How do we know God's compassion is for everyone?

Answered in 1 source

God's compassion is illustrated through Jesus' tears over Jerusalem, showing His interest in the spiritual condition of all people.

Christ's compassion for Jerusalem is a clear indication that His love is not restricted to the elect alone but is expansive towards all of humanity. In Luke 19:41-48, as He weeps over the city, He demonstrates a heart that is concerned for the lost, longing for their repentance. This poignant moment underscores a vital aspect of God's character – His mercy and readiness to save, affirming that He is 'not willing that any should perish.' It serves as a reminder that every individual, regardless of their current state, is under the Lord's compassionate gaze, and there is no one whom He does not desire to turn to Him.
