After all, if he is the savior of all men, he died in vain since most reject him.

By the way, if your theory were true, then those who reject Him may very well be correct in doing so since He would reject them regardless of what was in their hearts.

A simple reading of the tale of the Canaanite women shows just how wrong all of this is. Take the Bible as a complete work, not just filler in between the passages you underline, and you'll discover there is salvation for all who would follow Him.

Guess we'll have to wait until the Final Judgement to see if anyone shows up who isn't on your list.

If you read the totality of Scripture, you will realize my view is correct. Free willers only can show 2 or 3 passages to support their point....I have tons for mine. God has chosen an elect people who will come to faith in Christ. You seem to think that there are people who would choose God if given the choice. Frankly, this is not true. Unless God chose me, I would have refused to come. This is the same with every Christian. If God just left it up to free will, everyone would still be living in sin and loving the world.
