>normal biblical hermeneutics

I literally quote him the bible over and over and he denies it. If denying the words of Jesus and the apostles is "normal" then I'm not upset that I don't follow them. I will never stop saying what I say, because it is what the bible says. Paul makes it clear who His target audience is.

even us whom he has called, not from the jews only but also from the Nations? 25 As indeed he says in Hose′a,

“Those who were not my people
I will call ‘my people,’
and her who was not beloved
I will call ‘my beloved.’”
26 “And in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’
they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’”

This prophecy of Hosea was concerning the children of Israel. Jesus recalled all of His sheep. This is basic stuff. His you sheep were nobody but Israelites. You are included in this, but you find it offensive, and I can't understand why. Who are we to question?

>6 So it depends not upon man’s will or exertion, but upon God’s mercy. 17 For the scripture says to Pharaoh, “I have raised you up for the very purpose of showing my power in you, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth.” 18 So then he has mercy upon whomever he wills, and he hardens the heart of whomever he wills.

>19 You will say to me then, “Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?” 20 But who are you, a man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, “Why have you made me thus?” 21 Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for beauty and another for menial use? 22 What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience the vessels of wrath made for destruction

God created some specifically for destruction, as stated here in Romans 9. You can't change your fate.
