I don't think any of us can comprehend how much he truly loves us. . Over the last two days from some of the posts I'm reading I'm supposed to accept that this wonderful being is actually a boogy man? He's someone who destroys half? (, yall got a % yet?) of what he makes on a whim, no he plans to destroy before he even creates and now he has no special provisions for the ones that aren't able to determine between good and evil?
I don't think so.

Cindy did God create men that He knew by His foreknowledge would never repent and believe. Did God not create them specifically for hell?

What is it in man that God "owes " them a chance" .Is God mans debtor?

God owes us nothing and we all need to on our knees in gratitude. It's just a free will thing. Did he want mind control or for His children to love Him and come to him wiilingly. It takes a very strong and secure person to let go knowing that he will have loses and that people will make mistakes with growth. It would have been much easier with predetermination but I don't see this in scripture before salvation. Afterwards I'm right there in agreement with you.

Is God loving? Is God just?

Where is the justice and love in creating a being specifically for hell?
