We have free will. There aren't any people "destined" for hell, they made that choice themselves

Scripture teaches that God allows heathens to co-exist with His Chosen ones becasue (Matthew 13) His Chosen Ones couldn't handle it right now if God destroyed them right now.
..and (Romans) God has made some for Noble purposes and some for destruction...to show HIS Chosen ones mercy.
It is all to God's Glory...all part of His plan..and all for His Chosen Ones benefit.. Praise Him!!
Matthew 13:27-30 (NKJV)
So the servants of the owner came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?' 28He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' The servants said to him, 'Do you want us then to go and gather them up?' 29But he said, 'No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. 30Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, "First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn." ' "
Romans 9:21-24 (NKJV)
Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor? 22What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction, 23and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory, 24even us whom He called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
