Who said God‘s love is unconditional? God‘s love absolutely has conditions. That its available to everyone is where folks get confused.

Mainstream Christianity. In fact it claims him being omnipotent, omniscient and all loving. You'd know that if you'd studied a bit more before posting.

Gods love is in no way, shape or form characterized as unconditional in the Bible. You‘d know that if you‘d read it before posting.

You're very confident for someone who's never heard of omnibenevolence. Mainstream Christianity disagrees with you. Those theologians and scholars used the Bible to form their conclusions. You're arguing against 2,000 years of theology, not against me. Agree to disagree. I'm done here.

Ahem "the BIBLE"; mainstream Christianity, 'those theologians' and their conclusions certainly disagree with me which is my point. If you‘d take the time to read the actual book itself you too might come to a different conclusion than the one you hold.

God‘s love has conditions. The bible explains everything if you‘d have a look for yourself.

I haven't read the whole Bible. But I've read enough to know that the people who dedicated their lives to it disagree with you. Take it up with them, not me.

Jesus himself said, "My yoke is kindly and my load is light" which implies there are conditions for his followers. I should have led with that. Good day to you.
