“I cannot find any place in Scripture where God does not allow someone who desires to come to Him, to come to Him. To believe such sounds very much like God is a preferer of persons and prejudiced like the rest of humanity. But God’s ways are not like our ways, they are superior in reason and in divine compassion.”
Joh 6:44 No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day.
Joh 6:65 And he said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father.”
Now TL, does God ‘draw’ every single person, yes or no? Does God the Father ‘grant’ everyone to come to Jesus, yes or no? If yes, show me one verse that saids that. If no, well, i guess you see your dilemma and your own wrong percieved notions about God.
Did God choose Israel above all the other nations of the world? Did he choose Jacob over Esau? Did he choose Isaac over Ishmael? Does God have mercy on whom he wills, and harden whom he wills?
