Do you not know that lying is a sin? God does NOT love everyone! Did God love Esau? How about the people of the city of Sodom? Or Lot's wife? Does God love the people he sends to hell? Which Jesus said is the majority of this world. Does he love non-believers or worshippers of false Gods? Not according to scripture, God created vessels of wrath fitted to destruction and vessels of mercy from who he's fixed his love.
Everyone has their own opinion, but in the end, any kind of hate is destructive to the hated and the hater. Love is healing and inspires growth and happiness. I wish love to everyone, no matter who you are, or what you believe, Great song.

"Worthy of it's Grace". Is that not an oxymoron. I love Ron Sexsmith very much, I have all his albums. Many of his words have healed me and brought me closer to God. But Hell is a very real place and some, God help us, are going there. If you do nothing for your fellow man do not expect to go to heaven. You will not be let in. Jesus says if you couldn't even give the thirsty a cup of water you did so not unto him. The "killer in his cell and the atheist as well" may have done so . I pray so.
im not part of the westboro baptist chruch but Can you show me scripture that shows me that God Loves Everybody? and can you explain Romans 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. also why does God Hate the workers on iniquity?
great question mate. through out scripture you will find a multitude of opinions in differing circumstances . God does love all. the whole human family. Remember god HATES a lying tongue but he does not hate liars. He HATES homosexuality but not homosexuals. Jesus says all blasphemies against the son of man are forgiven but not against the holy spirit. Many people believe that everyone gets saved but they are not quoting the bible. Ron does not consider himself Christian. He's not quoting bible
@mlking98, you think he is referring to scripture? Scripture merely states what the author felt, and it reflects nothing but the insecurities of the men who wrote it. I do not know exactly what the great powers in the universe amount to, whether or not there are elements of truth in scripture, or if there are ultimate consequences, but I do know this: a man who can believe so implicitly in the good he feels in the world, in the God he knows, and in simple caring is truly the best of men.
I listened to it and cried and listened 4 more times in my car. What happens when we die is a mystery - in the end we believe what we can. Thank you for choosing something beautiful and trusting your heart enough to write such a powerful song.
@rn68 maybe those who believe in god prefer the ideas of judgement and hell -i think he is the most underestimated singer/songwriter in the world -what beautiful words and ideas he sings
I do hope you know the god that you sing to is a figment of your imagination... Not the God of the bible...

If you believe that "God loves everyone", you are no christian.
Shame to you if you seek unconditional love just for existing, even greater shame if you embrace a faith for the sake of your ego.

Thanks for this,
I considered myself an atheist but still say i have faith in something, a god that can't hate anyone so this really stuck a chord with me.

As humans, we try to put out own limitations on how far reaching God's love really is.
I contacted Ron a long time ago about videotaping a show if he was ever in-town and didn't have any problems with it. Thanks for the post.
