If Jesus was coming to save us, why did god only make him visible in the middle east? What about the rest of the world. There where thriving civilizations all around the globe during his time on earth. Why didn't he go to South America or China? If god sent him to save us, didn't he think that those people where worth saving? It doesn't make any sense to me.

Because in ancient history,Middle East is the heart of the World!And it is the three-way crossroad of Asiaa,Europe and Africa (because in that time,they didn't know Americas or Oceania)

Jesus was a man "just like us" the Bible says. This means he walked or rode a donkey or took a boat to get around. He never traveled more than 150 miles during his 3-year ministry.
If you mean - why didn't he miraculously appear everywhere, there is not room here to explain it. Suffice to say, His mission was to the people of Israel until his death and resurrection. He said so Himself. After that, His disciples took his message to the world (most were killed for doing so by the way).
Perhaps if you spent some time studying this issue further you might be able to settle this to your satisfaction. This is not to demean your question. You seem like an inquisitive person who truly wants to know the truth.

Because salvation was first to be offered to the Jews. It is through them that we have salvation. I am not talking about the work of Jesus so every person has the chance to get saved and those who accept Christ become saved.

Jesus came to the Jewish people and not to the Gentiles. Jesus sent Paul to the Gentiles. Jesus wanted His people the Jews to teach the whole world about Him, but they rejected Him. Jesus went to the cross of Calvary for all of us.

I suggest you insist on scriptural references for this. Otherwise, people will say anything they think, which they are entitled to do. However opinion does not carry the weight or authority of scripture and is merely conjecture.

Because at that time Jews were Gods people.The rest of the world were considered infidels.

He told His disciples to go into all the world and preach the good news. They did and continue to do just that!
