Actually, it is true that God loves all . . . even those who reject Him.

Dismissive rejection of God’s Promises to His Buddy Abraham is a shocking denial of Biblical truth, to me.

God’s Love won’t insure folks Salvation apart from their Acceptance of Christ etc.

God has clearly, in Scripture, scheduled at least the remnant of Blood Israel’s acceptance of their true Messiah.

God is not such a wimpy, incompetent, poor planning God to have promised Abraham only to flub it all and fail to be able to fulfill His promises to the letter and last detail, as Christ indicated about fulfillment of the last tiniest punctuation mark of Scripture.

Blood Israel is a stark and eternal object lesson for mankind and for all Creation. And God it not at all finished with that object lesson.

I do suspect that He notices, however, those rejecting the Biblical prophecies and promises related to Blood Israel.

"The Lord is in His holy temple, The Lord's throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, His eyelids test the sons of men. 5 The Lord tests the righteous, But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates. 6 Upon the wicked He will rain coals; Fire and brimstone and a burning wind Shall be the portion of their cup. 7 For the Lord is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright." (Psalm 11:4-7)

"These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: 17 A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, 18 A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, 19 A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren." (Prov. 6:16-19)

"As it is written, 'Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.'" (Rom. 9:13)

Is that what happened to the Egyptians who drowned in the Red Sea? Or the Baal prophets that Elijah hacked to bits? Or the people Christ said they were sons of the devil? Or what about the horrors that will come on judgment day? It is a humanistic notion that God love all. God hate sin. Man is sinful. It's rather simple logic. The only difference in this equation is that God makes an effort to find fellowship with us.

No one is denying God's promise to Abraham. What is being argued is whether that promise has been fulfilled. I say it was fulfilled with Christ.
