Are you certain that you are saved?
The words are different (in the original, not even in English),
but multitudes will hear on Judgment Day "bye bye",
when they were sure they were saved while alive on earth, they weren't.
I trust in God's mercy for me and for all. He is Lord, the eternal. What I find depressing is some christians think they actually know, when they do not. I hope for the savation for all men, and pray for that.
This depth of judging is forbidden to us, Jesus said that.
Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. (Matthew 7:1-2)
Jesus is talking about judging the soul of another, since each soul is beloved of God, only God sees the depths of the heart. Yes, we can judge an action, but we are all sinners and hope for mercy. When we judge another soul, we are denying mercy to them in our hearts. However, I am sure you love and pray for all......you are after all a man of God.
In any case, believe what you want on the issue. I will continue to pray for the salvation of all, and leave the rest up to God's infinite mercy. Those who are lost, actually want it, it is not an accident. Also, Jesus does not say bye bye to the lost, he still loves them, it is they who hate him. For lthem to go to be in his presence would be worse than hell......so to say that he does not care about all of his chlildren makes a mockery of his life.
Peace
Mark
