Ah, then we see the concept of "God's children" very differently. In the above, I would say that the one child God feeds IS His child, but the other 4 are not His children. Out of the five, God loves the one child who is truly His. (The other children are not His responsibility.) In fact, He loves her so much that He will allow nothing to prevent her salvation, not even her own wickedness. That is true love. If she really was His child, and He allowed her to make foolish decisions to her doom, then that would mean to me that He really did not love her. God accepts the "responsibility" of Fatherhood for those who actually are His children, not everybody.
John 1:12-13 : 12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God — 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
"Ah, then we see the concept of "God's children" very differently."
Sadly, it appears we do. It seems we don't simply worship differently from you, we worship a different God.
Yes we do.In the above, I would say that the one child God feeds IS His child, but the other 4 are not His children.
Wow, and yet He created them! That's like saying God has 'illegitimate' children that He wants nothing to do with! (I know that's what the Reformed believe)
Who gave them life?

Why not? No one but God created them. No one but God gave them life. And now he doesn't want them? What message does that send?

And HE decided whop will be His and who won't, correct?
The other children are not His responsibility
He created them!

All mankind are His creation. Man was made in His image and Likeness.
