I rejoice that my name is written in heaven (Luke 10:20), because I trust God and what He has promised in His Holy Word.
"If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, 'Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.' " (Rom. 10:9-11)
All that matters, from a human perspective, is a good testimony about the Lord Jesus Christ -- nothing more, nothing less.
You really need to pray for your Karaite friends that they would come to a knowledge of the truth, and stop their stumbling over Jesus.
"He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." (John 3:18)

However it is YHvH who chose all who who would be chosen before the foundation of the universe. I do pray that all will come to know the Word of G-d, Who is Yah'shua.
