@suzianne saidYes, I realize the Bible makes clear God does 'not' love the chaff. I'm asking, why not?
"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." -- Matthew 22:37-40, KJV
The wheat follows these. The chaff does not.
...[text shortened]... said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:" -- John 10:26-27, KJV
Does a parent not love a wayward child?
