He predicted it. He said (Matt 7:14) only a few go to Heaven. I don’t have any idea what percentage of the world’s population will go to Hell, but I will make a wild guess, and say about 90%. That’s pretty bad, but He provided a way. Most people reject it.

If Christ came to Earth to redeem mankind, and you say He was only 10% sucesful, ......what was the point????

What was the point of what bro? Why did Jesus bother to die on a cross, knowing that the vast majority of the people would choose to go to Hell, or are you asking if it is God's fault that all these people choose Hell over Heaven?
Remember, God wiped out the entire population of the world, except for 8 people. At the time, there could have been up to 200,000,000 people on the earth. I am pretty sure, but not 100% sure, that every single solitary one of them went to Hell.
Don't forget, when the children of Israel moved into different areas, God ordered the killing of every man, woman and child. If you don't think that is fair, maybe you should tell that to the Lord. I am sure He would like to explain it to you. Not.

Matthew 7:14 KJV
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

If Christ came to Earth to redeem mankind, . . .

He did, and does, but (unless one is a babe who cannot understand), not without conviction, confession, and repentant faith in Jesus alone before your soul parts from your body. After that, no. It's quid pro quo, pal.

Got anything to confess?
