Well, Christianity IS inclusive and loving in nature. The Bible says that God so loved the WORLD(inclusive) that He sent his Son to save us: and His son is rightly called the Savior of Mankind.

People are free to opt out of this by sin, which is choosing to be cut off from God. They've un-included themselves. Nevertheless, this exclusion from salvation is by their will, not God's.

Scripture also says --- well, tagline:

13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
