Huh, I guess one could make the argument that when Christ was crucified and God split the temple that He was also splitting them off from Him. Interesting take for sure, but many came to Christ after and because of those events. Definitely merits a discussion I’d say.
I agree with you, just was a thought I could see some one pursuing. God wouldn’t exclude anybody, hard for us humans to believe since we struggle to do the same, albeit often for good reason and to defend ourselves, but we’re also not God.
"if you knew the father, you would know me" -Jesus Christ
So yeah, they don't know the father or the son. Instead, because of their denial, he said "ye are of your father the devil and it is his will ye will do."
It cannot be more clear, and straight from the mouth of Jesus.
