Hold that rescue's a gift from God, granted through faith in Christ alone. I believe in God's kingship and predestination.

About 1 Timothy 2:4, my interpretation grasps it as expressing God’s general will, rather than a guarantee of universal rescue. God's grace is specific in its application through faith in Christ

And isn't god's will everything? Do you claim to know his will better than he does? It says they are to be saved first, and only then will they receive knowledge. You can't alter that to suit your desires. God is greater than you, what he wants is paramount. What you want doesn't come into it.

Oh and Jae. "Whether you are a bot or not a reply I got."

Whilst you believe that heaven is reserved only for those who accept god's grace, it is important to recognize that interpretations of Scripture vary widely. Some Christian traditions argue that god's love and grace are all-encompassing and that all souls will be reconciled with God, regardless of their faith during their lifetime.
Doesn't it say in 1 Timothy 2:4 that god desires all people to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth, after that? That suggests that your gods grace extends beyond the limits of your understanding and religious boundaries. the message of jesus in this instant is redemption for all. And not simply people like you. A broader view that encourages inclusivity and compassion, which your above post lacks.

Some essences have been let loose ... the source of demons, and other such pained creature trying to escape the waste of life ... that's prodigal in an arc haic meaning that could be hacked or OHC'd in the marketplace ... for current position! This is Faust'd upon us by those that claim to have learned everything from one book ... that the book says has somewhat stacked odds ... some illumination said to have been buried in outlander tomes ...

Faust is said to be a lucky probe (trident) although many powers will attempt to stop us from projecting our nature ... personality develops in some degrades in other due to essential corruption ... it is of the essence of the alternate ... the opposed. Some just let it flow because we were disposed to observe only ... in the light of potential you could be darkened by contamination by brute and fresh forcing's ... Mephistopheles . me feast of feelings ... s'pathe's? Route of hazy nature ... like fog in the veil ... emotions do that ... while that stranger gives clarity on the sacrifice of sol ... a grand myth!

Remand's me of Schrodinger's item of concern ... "what's in the k'tye?" Kate is that ewe? ... Hard to tell from where where at ... inna terrible state of chaos ... you could write a lot of melancholy matter sade songs?

Many Christians share your views and many don't. The God you believe in seems like a rather petty character to me.

No two people share exactly the same faith. However, I believe there are some things every true Christian holds to be true. They include things like the Trinity, the deity of Christ, salvation by faith alone, the resurrection, and some others

This is a faith statement on your part Brother @Jae and you are free to believe it, of course.

IMHO it is not up to any of us to decide what "every true Christian" must believe.

Oh, I agree with you, it isn't up to any of us. Things are made clear enough in the Bible, the final authority on all things related to Christian faith and practice
 
Even Trump had a belief ... that he should corrupt a social system that didn't suit his all controlling desires!

Then contrary to belief ... reaction occurred subtly! It destroyed the foundations ... then it all come down ... the descent of not knowing ... a general unknowing ... sometimes declared as forgetting ... so it goes!

May I point out this is another faith statement on your part?

Its beyond most of us, but a small portion will debate virtue!

Now if God is everything in "toto" (tous, or integral) can you imagine how folk will compartmentalize ide in differing shades ... abstract is like a black 'ole item where things are trashed ... prodigal/waste! Like dropping light matter onto the earth ... much is reflected as it bounces off into the surroundings ... the atmosphere assists the warping ... E Gad's ...

As in alternate strings of thought and disliked thread ... expect exceptions and elimination until what we hold as intelligence is defeated by desires ... to learn of nothing! Nothing has been said to be a metaphor of emotion ... when you lose it all ...

Knowing much of the stuff held by determinates ... leaves one distraught and indeterminate regarding the wisdom of Mort ... that feature among us!
Dead lie ...
 
What is it like for demanding an anchor to be set free and fancy ... like Luce 'n abstract without worry, concern, bother or that Jenny who gave a tongue lashing the the secular lord .. al ichi 'n? Some times Xi 'nature ... and few know that dark persona rising from the swale ...

I do have some unidentified people of color buried in by sacred grounds ... ci M'n Aryans ... mysterious? You bet ... the line is cast ... chez a hard cat ... but nothing a brau beating by a mule won't cure ...
 
Does the veil dividing Heaven and Hell reside in the abstract side of the mined ... that has been bored out by promises provided by authorities in different fields of endeavor that haven't been filled ... thus large deficiencies sometimes described as wiggle space ... as politicians, BS and corporate leaders squirm!

Edic t 've worms ...
