Soory, I might have made a wrong assumption that you were a Christian. If so, the "word" was not available ( according to traditional theory), so a correct choice could not have been made.

I am a Christian, and consciously choosing to believe in Christ is not necessary for salvation (although consciously choosing to disbelieve in Christ is sufficient for damnation).

"Are you saying that it would be impossible for God to do that ?

I suspect so; can you argue the contrary?"

You appear to have a very different concept of God then an all-powerfull being, normally God is not given any limitations.

You need to broaden your knowledge of Christianity; I recommend C. S. Lewis' Mere Christianity as a start.

"I am a Christian, and consciously choosing to believe in Christ is not necessary for salvation (although consciously choosing to disbelieve in Christ is sufficient for damnation). "

Curious, how does that tally with -
“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me.” John 14:6-7"

"You need to broaden your knowledge..."

No I don't think so, if C.S. convinced you that God was not all-powerfull, the entire concept changes.
