Jesus was "serving his parents" upto the age of 30 while thousands died unsaved ?

Question

If he was too busy honoring his parents (upto the age of 30) to save hundreds if not thousands of “lost souls” from going to hellfire than we better reconsider the urgency of the Christian message.

It looks as though Jesus was actually a Prophet.... nothing more and nothing less.

Answer 1

It looks as though you think you are wiser than God,
and still lost in your sins.

Answer 2

Jesus knows how to save the lost. When he was on earth he couldn't be everywhere at once and he only did exactly what God the Father told him too. He wasn't here doing his own thing. He knows how to judge perfectly and he won't let anyone automatically go to hell because they don't know anything about him. He is too wise and too good for that. Many people today die without knowing anything about God but what is in their hearts is judged and determines where they will go after death.

I believe God knows just what to do to save every single human being and he will accomplish just that! It is what he wants and I can't see Almighty God not getting what he wants. He is more loving and kind than we give him credit for. The bible says he is even kind to the evil, so imagine how much more kind he will be to us when we die.

Answer 3

And how many people have you saved? Because we know that Jesus did go to preach to those in Paradise during that period of time from death to resurrection ( 2nd Peter) it is a certainty that all there who had died before hearing of Him were able to do so. You really should be careful about critizing the methods of the Heavenly Father.

Answer 4

Why would there have been an urgency over 30 years, when man had lived in sin for thousands?

"In the fullness of time I will send my son" - everything has a purpose.

There was salvation before Christ, in the law. When Jesus died on the cross, he descended into hell and took those who were saved up to heaven with him.

Answer 5

Salvation has always been about belief. Righteousness was reckoned to Abraham NOT because he did lots of good things, BUT rather because he believed.

Christ made a way for all, including those before Him to be saved through His sacrifice and subsequent resurrection. For us now, we believe in Jesus Christ as Lord, and we are saved.

No where in the Bible does it suggest that all those who came before Christ will not be saved.

Answer 6

The ones that lived before Christ, how are they harvested? The same manner many will be harvested. First, sow the Word of God.

I Pet.3:18-19 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the Just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 19 By which also He went and preached unto the spirits in prison;

I Pet.4:6 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.

Good news the gospel preached to them also, the spirits in prison, those in bondage to sin.

Study to show thyself approved.

Answer 7

The Silent Years, better known as the period of time in Jesus's life containing his childhood and young adult years, was the preparation of Jesus so that he would be able to complete the task set before him. After he had been tested and tried in all ways, He began his ministry.

Answer 8

The could not have been saved until he died and was ressurected anyway. People who died prior to that were either waiting in paradise or in hell according the the righteousness or lack of in their life. Next time atleast try to produce a decent statement.

Answer 9

Techniquely the jewish law was in effect up until Jesus' death on the cross...People knew of Judaism and could have saved themselves by believing it

Answer 10

How foolish is your statement,the sacrifice of Christ reached into the past, touched the present and also the future salvation of the world.
