Is it possible --- the many many Christian Churches have not understood a universally accepted doctrine, from the New Testament and the Old as well?

One central doctrine accepted by the majority; Christ came to save all of mankind.

And that IS "The Truth"! But WHEN is the question?

Fact, the entire population of the world at the time of Noah, all but 8, died because of sin, lawlessness. Hundreds of thousands or Millions or billions died, we do not know the number?

Fact, From the time of Noah until the time Christ came to earth for the first time, there were hundreds of million and possible billions that lived and died, all before Christ came. And many died at birth or before and as little children.

And as is taught in the Old Testament, God was only working with a very small “tribe” of Hebrews, the 12 Tribes coming from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, God’s “Chosen People”. At the time of the Exodus, God’s Chosen could have numbered around 5 million.

Jumping to the End, in the Book of Revelation, we find;

Revelation 19
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed [are] they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb.

Paul states in 2 Corinthians 11: 2, “I have espoused you to ONE husband” and Paul can only be speaking to the Church of God began at Pentecost 31 AD.

Fact: God’s Church will marry Jesus Christ.

This is the time all Christians are waiting for, Salvation, and there is no mention of the 100 billion that died, most of which, never even heard, once, the only name under heaven given by which men can be saved.

Where are the 100 billion that have lived and died over the last 6000 years??

100 billion in “Hell” as is generally taught? And that shows God’s power and mercy?

Can now, “Today”, be the only day salvation is offered?
 
The Prophets spoke of Jesus. They believed in Him before His earthly ministry. Jesus is YHWH. All one had to do is follow the true God to receive salvation. The promise started with Adam and Eve. They believed in Jesus! Jesus isn't a new thing. There was a multitude of Egyptians that were grafted into Israel when the Hebrews departed from Egypt. They witnessed God's power and decided to align with Him over the false gods. Israel is the bride of Christ, not the church. All followers of Christ are grafted into Israel. In the days of Noah, we are told that all was exceedingly wicked. There were a lot of fallen angels in charge at this time with their children the Nephilim roaming the earth and causing man to be outright evil! Every person from the time of Adam and Eve has been given the opportunity to accept Jesus, even if His name was not known.
