Some people will not hear that Jesus is the Savior of all the worlds.
Revelation 1:7-8
King James Version
7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
His sheep hear His voice, but not all are His sheep! Unfortunately, He is not the Savior of all the world. Many will be lost. Only those who receive Him and believe. I would think that when every eye sees Him, they will finally realize their error - but it might be too late. You see, during the Great Tribulation - which is almost upon us, many will receive the
mark of the Beast. Once you receive that mark, you have sealed your fate.
To date, there have been many theories as to what this mark will be. Will it be physical or spiritual or both. Scripture says that during these times of a New World Order, you won't be able to buy or sell unless you have this mark (on your hand or forehead). So it must be visible. Some speculate that it will be an embedded computer chip. Others think it could he present in a vaccine taken. ??
So those who are not Christian yet and still have refused to receive this mark, will have a chance to be saved. Well, that is another topic of which there are many views and lots of material to examine.
There are fundamentals that we can all believe, the essentials. But then there are non-essential doctrines that we squabble with, divide over. We shouldn't, but people get passionate and are adament about being right - it's pride.
EXAMPLES: Believing in a young earth or old earth will not effect your salvation. Half of Christians believe in this "Theistic evolution", which I don't.
Some believe in a coming Millennial Kingdom where Jesus will actually be King on earth in Jerusalem and some either think it was past or was/is spiritual.
Are the Catholics right about praying to the saints and Mary, asking them to intercede or do the Protestants have it right?
So just a heads up. There are many debates going on and it will appear that these Christians are not unified. We are with the essentials. The main crucial one is the gospel in one sentence:
Jesus died for our sins, was buried and rose from the dead kn the third day according to the scriptures. If you believe that you are saved. You can be confused about a lot of other things, but not that one. There is more to it obviously. But
your belief opens the door to a transformed life and begins a relationship with God through Christ. A prayer life, following Him and obeying His commandments to love Him and eachother.
