The guys is dangerous, and indeed, living in the OT.

The "guy" has read both the Old and New Testament. You should try it sometime. You then might be better equipped to offer some Scripture to support your opinions rather than personally snide comments.

I only offer John 3:16. It alone is sufficient.

Other’s seem to be doing a pretty good job supporting my interpretation of things with scripture, and with St. Thomas Aquinas, actually.

God does not set us up to fail. We are unworthy, every one of us. All are called, but few respond. Those few accept the perfect sacrifice of Christ and are saved.

How we come to Christ, or don’t come to Christ, is on each individual.

I read the Bible, each day, and to my children.

To teach my children that God has not put a heart in you that will make it such that they will find Christ is beyond any abuse I can think of inflicting on them. Maybe Christ will grab you by the throat, carve out your heart of stone, and put one of flesh in them that is receptive to His redemption - there’s no basis in scripture for that.

No one is beyond redemption prior to their death. To teach otherwise is heretical.
