False analogy, as souls are not forgiven before repentance and faith, but are enemies of God in need of salvation. Yes, God loves them but is not crazy about their condition, and thus He convicts them of sin and their need for salvation on His expense and credit. Read sermons in Acts 2, 10, 13.
Jesus said he came not to judge
Out of context. That refers to coming as the judge, which Peter and Paul warned souls of in persuading them to repent, while Jesus manifested judged souls in declaring they were sinners, (Mt. 23) and thus He said that the world hateth me, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil. (John 7:7)
False analogy, as souls are not forgiven before repentance and faith,
***While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

***Exactly. He does it. We don’t have to.
Jesus said he came not to judge — Out of context
***The context is Jesus talking to Nicodemus, right after saying that he needed to be born again and the famous “For God so loved the world”... In that passage He says
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of Gods one and only Son.
***See, they’re condemned already. And notice that Jesus doesn’t focus on telling Nicodemus about his sins. Again, He focuses on love.
