What will happen
to those who never hear about Jesus?
Although the Bible
does not give us the complete answer to this question, it does tell us
that God "will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples with
equity (or fairness)" (Psalm 98:9). God will not condemn a person
for rejecting a Christ they never heard about. However, we already stand
condemned for something far more basic.
God has revealed Himself
to everyone through the creation around us and the sense of right and
wrong inside us. Each person knows enough about God that He says we are
"without excuse" (Romans 1:20). It is for this suppression,
distortion and rejection of the true knowledge of God and for the accompanying
violation of God's laws that we stand condemned.
Only by casting oneself
completely on the mercy of God, and not counting on any of one's deeds
-- religious or otherwise -- for right standing with God, can anyone possibly
be saved.
