Hi Dakota,
I do enjoy this debate. I thought I would clarify one issue here for you. You said:

But when it says that He died for all our sins, "all" must include even those who have never heard of Jesus and those who have heard but follow a different path.

I am not aware of scripture saying this. I think that scripture is fairly clear that all who 'believe in Jesus' are saved through him. Furthermore, Jesus also said, in Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

This is not to preclude God from saving other people but anyone saved through Jesus appears by scripture to be saved by Grace on account of their faith.

I welcome any corrections here.

You are not alone.

Love,
Ben
