The Word was not meant for everyone. It was to a specific group and when Jesus said to a crowd "Ye are the light of the world," the crowd he was talking to was *not* gentiles. It was Jews. The only times that Jesus acknowledged being the messiah was when he was talking to those of mixed bloodlines and he specifically said to a canaanite woman (a gentile) that he had come for the house of Israel. He granted her wish after she showed faith, but notice he does it in a very dismissive way.
The christians have little power in their words because they lack knowledge and understanding. They try to force a false doctrine onto others and thus have created not only a huge mess, but have in fact now started engaging in very scary and sick manifestations of what they perceive as G-d, but is nothing more than an image of the god in their minds.
G-d should never be sought for what He can bring to you. In fact, G-d can NOT be found by those He is not calling to Him. There is a purpose for His calling. Anyone who would try to force you to believe a certain way has no understanding of G-d's character. Anyone who worships a man is not worshipping G-d.
Do not be deceived by false doctrines. They are subtle and they offer much, but as is becoming evident, it takes so much from people and leaves them empty, broken, and resentful. YOU were NOT meant to live life that way.
