God hates the sinner. He loves the PENITENT sinner. The latter will be saved the former will not. I actually had an imbecile state that God loved the souls in hell. What a perversion of the word love.

Well, He sent Christ before we had the penitent sinner. Or maybe n ot. There have always been those that wanted be be closer to God and to please Him.

However, whether to go to hell or not is the choice of said sinner. God just gives him what he wanted. ‘Course he probably won’t be wnating it when the time comes.

In any event, despite some quibbling over terms, I think we both have the essence of what is going to happen.

In the meantime, we aren’t God, and we are allowed to love the sinner and hate the sin.
