Help me have clearer clarification on the topic of God not wanting anyone to perish but then He created us all knowing our destination.
God created us, as in... He created 'humanity'. Unfortunately, we humans are rebellious by nature. It is something we are ALL born into. However, God loves us and wants us to love him, by our own free will choice, in return. He could have easily forced us to love Him by not allowing our free will to exist, but that would not be TRUE love.
We are born into 'darkness' (evil and deceit) and are absent from the presence of God, but the love of God has offered us 'light' (truth and love). The result of our rejecting God is then not punishment, but of our own choice in choosing to follow darkness (the lie) rather than light (the truth) which is God. It is all about love. God loves us and desires our love in return. We either choose to love truth or to remain in the darkness.
