It means that unless the muslims believe that Jesus Christ is he.. as in God, they will die in their sins.
John 8: 23And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. 24I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
John 8: 54Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God: 55Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying. 56Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. 57Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 58Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. 59Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
The muslims keep forgetting the reason why the Jews crucified Him, but becaase of the lie muslims are giving that the Bible and the Gospel have been corrupted, they do not want to see that truth that He was crucified for the very same reason why they do not believe....He is God.
Those muslims seeking the truth, God the Father will draw them unto the Son so that they may find the joy of salvation in why Jesus is the Good News and the Son of God because God provided the ONLY Way back to Himself and that is through Himself. Only God Our Creator can become God Our Redeemer.
This leads to the glory of God the Father through Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
One can hope that the Quran will be tossed behind them as another gospel in favour of the True Gospel of Jesus Christ showing God's love for us and His plan for salvation which is why Jesus Christ is the Good News to man.
A divided hope is an insecure hope and thereby lacking the necessary assurance for that singular hope to be hope.
Let nothing divide your hope in Jesus. Colossians 1:20-23
