Mark,
I believe I can understand how you feel. God is very personal, actually to me the very essence of our spirit. The Bible says he breathed life into Adam and I believe He does that with everything that has breath. He makes clear that his goal is for all to know him and not perish. Therefore since he is so much greater than we are in wisdom and love I believe he has ways we do not understand. In all my days I have not seen anyone decide to follow him from fear of eternal punishment. The love of God draws all people because it is the core of our being. For me Yeshua is God and there is not intermediary just him and his love gave a covering for the whole earth.
In one account Yeshua said that the law would not perish until heaven and earth disappear and those that keep it will be called great in the Kingdom of heaven. I understand from this that there will positions in heaven and the KKK types will be put in a position to learn to love and serve instead of take.
I see God as the greatest teacher ever, almost every word and experience we have is to teach us about his love and his ways.
