When I saw the world with Christian eye's, I saw a sinful world. Each person a sinner before God, deserving punishment. But this concept tainted my view of the human spirit, and people's intentions. I was stuck thinking only bad of people, and therefore judging them all the same.

This isn't a concept. It is reality. Therefore what is tainted and sinful is thinking anyone(any person on earth) is not a sinner before God, not realizing that each one is deserving punishment (eternal death and separation from God forever).

Thinking anyone is not a sinner, may destroy their soul, as it destroys billions of souls who do not repent to be saved.

It may prevent them from finding out about the Atonement/ Forgiveness/ Redemption of Christ Jesus
Who lived and Who Died for the sins of mankind (since all are sinners, all - everyone- need a Redeemer) ,
and may prevent them from being saved to eternal life.

I like that you have been liberated from being judgemental, and I do not have any criticism for you!

I only hope you will not allow this aspect of love and new observation to become a blanket rule and form an irrational belief that will cloud your judgement (eg: a belief that nobody is ever wrong), because some people may rely upon your integrity and honesty to represent righteousness to them for the sake of their repentance and growth, even though you are not viewing them judgmentally

Why sorry ?
The whole world is still perishing - no closed door there.
The world is not perishing, because life can not perish.

If we die out it's because we had our allotted time.

The Creator of the world says the world is under a death sentence because of sin and sinfulness.
It is full of unimaginable wickedness in every country, everywhere.
It will be destroyed, exactly as written. By fire the next time, not by a flood.

That's not what it's about. I can't in good conscience believe that all people are born dead, little babies are born dead? What a horrible view to have.

I'm sorry to upset you here, Jesus is not coming back. I'm sure after 2000 years of his disciples waiting and waiting, that's evident enough he is gone.

How could you upset a believer?
Our faith and confidence is in Jesus Salvation and God's Strength, the Truth of His Word, not the sinful mutterings of mankind/ society/ that dwells in darkness.

His Return is exactly when He Says it is - unknown to the world, and in judgment of those not expecting Him.

The time for repentance , for turning to YHWH , is today.
Tomorrow will be too late for multitudes - they will be forever lost.

You will die waiting, and so will your children.
