Does God love everybody?

Ha, what Ken, I am trying to kick off my day with a touchy, touchy, feel good, and some coffee and a cronut. Look, as we dive right in, I remember a story whereby some Mormons came to my place to share their religion. In truth, what I like to ask these traveling kids, are questions about their own beliefs. And now but these kids had stopped by for the second time, as I invited them back after giving them something to think about the first time. And so we ended up on the topic of God loving everyone which I believe is a statement that they had made. So I took them to this scripture:

Malachi 1:2-3 - “I have loved you,” says the Lord. “Yet you say, ‘In what way have You loved us?’ Was not Esau Jacob’s brother?” Says the Lord. “Yet Jacob I have loved; 3 But Esau I have hated, And laid waste his mountains and his heritage For the jackals of the wilderness.”

And so now as you can expect these ill-equipped elders were not aware that this was in the bible that they were holding. After a few awkward moments of no response, they peddled off somewhat thrown off by their own biblical ignorance. What I was trying to do was to point out, not only the fact that they were not equipped for doing what they were doing, but that they also were ignorant of the scriptures. My goal was to drive them to look at the scriptures and move away from what man states about the bible (interpretation) and get them to where they could be authentically born again and begin to get revelation imparted by the Holy Spirit. Every Mormon on the planet needs to have the born again experience to be saved. Hey yall peeps do not believe it for a moment that you can get around this one fact:

John 14:6 - Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
