Obviously, God has chosen to keep this hell-bent murderer alive to the present day. Our Savior is not through with him. “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners” (Mark 2:17). God is certainly still calling him.

In fact, Jesus died for James Holmes. He died for him, and we don't even pray for him? We've been told to love and pray for sinners, even to love enemies.

"Have this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus." Philippians 2:5.

Not necessarily. If we were kept alive until we accepted Christ, then some people would be hundreds of years old. Was Hitler kept alive until he repented? We have our life and it is over when it is over. That is no indication of whether God was through with us or not.

His work on the cross is sufficient for all, but efficient for the elect. Holmes chose Satan with his prison conversion to islam. This fallen world has unrepentant evil too.
