actually, you only answered the central question once and once only.
The question basically was:

why did he not use his powers to send his message to everyone? ( while they are alive in this world, obviously )

all but one of y , ...” ( your quote ) ) -can you list them and say which one of my quotes contain them?

sigh, what is it about,

If you have any questions with regard to the actual content of the Bible Ill be happy to
answer, otherwise stop wasting my time

that yet evades you?

Is it the wording? The syntax? Perhaps its an ambiguous statement? Perhaps its
verbose? Ill conceived? couched in technical terminology, what is it about this
statement that you are having difficulty with?

Here is a Biblical verse at last, i think it highlights in a rather direct way, these type
of questions and counsels a Christian on how he should conduct himself with a view to them,

(2 Timothy 2:23-24) . . .Further, turn down foolish and ignorant questionings,
knowing they produce fights.  But a slave of the Lord does not need to fight. . .

I myself have no issue with the fact that the message was revealed gradually, its
not a problem for me, first through a nation and individuals within that nation, then
throughout the earth, i repeat, i have no issues, no problems, no fences are facing.

Its not a problem for me that God could have done certain things, its not a problem
that simply because he could have revealed the message to everyone but didn't
instead overlooking certain epochs of history, no issues, no problems, no fences
facing.

I have no issue with the fact that those who did not hear or have as yet not heard
the message will be resurrected and given the opportunity to do so, its not a
problem for me, i have no issues with it, no fences are facing.

It appears to me, that contrary to your assertions these things are problematic for
me, in reality, i have no issues with them, on the contrary, it appears that the issues
lie with you.

“...I myself have no issue with the fact that the message was revealed gradually,...”

neither the question nor the 'problem' has anything to do with the “message was revealed gradually” .

“... its not a problem that simply because he could have revealed the message to everyone but didn't ...”

how can it not be a problem if there is no good explanation of why he didn't do this when the Bible message was supposed to be for everyone and he had the means to give it to everyone but didn't? Why didn't he? That's the logical inconsistency here.

“...I have no issue with the fact that those who did not hear or have as yet not heard
the message will be resurrected and given the opportunity to do so...”

neither the question nor the 'problem' is about people being “ resurrected and given the opportunity to do so”.
Why didn't he give only some but not other people the message before they were ( or will? -not sure if this is supposed to be past or future tense ) supposed to be “resurrected”? Why the apparently arbitrary discrimination between different people?
Does it supposed to matter if a person hears his message before he dies or not? -you still haven't answered that question -I wonder why.

“...It appears to me, that contrary to your assertions these things are problematic for
me, ...”

I didn't assert that the question is problematic specifically for you but, rather, is an unsolved problem ( in the objective logical sense and only generally for all those that take the literal word of the Bible to be true ) . If you do not perceive it to be an unsolved problem then that still doesn't change the fact that it is an unsolved problem ( for Christian fundamentalists; for most other people like myself, the solution is simply he could not give the message to everyone and so cannot even represent a real problem ) for here we have a question here that nobody who is a Christian fundamentalist can apparently give a satisfactory answer to; at least not so far in this thread.
