Only to people that die on the flood of Noah era
brother Jesus is the only way for anyone to be saved whether they lived in Noah’s day and refused the word and perished and remained in a spiritual prison after death , or if one lived under Moses law generations later and refused the word and perished under the curse of death in the law thier spirit sti went into the afterlife’s prison or places of torment or rest after death “ spiritual sleep with the body “for those who’d been faithful
Those who had been faithful from the law forward who had slept in the earth , rose because Jesus died and by the spirit ent to preach the gospel to the dead as he had the living before he died
the result is this
“And,
behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the
earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
and
the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.”
Matthew 27:51-53 KJV
“But some man will say,
How are the dead raised up? and
with what body do they come?
it is
sown a natural body;
it is
raised a spiritual body.
There
is a natural body, ( death )
and
there is a spiritual body.”( life )
1 Corinthians 15:35, 44 KJV
“And as it is
appointed unto men once to die,
but
after this the judgment:”
Hebrews 9:27 KJV
“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for
this is the whole duty of man.
For
God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.”
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 KJV
“Then shall
the dust ( natural body) return to the dust as it was:
and
the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.”
Ecclesiastes 12:7
“For
we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive
the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.”
2 Corinthians 5:10 KJV
The reason I’m quoting these is the understanding that our body of flesh is already appointed to die , to perish and return to the dust it came from
but the living spirit inside of our body , is not going to die with the flesh and become dust , it’s going to return to God for judgement of our estate upon earth while we lived in our body
my point is Muslim kid that has never been allowed to hear about Jesus or a kid in secular and communist China requiring worship of ccp, who has never been allowed to hear the gospel and make a decision all of these folks through all time who never were presented with this choice in life ( like those in Noah’s day , like the ot saints who saw this beforehand far away and believed and foretold ) or like those in the world who lived and died since then in times and places where they weren’t allowed to hear the gospel , presently like China , north Korea , Iran , ( any other Muslim or Buddhist or whatever religion rules the country ) those folks have sincerely never had the choice many of the free world have had never been presented with the message of Gods kingdom that
saves souls from sin and death
Christ isnt limited by death like man is , he preached the gospel to the living foret and then the dead also and those who accepted came out of thier graves
It’s a good news fruit brother the messiah came and went into death for us breaking its bonds upon our souls even those who died before he came and realized his predetermined will that Christ should die nd be raised and be the judge who gives life to mankind life to the dead and living
Brother consider that this changes our perspective about death and includes all who die the first death whether they heard his voice in life or death because he is lord of all both the living and the dead
Before Christ came died and rose from dead in victory for man
“I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.”
Matthew 22:32 KJV
The fruits of Christs death and resurrection
“For to this end
Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.”
Romans 14:9 KJV
“For
for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that
they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but
live according to God in the spirit.”
1 Peter 4:6 KJV
“For the Father judgeth no man, but hath
committed all judgment unto the Son: Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and
now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
…Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which
all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life;
and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.”
John 5:22, 24-25, 27-
After Jesus died and preached the gospel in death and rose , this happened
And,
behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the
earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
and
the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.”
Matthew 27:51-53 KJV
you have to hear the words of Christ in order to reject or accept them in thinking
it’s possible God has covered even those who never hear the gospel in life and choose, just saying there’s a lot of scripture to suggest that one can hear the gospel even in death of they didn’t in life , for example those in Noah’s day
