Martha: You should know better than that. I'm not saying that God is UNABLE to do anything that He wants to do. Look, God has HIS OWN WAY OF DOING THINGS and we don't tell Him how to do it. He sends whomever he will. He sent the twelve plus Paul and those designated by the apostles to the whole world in a time when there was no modern travel or modern communications as we have today. Why didn't he send thousands, especially then when travel and communications were different than they are today? Because that was not His plan.He opened the understanding of the twelve and gave Paul his doctrine by revelation. Unless God opens our understanding there's no possible way that we can understand the scripture. People even go wrong with "clear" scripture when leaning to their own understanding without the understanding given by God. Let's just be honest, everyone preaching today does not have the understanding given by God. Like the Bererans, I study to see if the things that's preached are so.
You said that no one has preached truth before or after Bishop Johnson.
According to you only Bishop Johnson's faithful members are going to heaven. You can't possibly believe that God is that small.

Martha: I am not the judge of who's going to heaven or hell, so it's nothing according to me but according to the judgment of God. Those who have heard Bishop Johnson are going to be responsible for having heard the truth and will be accountable to God for it. What of those who have not heard? What of those who never heard the original twelve plus Paul who died in the first century and on up until the time Bishop Johnson started preaching truth? All those people will be judged according to what they did know of God. But it's God who judges The book of revelations tells us of the judgements of God and who will appear where in the judgement. It's not in sequence and not easily understood. But there is a place where everyone will appear to be judged according to the judgments of God. Not everyone appears in the same place. This gives us some idea of how God will separate those who knew and those who knew not. I don't see God as small at all.
