i look at my thoughts, my deeds, and i am glad that His grace is sufficient no matter what i have done.
i fall under the category of more of the things on your list, but His love covers a multitude of sins.
by the way, i would never discredit something because it is old testament, i agree with you that it is totally valid.
and im not saying He wont damn people to hell because He will, i am just saying it is not His will that any perish, God is love. He came to save the world first, it is not our job to judge it

God doesn't love everybody:
Quote:
Proverbs 6
[16] These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
[17] A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
[18] An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
[19] A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

And don't give me any "He hates the sin, not the sinner" crap...
Quote:
Matthew 13
[38] The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
[39] The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
[40] As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
[41] The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
[42] And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
