What does the Bible say about God's love for everyone?

Scripture clearly indicates that God's love is not extended to everyone universally. In Romans 9:11, we see that God's choices are based on His election, stating that His love towards Jacob and hatred towards Esau was determined before they had done any good or evil. This demonstrates that God's love is not based on human actions but rather His sovereign will. Additionally, passages such as John 3:16 specify that Christ's atoning sacrifice is for those who believe, implying that not everyone is included in this love. Thus, the idea that God loves everyone is a misunderstanding of how Scripture presents God's justice and mercy.
