The WHOLE BIBLE. You don't believe anyone who lived before Christ is saved?
Everyone is saved by the blood of Christ. If anyone was saved before His sacrifice, show me where in the Bible it says that.
John 10:9, "I am the door. If anyone enters through me, he will be saved, and will come in and go out, and find pasture."
Acts 4:12, "And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people by which we must be saved.”
Romans 5:10, "For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how much more, since we have been reconciled, will we be saved by his life?" (future tense)
Romans 10:9, "because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
Romans 11:26, "And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come out of Zion; he will [future tense] remove ungodliness from Jacob."
2 Timothy 1:9, "He is the one who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not based on our works but on his own purpose and grace, granted to us in Christ Jesus before time began,"
Titus 3:4-6, " But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared, he saved us not by works of righteousness that we have done but on the basis of his mercy, through the washing of the new birth and the renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us in full measure through Jesus Christ our Savior."
If you actually believe that salvation is possible without Christ's atoning sacrifice, then you are disbelieving what Scripture clearly says. Once again...
"And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people by which we must be saved.”
