Santiago,
Well, I certainly do not profess to know all things...God only knows all things! But when reading that verse in context to the entire Bible, it makes sense to me that it is possible, and also God loves everyone at the same time. You know, "God loves the sinner, but hates the sin!" I am sure you have heard that.
I will try to go back and find my explanation of this from the past, and repost it if found. It didn't work then and I am sure it won't now! That's why I won't put too much energy into getting into this discussion again.
But regardless, certain areas of the Bible are clear to some, and not others. And different areas to different people. Salvation is a great example of this, as the Bible clearly teaches both predestination and also free will at the same time. I know this one would probably start many other discussions (as it has in the past). And logically it challenges most people. We're mere men trying to figure out everything about God. What else would you expect!!!
But bottom line, will all figure it out when we see him!
God Bless,
