Do you believe that god has the power to save? Do you believe that everyone is saved?
Correct; everyone has been offered salvation. And it is inaccurate, irrespective of moral opinions, to say that a person refusing salvation is the same as God failing to save them.
As a former EMT my abilities as a medical provider were limited by consent. A patient has the right to refuse care, partially or in its entirety, even if it results in death or injury. It doesn't matter that I had both the training and equipment to help someone; to provide care when a person has refused it is a criminal offense. I think it is both unfortunate and inaccurate to say that a medical provider has killed someone, or failed to help them, when their services are being refused.
