You could have found Scriptures supporting my contention . . . if you’d cared to.

How could I have found Scripture to support your contention if your contention is wrong? Surely if you were correct you could have provided all the Scripture you needed. But the fact is it's not there.

The fact is that God hates all men who are in rebellion against Him, as the Scripture which I quoted plainly teaches. But He also loves His elect in Jesus Christ. “Jacob have I loved but Esau have I hated.” His electing love is unexplainable other than it brings glory to Him.

Some sentimental nonsense about God loving all men is not biblical.

Maybe I’ll bother to look such up by and by.

But I can believe that the Calvinist perspective would have a big investment in focusing on those Scriptures mentioning God’s hatred of some humans.
