Do you believe the Bible is the word of God? If so why do you say Jesus wants some people damned when the Bible clearly says that He is not willing that any should perish?
Jesis said it, not me.
Originally posted by @eladarSeriously, you need to stop worshipping the printed text and start filling your heart with Jesus Christ. You don't even know what being a Christian even means. You need to get to know him, and stop twisting what he has said, only to attempt to justify your own behavior. Because you're not exalting yourself when you do that, you're just bringing him down to your level.

How do you mean, eladar? There is only one way to salvation, and this is your way?
Then it is rather empty up there, don't you think?
Those who ignore it do so at the risk of eternal damnation.

Matthew 13
1 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 13 This is why I speak ...[text shortened]... to understand with their hearts and turn. Why? Then he'd have to heal them and they'd be saved.

By exposing false teachers who would claim that Jesus wants every person to be saved.
" ... our Savior God, Who desires all men to be saved and to come to the full knowledge of the truth." (1 Timothy 2:3b,4)
Is then First Timothy an epistle containing a false teaching ?
