Last year the Miami Dolphins won a single game of their 16 game schedule.
1 and 15.
Is that glory? Would you say that record deserves praise and honor and cheering? Does a 1 and 15 display attributes in a team that deserve lauding?
So....
if 90% of humanity end up in hell for eternity; is that victory? If God has a plan to save mankind, and that plan only saved 10 percent of the target group... are we to say that plan is successful? Is it a winner? Does it sound like a plan that came from a mind that has infinite wisdom, power, and sovereignty? If God is indeed not willing that ANY should perish, and yet 90% of them in fact do perish; where is the glory, victory, and dominion in this?
And look at it from the other side. If Jesus suffered and endured the price to save all mankind but in fact He only ends up saving 10%... would that mean 90% of His suffering was for naught and in fact unfairly assessed?
Any ideas on how these things are rightly divided?
