So this is the behavior (or fruit, since fruit was brought up earlier) of the elect? To represent other believers in this way and then laugh about it. Can you really fault people for not accepting Calvin as teacher?
Wow just wow. "Was it by my will" spoken by this murderer rings about the same as "am I my brother's keeper"?
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
The kind of man who delights in taking vengeance and murdering other believers by torturing them slowly cannot possibly claim to possess the knowledge of the truth.
2 Timothy 2:24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
Romans 12:20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: (...)
Romans 12:19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

1 Tim 2:4, I am guessing that you like to keep the scriptures in context so that they will harmonize with each other. The "all men" in 1 Tim 2:4 is the same as the "as many as" in Romans 8:14, Gal 6:15, Phil 3:15, Acts 13:48, Acts 2:39, John 17:2, John 1:12.
You also are probably among those that misinterpret 2 Pet 3:9; The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to "us-ward", not willing that "any" should "perish", but that "all" should come to repentance.
In order to understand who Peter is talking to, we have to go back to chapter 1, verse 1, and he is talking to "them that have obtained like precious faith".
Peter even includes himself in his warning, to those of like precious faith, by using the word "usward". Peter is warning them that when they commit a sin, they should repent, in order to not "lose" (perish) their fellowship with God.
Little words have large meanings in a lot of the scriptures.
