My question is why do people think that God is dealing with tribes, or groups, or nations right now? He is clearly dealing with individuals. NOT groups. The RCC claims salvation can be found only in the Catholic Church. What do they think? That they are going to be bussed into heaven and stand as a group before God under the RCC banner? Pffffttt. I’m sure they find great comfort in numbers, believing God sees them that way. But they could not be more wrong. He will again deal with nations, as soon as Israel’s blindness is removed and She begins her long trek back to His original plan for Her. A kingdom of priests and a blessing to all nations. Until that time though, it is about each individual accepting the finished work of Christ for his salvation.
The big shocker for so many of them is going to come when so many people turn up missing.
