As it says in Hebrews 9:27, "it is appointed for men to die once" but that doesn't mean they can't live again. Our merciful God truly desires everyone ever born to be given the chance to truly know Him and have the chance to receive eternal life. We are told in 1 Timothy 2:3 that we should pray "for all men" because God wants us to because He "desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth" (vs 4). For those God has called today in this age, judgment has already begun (1 Peter 4:17) because we know the truth. For those whose minds haven't yet been opened, that judgment will come later once they have been give the truth "in due time" (2 Timothy 2:6).
Hi Ursula. We are, in fact, weak when God calls us (1 Corinthians 1:27) but we are not to stay that way. God will not give us more than we can handle and leave us helpless (1 Corinthians 10:13). When we are in those moments of weakness, of doubt, of fear, we have to remember to turn to God and ask Him to give us the strength we need. "He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength" (Isaiah 40:29).
