Rebuttal of the dreadful doctrine of reprobation
Psalms 8:6
Set me as a seal on your heart, as a seal on your arm. For love is as strong as death; ardent love is as unrelenting as Sheol. Love's flames are fiery flames-- the fiercest of all
Who's our seal AMR?
Who is Love AMR?
Who is a consuming fire AMR?
You seriously haven't pieced this together? Why? Because the reformist didn't?
So what, Jesus is the Living Scripture and He was Loving to all, except one brand of people. ~ Did those people Love sinners or hate sinners?
Jesus called sinners the sons of God, but He called theological rock stars that judged and taught holiness was law and deed, Vipers and sons of the devil.
Please theologically disprove me. I will take no answer as an answer. Prove to me that God is anything other than Love.

This is the core of my studies through prayer and introspection. Calvin said to understand ourselves and God. His words, not mine.
“True wisdom consists in two things: Knowledge of God and Knowledge of Self.”
― John Calvin
“The gospel is not a doctrine of the tongue, but of life. It cannot be grasped by reason and memory only, but it is fully understood when it possesses the whole soul and penetrates to the inner recesses of the heart.”
― John Calvin, Golden Booklet of the True Christian Life
“Man's nature, so to speak, is a perpetual factory of idols.”
― John Calvin
You understand all the pieces AMR. We are reprobates in the majesty of God. He is the Rich King who Loves the poor servant girl that whored around and made her His queen. He is the Father that plucked the problem orphans of this world from the home of condemnation.
How is He not Love?

The plain facts are that some will be saved and others will not. God is able to save all mankind, yet we know all are not saved. So unless you want to claim that God is unable to save each and every person, you must accept that it is within His will to not do so. Rather, God has stipulated the requirements for eternal life: call upon the name of the Lord. This is all mankind's duty. Those that refuse to do their duty are without excuse (see Romans 1), for they know He exists and they know what they ought to do. It is but for their vain imaginings that they have exchanged what they know for a lie.
Therefore, no matter how you want to nuance "reprobation", the plain teachings of Scripture testify to the fact that there are those in Hell right now awaiting their final judgment and eternal punishment. Does God possess the power to save them? I doubt you would deny this. Then explain why they are there such that God is somehow "off the hook" for their terrible destinies.
