Everyone can be saved that deserves to be saved. IMHO

Only trouble with that is no one deserves to be saved.

None of us deserves to be saved. That's why its called GRACE. Grace is God's unmerited favor. Grace is God doing good for us that we do not deserve. In the Bible, grace and mercy are like two heads of the same coin. Mercy is God withholding judgment or evil that I deserve; grace is God giving me blessing or good that I do not deserve.

Because of God's mercy, I do not receive the judgment of God against my sins; because of God's grace, I receive eternal life and a promise of heaven though I do not deserve them. Both mercy and grace come to me though the Lord Jesus Christ.
