Were all the Jews promised salvation? How did salvation come to them? In the same way it comes to us, by believing in the promise of the Messiah, whether they were Jewish or not.

Then you are in direct opposition to what the verse says: "And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience",..they knew they were as guilty as the woman was.

How about we add a little context to these verses: 34 “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.” 35 Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty. 36 But as I told you, you have seen me and still...

Let me ask you this...do you believe you are one of the chosen? Why? If God created some for damnation why would you think you aren't one of those?

Because few seek, not because God isn't willing to save them. God desires all to be saved. 1Timothy 2:4

I see it a bit differently. I'm not sure that God always has to have someone outside himself to love in order to be Love. His attributes are what they are regardless. And since the Son, and Holy Spirit are all one, there was no one outside himself to love at one time ( if time even has any...

Belief is faith.

Yes, God could have converted everyone before they were born too. But then there would be no choice, and we would only worship him because there's no other options. Is that true worship?

Will God save you if you don't believe or confess? Yes or no? Quit diverting.

Lol, so you just tried to have your cake and eat it too. Yes, conviction shows us we are guilty and it's up to us whether we respond or not. I never said they all convert. I said all are convicted. Again, why would God bother convicting people who he never offers salvation to? In your scheme of...

No, not right. There's definitely judgement for what you believe or don't believe. Read your Bible, for goodness sake.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the topic.

You misunderstand what Jesus is saying and we've already covered this numerous times In John 8:44 He said that they were of the father the devil, and therefore lived to do the lusts of the devil. In the same way he who is of God does the will of God, and hears the words of God. Now, apparently...

Yes, because all men are convicted of sin by the father. . John 8:8 “And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.” Note, they did not repent, as...

Ok I agree but I don't agree. No, Jesus isn't a created being, and we know this for lots of reasons, one being that we are told Jesus created all things. But creating new angels or people doesn't mean God changes. God desiring to love someone new doesn't mean he suddenly started loving. I'm not...

Lol, I literally say if you do as it says in the verse to do you will receive eternal life and you say I'm misusing the verse. Maybe you need to quit complicating what God has made simple.

Ok, I guess I don't understand the question. What the passage says is the cross is foolishness to those who are not being saved. That pretty self-explanatory. A person under conviction may still mock the message, but in his heart there's a glimmer of "maybe this is truth." which grows stronger...

You didn't answer, you just danced around the question. Will God save you if you don't believe and confess, yes or no?

I see no mistake. My eyes are wide open. And this is just one out of scads of verses that indicate Christ died for all. Unless he died for all, why would all be convicted? Can you be convicted of a sin that you had no choice to escape? If some are born damned, what is the point of sending...

Absolutely not. Christ died once for all. For indeed Christ died for sins once for all, the Just and Righteous for the unjust and unrighteous [the Innocent for the guilty] so that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit; 1 Peter 3:18...
