What does believing not reveal ?

[beloved57]

Mark 16:15-16

15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

When the True Gospel is Preached it makes manifest one of two particulars, either the ones hearing will be manifested as being saved, or manifest them which are being damned or condemned.

[FONT=Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]The Gospel reveals who is saved and who is lost and condemned, it doesn't make them so.[/FONT]

So believing not reveals ones lost condemned state before God, which means of course Christ death wasn't for them, else they could not have been condemned in the first place.

[FONT=&quot]The Gospel reveals who is saved and who is lost and condemned, it doesn't make them so.

For instance Jesus words here Jn 3:18

[/FONT]18 [FONT=Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]He that believeth on him is not condemned: [/FONT]but he that believeth not is condemned already[FONT=Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.[/FONT]

[FONT=Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]The ones not believing here makes manifest that they already had been condemned, not believing therefore is symptom of being condemned by God.

It means their sins were never charged to Christ, and God still holds their sins charged to them, and so they're condemned for them.[/FONT]

[COLOR="#006400"]Amen to #1 and #2 !

Those believing not, has nothing to do with them choosing of their own imaginary freewill not to, but reveals that they were already condemned by God for their sins against His Holy Law John 3:18 because Christ didn't die for them / give His Life for them Mat. 25:41, as He did for all His Sheep John 10:11,15. And for this reason alone, the Gospel is hid from them 2 Cor. 4:3-4. Therefore, God's Wrath abideth on them permanently John 3:36.

Rev. 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
