Christianity claims Jesus came to save the world and that Jesus died for the sins of the world. The doctrine that Jesus was sent to save the world is derived from John 3:16. But a closer look at the gospels proves that not all will be saved and that Jesus does not save everyone 1. Jesus was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel. 2. Jesus told his disciples “do not go to the gentiles”. 3. This is further proven in the interaction between Jesus and the Canaanite woman. 4. Jesus also prevented certain people from understanding him and finding forgiveness. and 5. Jesus said he would reject many of his own followers saying “depart from me I never knew you, “. This is proof that John 3:16 does not hold true. Jesus does not save everyone.
