How do we know God's desire for all to be saved is true?

Answered in 1 source

God's desire for all to be saved is affirmed in the parable of the great banquet, which reveals His compassion and eagerness to invite all to salvation.

In the parable of the great banquet, God's eagerness for the salvation of souls is poignantly displayed. After those initially invited refused to come, the master commands his servant to go out and bring in the poor, the maimed, and the blind, thereby demonstrating His inexhaustible patience and compassion. This underscores the truth that God earnestly desires all to come to repentance and faith, as seen in 2 Peter 3:9, which states that the Lord is 'not willing that any should perish.' This desire reflects God's heart for the lost and emphasizes the lengths to which He will go to ensure that His house is filled, validating the universality of His invitation.
