knew you were not good at logic. You are so confused you are not even making any sense anymore.

...that he might show mercy to all. What did you tell me about the Subjunctive Rose or was that Jerwade? Don't make me expose your ignorance and wrongheadedness. Oh wait I have been doing that for about 200 posts.

Boy you guys are really hanging yourself now!

And stop pretending to understand Greek. You've already been shown what an actual Greek scholar had to say about it. Now, you are too tiny to bother with any longer.

Oh, and I invite any interested readers to refer to post #511 where I quoted Greek scholar Daniel Wallace concerning the matter.
ya and rose quoted Jonathan Mitchell.

It is like I said schalors disagree so we have to go by Gods purpose in sending Jesus which we all should know by now is to make humankind in his image and likeness, which of course cannot happen unless all have faith and believe.

This is seen by the following prepositional phrase - 'in the same manner.'

He believes that they are saved in the same manner as them. But I'll let Mike answer as well.
If he desires them to be saved in like manner, then ALL will come to that knowledge sooner or later.

And since all have not nor will believe then his desire is unmet. Only some will believe. It's not hard to understand! Again go read the details in my other posts.
what if some did not believe does that make the faithfulness of God of none effect. God forbid.

The manner in which he desires is BY FAITH! Not all will have faith. In Acts Peter is stating that he believes that this is how the Gentiles will be saved as well - in the same manner.

Our God IS the Savior of all mankind, not a potential Savior, He is the Savior; and I declare unto you and anyone else reading, every last little will will bow and confess IN/EN the Name "You are Lord" to the glory of God the Father! You do know what being in/en the Name entails, if not I will attempt as a resident "clown" to lead you to the full meaning!
amen, we have told them this many a time already they just cannot see it. Sometimes it takes the little widow woman to keep after the unjust judge before he will change his mined.

You are doing a good imitation of that woman. keep up the good work
