But it does, as the unelect unbelievers are never granted the graces that leads to adoption. Those that die unbelieving are doomed to remain with titles bastards and familial rebels, forever.

If the Lord wills for someone to receive salvific grace and adoption, the Lord will make it so in history, for the Lord's will will be done and the Lord never changes His will or mind (Psalms 33:10-11, Isaiah 46:8-10, 1 Samuel 15:29, Malachi 3:6)
