Knowing you are a Christian

Could we be hindering the gospel by not accepting Protestants ? Will I hinder them from accepting Christ at death 

I hope this is true:God setup Protestants to glorify Him by giving them visions to attract more people to know Him to be saved to remove the effect of orthodox who blaspheme His character by making salvation more narrow and the lack of skilled shepherds 

But as I was trying to please orthodox I was going to post the below what do you think ? Are you not offended from me preaching orthodoxy even as the only way because you agree with this post that God confirms you are being saved and maybe does visions or am I responsible for hindering the gospel especially among those who don't have much time to repent ?

I am referring to this 

"I believe I don't need to worry about Protestants if God accepts them He will let them know through answered prayer or miracles or visions but they may not have miracles outside the church because they have not sought the truth with a good heart like nathaniel who had no guile or deceit 
Jesus said an evil generation seeks after a sign. That is God does not give miracles to all but those who seek the truth because Jesus prefers us to seek Him for His sake as He said to Thomas blessed are those who believe without seeing. Thomas was excused because he was a seeker already and a disciple who had a good heart before or now but if one was never a seeker he would not have a miracle but future generations would be required to believe without seeing and He was really rebuking them. One may have a parent not even wish for a miracle and is blessed for believing without seeing but he or she did not seek if he was in the truth we don't know his or her  fate we don't judge him or her 
God did miracles in the early church in a greater level than he does through saints now because He was starting the church and Christianity and so they wouldn't be killed before the preaching. Now He performs miracles only to believers and if there is a need but most won't be given a miracle unless they are Christian already but before it was to testify the evil of a generation worse than others since they had miracles but did not respond 
Therefore as they follow Protestantism they ought to watch out to see if orthodox have truth and they may see a miracle from a saint who is like St Anthony because they have a good heart follow Christ according to their knowledge and seek to find the true church or where truth resides 
Or they should join it if they think it is true for God to confirm for them. Once they see they are regenerated through baptism they will be encouraged and seek more confirmation 

People have to follow what they think is true and willing to leave all for the truth. We are not supposed to let our worry for others stop us from obeying all of christ will but just as non Christians have to leave all for Christ so do Protestants if they have found the truth
