Isn’t that inconsistent with the Reformed belief that only some get God’s unconditional love?

At what point do you inform them of the situation and status and inevitable outcome of the non elect? And, depending on the extent (Calvinist versus hyper Calvinist), when do you inform them that God hates (Reformed version of the Jacob and Esau story) those who will go to hell?

See post 7,990.

There really is no such thing as a "hyper-Calvinst." It's a term of derision meant to tarnish the doctrines of grace.

I don't have to inform my children of the reprobates' unhappy circumstance which they bring upon themselves. Anyone can see that Godless people are unhappy people.

Does your Bible say God hated Esau? Does your Bible include Romans 8 & 9?
