“No such fracture exists with God hating x number of people.”

Oh “yes it do”!

“For God so loved THE WORLD that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

“The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands ALL PEOPLE everywhere to repent, “

(Incidentally, my little son sitting here has told me to tell you to check on it in the Bible and you will find out that God loves everyone and He wants them to be saved.)

Oh no it don't.

“For God so loved THE WORLD" does not say For God so loved everyone in the world, now does it? Rather is means there are those from every tongue tribe and nation.

"but now he commands ALL PEOPLE everywhere to repent"

And those who do will be saved. Those who don't, well, we know how that will turn out.

the Bible and you will find out that God loves everyone and He wants them to be saved

All men or all men whom He chooses? If He want all men to be saved, why dis he harden the heart of Pharaoh? Why does He harden those who he desires? If you hold that he wants all to be saved and yet he hardens hearts and creates some to be vessels of wrath, well, you have fractured Scripture.

Best regards to your son! 8-)
