I like thinking that all are drawn to be saved.
I don't concern myself with judging who will or won't be.



Lovely

Yes there does seem to be a lot of 'Judgement '.

Does that negate what was the purpose of the Law?

Does that negate why Jesus came as the Messiah?

Does that negate the main teachings of the New Testament?

those who don't want to be save, are the ones who do NOT want to follow in Jesus steps. or do his Father, Jehovah God's will. if ALL would be saved, that would mean that NO ONE ever went against Jehovah God. commonsense would show that there are even straight out ,devil worshippers. NOT to say that those who does not make an actual worship to satan. are not worshipping satan in a round-a-bout way. because false religion, the governments and people who live as they please. are all following satan course. so it's totally true that MANY will NOT be saved.

Jesus even showed that at ,(Rev. 6:14-17 Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place. And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains. and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”). peace

no doubt! Jehovah words shows this throughout the Bible. MANY think, we can just want it or believe, and that's all it takes. but even satan and his weak-butt followers believed. yet they will still be destroyed.

Why would anybody actually believe that those who are doing really bad things NOW would be allowed into a paradise?

Only those who change their ways and who do what they are suppose to be doing should be allowed, would you not agree?

All will be redeemed regardless of what scriptures written by Humans say.
The old testament is so full of violence and hatred towards others it proves Humans wrote it to try to justify their abhorrent behaviour....

What if you live in a part of the world that has never heard of Jesus and Jehovah, but live as Jesus did?

If you can't answer your own questions I suggest to look inside not outside ( scriptures ) there lies all your answers

The Kingdom of God is within....
