what are we discussing then? You said EVERYONE is under the blood of Christ, whether they accept him or not, and I am refuting that statement. Is there something else we are talking about?

And then you come up with a bad example using Hitler in contrast to the hypothetical unlearned person that I used as an example.

Yes, Jesus died for all. But just because someone doesn't know anything about Him doesn't mean that that person is cut off from His glory. Hitler, on the other hand, had full knowledge but chose to go the other route. Do you see the difference here?

Perhaps I can help clear this up?

< mode theology=Christian > Jesus died for ALL. So in a sense, all are redeemed by his blood.

BUT...

Only those who avail themselves of this redemption are 'saved'. 'Redemption' and 'salvation' are not identical terms. < /mode >

Does this help?
