>Jesus came only for his marked souls, whom he called his sheep--as do all masters.

>Matthew 15:24
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

>John 17:9
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.

David, like I said to you in another conversation why do you feel the need to say things so authoritively? Of course we have all had personal experiences whether we consider ourselves to be initiated or not (I don't like using that term because it can be vague and create an "us and them" barrier between people sometimes). A conversation can end really quickly if, when looking for sound reasoning, personal experiences and beliefs are substituted instead.
A Bible quote or two does not present a sound argument. As with many quotes, they are ambiguous. "Marked souls"? "Came ONLY?" Surely all spiritual figures as prominant as Jesus as well as many other less well-known came for the benefit of the whole world not just the select few. Jesus and Buddha for example are known to have had their own disciples. This is a different matter from "marked souls" whatever they may be, but I can guess what track you are on.
