    Those that don't truly believe ( professed with the lips, but in their works they deny actually knowing Him ) and never did,
    and those who have never professed Christ.

    If Scripture states it, then are you willing to accept what is written?

    show from the Bible, where it says that believers will see their loved ones being tormented in hell

    We will have the full mind of Lord Jesus when glorified , and as such, we will realize and understand that the person chose to go to that state! it was their fault, and not Gods!

    You demonstrate my point by leading with ad hominem. I am not "outraged," I am not "biased" about finding ad hominem lamentable no matter who perpetrates it, and my concern is not "faux." I wasn't talking about myself in any case, I was responding to 1689 calling SBG a liar, and finding it regrettable that this sort of response has become typical on a board where Christian love ought to be more in evidence. Do you disagree?

    I disagree with you changing Gerstner's wording from rejoice to disagree. Jesus agreed to go to the cross; He did not rejoice in it. God judges the wicked; He does not rejoice in it.

    Would the saints not rejoice in the justice of their King?

    but, if reformed theology says that God has already chosen those who will be saved, and left the rest to be damned, how it is their fault?

    God does not rejoice in it. What makes you think His saints should, or will?

    Per Luther, we have a free will under bondage and enslaved to the sin nature!

    I'm not. I'm telling you that you are conflating two separate topics and missing Gerstner's point. Go read my comment to Tsalagi regarding Gerstner's answer.

    Will the saints consider God unjust when they enter God's presence or will they rejoice in God's justice?

    LOL, you are the person continually misunderstanding the text and reading what is not there into the text.
    I understand the text. I disagree with how you abusively interpret the text.
