Is Jesus a gift offered to everyone?

My Friend and fellow IV intern at CU: Ivanna and I were having this discussion and struggling through the issue of people in the past and present that have not heard of Jesus or truly known him in this life. Do all people get a chance to know and choose Jesus or not?

We obviously don't know and God this is all in your sovereignty and mystery. 

But we put together our understanding of some scripture and what God says about all people.

      This is good, and pleases God our Savior, ⁴ who wants all people to be saved and to come to a

       knowledge of the truth.

       1 Tim 2:4

Everyone

1)      Lives  

^{Then the Lord God formed a man[c] from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.}

^{Genesis 2:7}

2)      Dies

Everyone will die someday. Death comes to godly and sinful people alike.

^{Ecclesiastes 9:2}

3)      Is Resurrected after the first physical death

a)      Some in the first resurrection

They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years. ⁵ (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection. 

Revelation 20: 4-5

            b)      But all stand before the throne: the dead alive!

And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. 

Revelation 20:12

4)      Will bow on their knees to Jesus

Who, being in very nature^[a] God,
    did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
⁷ rather, he made himself nothing
    by taking the very nature^[b] of a servant,
    being made in human likeness.
⁸ And being found in appearance as a man,
    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death—
        even death on a cross!

⁹ Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
    and gave him the name that is above every name,
¹⁰ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
¹¹ and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.

 Philippians 2:6-11 NIV

5)      Faces Judgement to Life or Death

            a)      To the Lake of Fire

Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. ¹⁵ Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.

^{Revelation 20:14}

             

            b)      No Judgement but Eternal Life!

God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. ¹² Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

1 John 5:11

My understanding is that God has given everyone all of this. For in earth in creation and the gospel all will know Christ in part. In the end at the resurrection all will know absolutely and every knee bow in to Jesus for Jesus Christ is the Son of God, Savior and Lord. So all people are given this gift and this is our choice eternally: to choose the second death by choosing self and rejecting our Lord or to submit our hearts and eternity to Christ and live forever!

Lord please reveal to our hearts and minds what is true and what is not of you. 

Lord we love and submit to you. 

You are victorious for it is done!

Amen
