The "IQ" of this thread has nosedived. None of the Christians can agree on a single issue about the deity they believe in. The 'message' of their theology is confounded.
Well, Godschild said it right when he mentioned he didn't come here to convert people. That's clearly beyond any of these theists' capabilities.
Or are you saying he didn't neglect them but every person has multiple chances to avoid removing themselves from god's grace?
Back up a second, you're the type of Christian that believes god does not love everyone correct? So it is neglect and both parties, the sinner and god, are both to blame for the 'wastage' of soul?
Or maybe god's having a recession in Heaven and is simply trimming the fat and tightening up the belt ready for massive cuts mentioned in his "love budget" what do you think?

Just because God has foreknowledge of all history, and that history will come to pass, doesn't pose a problem for free will. The individuals in that history are free to make their decision as they see fit. Notice decision is in the singular, one decision that all are free to make, salvation. Outside of salvation it's ultimately up to God, through His will.So regarding those who wind up in Hell, they're there because god simply didn't care all that much about them? That the fate of their "souls" was neglected by the one who knew they were going to be in danger and yet that one did nothing?
