Why did God fore-ordain the majority of the world to be sinners; and how come he doesn't visit his iniquity upon a lot of them? In other words, a lot of people benefit from being sinful.
First and foremost..we all enter this world NAKED, naked a Metephor for SINFUL.
Sinful for mine, means No more than NOT SEEING the Hidden NEW MAN within,...Being in denial to what TRUE life is.
If you see sinful as some one who steals etc as Bigger than that which is NOT OF FAITH IS SIN, then for mine I disagree...WE ALL REAP what we sow....SOW WAR youll reap it ETC..God is Not mocked in this area....
SO for me theres no adavantage at all,
why do some SEE and why do many NOT...so GOD MAY HAVE MERCY on all,he raises us up for HIS GLORY not ours, Some for now for Honour , some for dishonour, but each POT remains the Same as its remoulded IN HIS TIME...

19But the foundation that God has laid is solid. On it is written, "The Lord knows who his people are. So everyone who worships the Lord must turn away from evil."
2 Timothy 2:19:
Nevertheless the Foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them who are His own, And, let every one that names the Name of Messiah depart from iniquity.

In what time frame are you looking at that would say people benefit from being sinful?
Well, look at power hungry rich people.
Matthew 19:24
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Do they really benefit, or do you wish to have the money they have without knowing what they deal with within their heart that you cannot see?
