Come on now, Jesus taught them and Paul !

How silly. The Bible is the way Jesus sees things. That is the whole point.

As I pointed out before it is an emphasis on what you think rather than what the Bible says. Make it say whatever you want: it changes nothing. You also gave no Biblical basis for a figurative interpretation, only your personal opinion. Forgive me if I ignore it.

What pablum. What I believe has no bearing on any outcome as to the destiny of the world.

And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come. matthew 24;14 this is just one part of the signs that Jesus said would be happening in the last days . and it was the good part , all the other signs were bad news .war, earthquakes, food shortages,pestilence,ect ect ....................and this goodnews is all about Gods heavenly kingdom goverment being set up in the heavens ,and Jesus being made king of it ,Daniel 2;44 daniel 7;13-14. and the preaching about this kingdom with Jesus as king ,is for a witness to the nations. very soon now this heavenly kingdom will step into the affairs of humans and crush all human goverments for ever. and this is goodnews indeed , because Jesus is the one that WILL BRING PEACE TO THE EARTH .ISAIAH 9;6-7
(Mark 13:10) Also, in all the nations the good news has to be preached first. .......bible prophecy and chronology was fullfilled in 1914 and this date was the start of the last days , this is the time when Jesus was made king of the heavenly goverment , and Jesus followers are making it known all over the world . its all happening, i am putting my vote in for Gods heavenly kingdom goverment revelation 7;9-10are you welcoming this newly enthroned king and telling others the goodnews about it .?i am helping the little flock of 144,000 to get the job done luke 12;32i am not going to inherit this kingdom , i am one of the other sheep that listen to Jesus voiceJohn 10;16 and my hope is to inherit a paradise earth and live on it FOREVER matthew 5;5 psalm 37;29

"For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life. ...yes as John 3;16 says ,God loves the world of mankind so much that he has arranged a way to everlasting life. and Jesus his son plays a very very big part in that purpose. when the time comes for Jehovah and Jesus to go into action , those who have refused to exersize faith will be destroyed or cutt-off from the blessings for the future, but at the end of the day they will want it that way. they will have made their choice.

How do you think He is able to reach those who lived in parts of the world where Christianity did not exist at the time?

Aren't you being just a little bit picky here?

"...that whosoever believeth in him..."

What do you believe it means to exercise faith?

Yeah, rightly dividing the truth you have to be picky. Faith is given to the elect in order that they will come to realize the things freely given to them by God. Its not as you imply a meritous act that man does to get saved. Those believing in christ have been given the gift of faith to realize their salvation.

Actually, you can be non-judgmental. It can actually work to your advantage.

I see. And what about those He didn't pick?

What I have implied? Don't you mean what you have read into my answer?
