Deuteronomy 30 18 I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess. 19 This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live 20 and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the LORD is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
Joshua 24:15 Joshua 24 Joshua 24:14-16 But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."
Isaiah 56 3 Let no foreigner who has bound himself to the LORD say, "The LORD will surely exclude me from his people." And let not any eunuch complain, "I am only a dry tree." 4 For this is what the LORD says: "To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths, who choose what pleases me and hold fast to my covenant-- 5 to them I will give within my temple and its walls a memorial and a name better than sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name that will not be cut off.
If our Salvation ,as you point out, is solely out of love for His creation..and He is not willing that any should perish..then why does He not choose to save all? Does he love some more than others?
He is God after all, and He would know how much grace each needed and the circumstances necessary for every man to seek Him. Why would He allow some ,that would seek Him with more of His grace perish?
Why did He even put the tree in the garden?
You gave scriptures on choice and I do not deny there is choice..I address why we choose the way we do...would you answer my question? Please?? :>))
