John,

Errata: Actually the word "kindness" in Titus 3:4 is not the same as "love" (philanthropia). It is chrestotes, which has the following meanings/uses: usefulness, i.e. morally, excellence (in character or demeanor), gentleness, good(-ness), kindness.

Even so, this does not change the fact that Titus 3:4 does NOT teach that God loves all men, but rather that God shows "beneficence" to all men. And that kindness chrestotes is meant to lead men to repentance (cf. Rom 2:4 where Paul uses this same word).

In His grace,

I was wondering if what Hisalone refers to as objective love not perhaps better known as common grace?
