Universal opportunity

Universal opportunity, in Christian theology, describes the belief that God offers opportunities for salvation to all human beings.

These opportunities can consist of human evangelists, the Bible, and churches. Believers in universal opportunity also theorize that God may offer supernatural opportunities, such as visions or dreams, to those who fail to encounter ordinary opportunities. Biblical examples include the Ethiopian eunuch (divinely arranged evangelist) and Cornelius the Centurion (angel) in Acts 8 and 10, respectively.

Under the fate of the unlearned debate, universal opportunity (or God Does All He Can Do) is the exclusivist view.

Two vital points specify universal opportunity:
 * God is all-powerful and does not require man's intercession, but chooses to use them when He wills.
 * The Bible teaches that God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but instead desires that all men turn from their evil ways and be saved. If a person is open to believing in Christ, then God will find a way to make an opportunity for salvation available, through whatever means necessary.
