Is for all men to be saved. Because God is Love and loving He does not force His love on anyone but gives them a choice to love in return and repent of their sins. God does not force His love on them and violate mans willing choice to love in return nor coerce man. Its a real loving act of God the way He created man in his image with the ability to love. God is Love as we see below.

Now go and strike Amalek and completely destroy everything that he has, and do not spare him; but put to death both man and woman, child and infant ... 1 Sam 15:3

How was God loving the Amalekite men, women, children and infants?

start your own thread. Everything God does is loving, just, holy, good, righteous etc.......

you should believe that I have no idea why you reject God is Love.

you should take that up with your Creator, not me.

maybe you could read the book of Job today and find out the answer to your question.

hope this helps !!!

If you don't know, just admit you don't know.

I ask again, how was God loving the Amalekite men, women, children, and infants when ordered Saul to utterly destroy them?

They all had a chance to defect and join Israel, none would be denied that ,and they saw the miracles.

But there's some implications behind your questions.

You would admit that if God let you go to hell God would still be just, correct?

But now you will say that a just God would not necessarily be loving, as if justice and love were competing with each other.

God didn't just love at the Cross, he went the extra mile of mercy, and loved more than he was obligated to.

I could end up and hell and God could still love me perfectly—those are not incompatible truths.

You have some kind of selfish love that demands you never suffer.

Even if He saved me, and condemned my children, and grandchildren to hell, God IS ALWAYS JUST. He is NEVER UNJUST.

He is all of His attributes, in all of their fullness, all of the time.

The only God -- the God of the Bible -- is all of His attributes, in all of their fullness, all of the time.

Ah. How do you know that about my love?

Is it because you asked me the question, and that was my answer?
