Salvation is for those who have repented of their sins.

So contrary to your former assertion you now state that there are those who deserve salvation.

Where did I say that? Salvation is available to those who repent. They still don't deserve it. Perfect justice would require damnation for all sinners. That's why salvation is called a gift, and those who receive it should be eternally grateful.

Let's see if I have this straight - no one deserves salvation, everyone deserves to be damned, except those who get saved and should be eternally grateful. Little joke there in that latter part. Your logic and your theology escape me.
