God will search for us until we are found. That’s biblical. In several places.

God does not force those who do not want to be found. That is also biblical. To these he says depart from me you who work sin, I never knew you.

I have every hope that God’s boundless love will outlast our stubbornness.

Many will choose not to. The best way is to believe God's Word and follow it. Those who do not JESUS will say depart from my you who work sin I never knew you.

Your only repeating yourself God does not force those who reject his Word in order to live a life of sin *HEBREWS 10:26-39

So, you believe that human stubbornness is stronger than God’s love for us? How long will God wait for us to come around? How long? The Shepherd searches UNTIL the sheep is found. The father waits UNTIL the prodigal comes home. That’s what the Bible says about the God of love.

No. Nothing is stronger than God but God never forces anyone to do what he says. To thes who reject His Word according to the scriptures he simply says depart from me you who work iniquity I never knew you. These receive the fiery indignation that shall devour the adversaries.

So... God’s Love does not prevail and Jesus’ sacrifice is insufficient to the task of love loving the world.
That’s a whole heap of “good news” right there. Thanks for sharing.

There is only good new for those who believe and follow God's Word. Those who do not believe and do not follow receive the judgements of God and the wages of sin because they reject the gift of God's dear son
HEBREWS 10:26-27 [26], For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more a sacrifice for sins,[27], but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which shall devour the adversaries.
Are you a teacher in a church and do not know these things?

My bible reads that the good news is for everyone equally. I guess your “good news” comes with discrimination attached.

So does mine. It also says not everyone will accept this good news and choose not to believe and follow God's Word. Many are called but few are chosen it read because wide is the gate the leads to destruction and many go in thereat but narrow is the gate the leads to life and few there be that find it. Many are called but few are chosen. Are you a teacher in a church that does not know these things?

Ah, yes. The “Faithful Remnant” theme. We find it throughout the Bible. The difference is that generally the ones pointing fingers at apostates are not part of the Faithful Remnant. Something for you to think about...

No one is pointing fingers at the Apostles, prophets or JESUS. I believe it is all of these that are pointing fingers at those who follow man made teachings and tradtions that break the commandmetns of God. Something to think about

RE-WORDED
I believe God has His people in every Church. I believe that the scriptures teach that the Roman Catholic Church (not the people) is MYSTERY BABYLON the great mother of harlots and God is calling his people out from this apostate Church back to the pure Word of Godout from this apostate Church back to the pure Word of God.
REVELATION 18:1-5 [1], And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. [2], And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. [3], For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. [4], And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues.
God's first and second commandments...
EXODUS 20:3-6 [3], You shall have no other gods before me. [4], You shall not make to you any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. [5], You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; [6], And showing mercy to thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments

I believe God's people are all those who believe and follow God's Word. I believe that JESUS teaches in his own words that all those who follow man made teachings and traditions that break the commandments of God are not following God *MATTHEW 15:2-9. The question we must all ask ourselves is who do I believe and follow.

“Apostates” — “Apostates” — not “apostles.” Holy Optometrist, Batman!

That’s very nice. Perhaps you’d like to join us Christians? Is that what you’re trying to say? There’s always room for you, because, in Christianity, we don’t judge or put people on the outside.
Given what I have seen in previous posts, I was curious about that response. Was it an error or a calculated deception?

I had the same thought. Gaslighting is a favorite ploy.
The message I have been getting here is that following him is the only way to salvation.
