But he will not save

The connecting word But introduces an exceptional relationship. God saves everyone who believes. But people who do not believe are excluded from the everyone. Alternate translation: “God will only save those who believe in Jesus and accept him as their Master. He will not save those who do not believe in him.” (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/grammar-connect-exceptions)

so he can be a friend to you.

The connecting word so connects the reason (you believe in Jesus), with the result (he can be a friend to you). (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/grammar-connect-logic-result)
