Randy,
I agree with Bob's post on 1 Tim2 all types of men.
On Ezekiel 18 I always think of Jesus weeping over Jerusalem.Humanly speaking if all men living would, or could repent, everyone would be happy.
However the devasting effects of sin and the righteous judgement of God against all sin demands the judgement to come.
One reason these verses are in scripture is to instruct us on who to pray for, and what attitude we must strive to maintain, desiring to see men turn from sin.
