WILL PEOPLE WHO NEVER HEARD OF JESUS GO TO HELL?
- WHAT HAPPEN TO PEOPLE CHOSEN TO BE SAVED
One may ask, if that is the case, why would God send someone to hell if they have never been given the opportunity to Accept Christ?
I want to emphasize, God DOES NOT send anybody to Hell. Hell was created for the Devil and his
Any human who finds and finds themselves in Hell, it's because this person has chosen his eternal path. Humans however because of sin became candidate for Hell.
God give the call to be saved, and those who responds and accept the call will evade Hell and enter Heaven; those who chose to live in sin automatically signs their tickets to Hell. When they die, they go to the place they chose.
Every human being has an Angel at birth. This Angel stays until death in most cases, but there are some humans who have no Angels and has become a dwelling house and nesting place for demons.
If a child has to become a Christian, [whether as child or adult], this would be written in Heaven and sealed with the heart of God before this person is born. Angels would be given to this soon-to-be Saint for protection. When the appointed time reached, the person would accept Christ and be saved.
More Angels would be given to this person, and they will work alongside the person's personal guardian Angel. Some of the new Angels who will be given to the believer after conversation are: “the angels of spiritual gifts”, “warrior angels”, angels of virtues.
- WHAT HAPPENS AMONG DEMONS WHEN A HUMAN DIES?
However, if the person’s name is written in the Lambs book of life, the request of the demons would be denied, and the holy Angels will carry the person's soul to Heaven.
If a person's soul is not saved, there will be no Angel at the person's death. So what happens then? Because there is no Angel with that unsaved soul, the soul will stay wandering aimlessly with no destiny, direction. Therefore, the Demons would come and take that soul and drag them to Hell and torment.
So the question is what will happen to these people who never hear the Gospel?
FATE OF GOOD PEOPLE WHO NEVER HEARD OF JESUS CHRIST
Romans 2:12, ”For as many as have sinned without law [knowledge of the word of God] shall also perish without law; and as many as have sinned within the law shall be judged by the law,”
This is saying, those who never heard the Gospel will go to Hell without condemnation of the Gospel. And those who heard the Gospel will be judged by the Gospel that they heard.
The reason a person will perish, though having never received the opportunity to hear of the Gospel, it’s because to enter Heaven, one MUST be clothed with the salvation of the Blood of Christ. Outside this blood there is no entry to Heaven.
Secondly, a person does not need the law or the Gospel to tell them that there is a God; nature speaks of God. If a person calls upon the true God, he or she will be helped by the Holy Spirit, who will lead the person to Christ, by any means. How?
Romans 1:19, “For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God himself has made it plain to them."
Vs.20, "For since the creation of the world his invisible attributes-his eternal power and divine nature-have been understood and observed by what he made, so that people are without excuse."
Vs.21, "For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him. Instead, their thoughts turned to worthless things, and their ignorant hearts were darkened". Vs.22 "Though claiming to be wise, they became fools,” Vs.23 "and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images that looked like mortal human beings, birds, four-footed animals, and reptiles".
According to scriptures, by human instinct, we are made aware of the majesty and eternal existence of God, through the testimony of creation itself. Psalms 19:1, “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the expanse proclaims His handiwork". Vs.2, “Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.”
Many people on earth have never heard the Gospel before but they knew that there is a true Creator who is omnipotent and eternal, who has displayed His awesomeness through the wonders of creation, yet, they have never received information of Jesus due to a strict anti-Christian religious community etc. The destiny of these people to go to Heaven or Hell is based upon few statements made by Jesus.
John 14:6, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: NO MAN cometh unto the Father, BUT BY ME". Also, John 10:9, “I am the door: BY ME if any man enter in, he shall be saved,” (note By Me).
Jesus The Christ is the Door, not virgin Mary or a Catholic Saints.
This means, if the person has understanding of the knowledge of God through His creation, but has never known Jesus Christ, the door of Salvation, there will be “NO” salvation for that person; for salvation comes through Jesus Christ and ONLY Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12 Romans 5:9).
That’s why Paul said in Romans 10:14 “How, then, can people call on someone they have not believed? And how can they believe in someone they have not heard about? And how can they hear without someone preaching?”
John 3:3 “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he CANNOT see the kingdom of God.” Romans 6:23 makes it clear, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST our Lord”.
Luke 13:5 says, “I tell you, No. But unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”
1Peter 4:18 “If it is hard for the righteous person to be saved, what will happen to the ungodly and sinful person?”
A person who is not washed with the blood of Christ is considered a sinner, hence he or she MUST call upon God the Creator and God will do the rest.
Some false religions worship the true God among their pagan gods without knowing it, [such as in case of the Athenians- Acts 17:23, “For as I passed by and saw the things you worship, I also found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Not knowing then whom you worship, I make Him known to you.”
However, these people received an opportunity to hear of Jesus.
WHETHER PEOPLE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR THE GOSPEL OF TRUTH OR NOT THEY CANNOT BE SAVED OUTSIDE JESUS CHRIST; ITS NOT POSSIBLE.
