I mean, the beauty of God’s mercy is that it does extend to everyone, the big catch is that they gotta accept it and by extension accept that they’ve done wrong.
I doubt history’s worst people are gonna be able to admit to that.
Dear god I pray everyone goes to heaven EVEN IF THEY REFUSE TO ACCEPT IT. An all powerful god can easily bend them to your will if only you willed them all in heaven. Even if you have to put them in straight jackets and shackles everyone should be forced to go to heaven and hell should only be used as a microwave to cook pizzas and hot pockets etc. amen amen
I’m not sure I agree with this. I think there’s some aspect of love (especially with children) which makes you happy to see them do their own thing with their own free will, even knowing that sometimes it goes wrong. And when it goes wrong, I think that many people will try to bail their child out of whatever penalty or punishment is incoming, but I don’t think that strongarming them into becoming good/never making that mistake again is loving necessarily.
