Or, why did God choose to save YOU?

I love Coffee's answer. She does a personal rant about the unfairness of God for not converting everyone and then says "not that I want to be converted into a Christian." This is why people go to hell, because they hate God and want nothing to do with His plans for them.
I have no idea why God showed mercy to me but I'll be eternally grateful for His grace. Grace, by the way, which is available to anyone who will humble themselves and submit to God through Jesus.

Well isn't that a bit biased?
He "allowed you to hear His word and drew you to Him aka saved you". I mean, come on, does that mean he doesn't care about the rest of us? Isn't he being a b*tch then? It's like he's saying that certain people can believe, and others can't. Why didn't he choose to save us all? I'd say that's a bit unfair, not that I want to be converted into a Christian.
Isn't God supposed to love everyone equally, as we are his children? But apparently not if he's deciding to favour some people. What happens to everyone else? They get to die and go to hell because God just didn't want to let them 'hear His word'?
And if he doesn't want people rebelling, not believing and sinning, then why did he decide to create us in the first place?
Think rationally and logically, people.

Many religions all over the world have claimed devine words. Who are we to say they are false...truly? Why would he only speak to one part of the world.
That just does not add up. Add it all together and it makes much more sense. :)

my friend you need to understand that we are born from god.
meaning we are originally from heaven.
but because we are born into sin we need to go back to him so that we may hear him and live heaven on earth.
you are from the country called heaven and you need to represent god here on earth.
he choose to save me because i confessed my sins to him and acknowleged that i'm a sinner and need him in my life.
i set life and death before you, therefore choose life.
my friend may have chosen death even though they were adviced to choose life.
love you all my brothers and sister and be strong in the lord.

Silly fruitcake, God draws those who He knows are drawn to Him. "Draw near to God and He'll draw near to you." You'll never prove Him unjust or unfair.

I have absolutely no idea, I certainly haven't done anything to deserve His grace, His love, or His mercy.
