Christians say that Esau sold his birthright to Jacob

The Bible does not say that God chose Jacob; in fact Jacob's success is explained in the Bible as coming about by Jacob's repeated unethical conduct, which would presumably be anathema to God.
In the Bible, Jacob wronged Esau because he "stole" the blessing his father was going to give to Esau (Genesis 27:1-40) . Jacob did this by pretending to be Esau. He lied to his father basically. He deceived him. His father couldn't tell by sight if it was Esau because he was blind (Genesis 27:1).
For Jacob I have loved and Esau I have hated. That being said God did not save Esau but God did give him wives and a land all his own and children, in other words even though we know for sure Esau was not saved and Jacob was, God did not leave him totally deprived. Esau loved his wife and children and even had the ability to forgive his brother Jacob 20 years later after he stole his birthright. Jesus says is it not easier to tell someone that their sins be forgiven them or to heal them of their blindness. If someone is sick its because of the sinful world we chose from the beginning and it is not Gods fault, But dont worry He will fix it soon. And God will choose whom God will choose. I sam 2-6 its pretty self explanitory.
"Goodbye, Jacob, my brother...my son"
