[QUOTE="TLK Valentine, post: 76540599, member: 306134"] And it could be that He chose not to explain it to them just as He chose not to explain it to us. Consider the following possibility: On the other side of the galaxy is an inhabited planet called "Snorflex" (Actually, its true name is unpronouncable, as Snorflexians have four mouths and eight tongues, but "Snorflex" will do). Now, assuming that God loves [B][I]all[/I][/B] His children, it stands to reason that He loves the Snorflexians as much as he loves us: no more, no less. So just as He sent His only begotten Son to us, He sent Him to the Snorflexians as well. And just as He came to us fully divine and fully human, He was there, fully divine, and fully Snorflexian. So "Jesus Christ," under a Snorflexian name (which would give you a hernia if you tried to pronounce it) appeared and ministered to the Snorflexians as one of them, reconciling them with God the Father. Why not? And while we're at it, since God is in no way bound by the limits of time or space, Jesus could have walked among the Snorflexians at the exact same time he was ministering in ancient Israel... After all, as miracles go, how hard is it to be in two places at once? And why don't we know any of this? Because what happens with the Snorflexians has [B][I]no[/I][/B] impact whatsoever on our salvation... and vice versa. Why burden us with unnecessary things? And that applies to humans and Snorflexians alike, right? [/QUOTE]
