It's a lie. People are born wicked and hated by God.

It's what you want the Bible to say but many prove you wrong. All of the historic Reformed creeds, Presbyterian creeds, Baptist creeds, and more.

The point is Jesus limited his death to the sheep. Forever. Prove he said he died for the goats, the only other contrasted group.

Scripture does not say this. “The LORD trieth the righteous: But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.” Psalm 11:5 (KJV 1900)
