I believe that Jesus died for the sins of the whole world and is the Savior of all men, but that we have to believe to have access to that grace.
Do you want scripture references?

Then you don't believe the Gospel ! Those Christ died for are made righteous Rom 5:19 !

Trouble is that the kingdom you regulate to peter's message, which is earthly, contradicts where Jesus said the kingdom of God was located Luke 17:20-21.

But it takes faith to access that grace.
Romans 5:2 through whom we have gained access by faithinto this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God.

It's called blasphemy against the Holy Ghost (Matthew 12:31 KJV)and it was Saul, who was before a blasphemer (1 Timothy 1:13 KJV) and could not have been forgiven under kingdom of heaven doctrine. You have trouble following...

It says all things which are written in the book of the law!
I am secure in the fact that you believe you know God's ways above any other human being. I accuse you of human hypocrisy and with not having the background to do a fearless and searching moral inventory of yourself.
Nothing false about that.

It doesn't take Faith to make the ones Christ died for Righteous Rom 5:19 ! It took only His obedience!

That is not the gospel of Christ that Paul declared in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV that is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth (Romans 1:16 KJV). You are lost as you believe not (2 Corinthians 4:3-4 KJV).
It certainly isn't all written to us. The question was and is, Where can you find that which is written directly TO you?
Our understanding comes from God when we consider what Paul says (2 Timothy 2:7 KJV).

Refusing to acknowledge to whom the Lord was sent while on earth is rebellion against 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV. In your refusal to grow up, you will continue to be tossed to and fro (Ephesians 4:14 KJV).

Paul is the apostle of the Gentiles (Romans 11:13 KJV) given the dispensation of the grace of God to usward ("you Gentiles" Ephesians 3:1-6 KJV).

We have to have faith. When we come to God we have to have faith.
Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
Our faith comes from HEARING the word, see Romans 10:17. From hearing the word and being TAUGHT, Colossians 1:5, 7. From continuing in what we have been CONVINCED of, see 2 Timothy 3:14, and being PERSUADED, 2 Corinthians 5:11.

Yes, you are!
That which was spoken since the world began (Acts 3:21 KJV) is not the same as that which was kept secret since the world began (Romans 16:25 KJV)!

The Bible is for all. It was first for the Jew, and then to us all.
