Does God "Love" ALL peoples equal basis then?

Psalm 5:5
The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity

Matthew 7:23
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity

Seems like the same people who he hates never knew him and are the ones going to hell. Also God has rejected people who are called reprobates:

Jeremiah 6:30
Reprobate silver shall men call them, because the LORD hath rejected them.

Romans 1:28
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

I can't see any verse that suggest the comman saying of God hates the sin but not the sinner.

I agree that God's love was in the ark, and not outside of it. But what was the difference between the two? One found grace in the sight of God(Noah and his family), and the rest did not. It wasn't that God hated them without a cause, though. The reason why Noah and his family survived and the others perished was because of disobedience.

Gen. 6:5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

So here you see why those who were left out of the ark. Their imaginations were continually evil. It was by their continual evil doing that God chose to wipe the earth clean, and start all over again, with Noah and his family.

Good post Willis...another one we agree on:applause::thumbs:
We would all be destroyed as was the WORLD of the ungodly...But God who is rich in mercy..eph2:4
