What happens to people who never hear the good news of Jesus? Are they condemned in the same way? In this video, we provide 4 thoughts to bear in mind while answering this question.
@@Kooczsi you don’t and that’s why god gave Jesus. I don’t think anyone who sins with only one human being who didn’t even live a full life living sinless.
This is most certainly an answered prayer, for I have watched almost all the other videos about “Those who have never heard” on RU-vid. Thank you for allowing God to work through you. Please be encouraged to continue to proclaim the Gospel!
Most Christians should understand that Catholic , Jews, and orthodox should not be converted. What they should do is study and reach those who are not. Because good acts past through nation not testimony.
Jesus is King! 👑🩵💕🦋💕🩵 Jesus died on the cross for our sins and rose from the dead on the third day. Repent and believe in him as your Lord and Savior and you will be saved! God bless! 🩵💕🦋💕🩵 💕🌸🌺Romans 10:9-11 KJV 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 🌺🌸💕❤❤❤
And it’s a wrong answer. I’m not saying it’s not a FAIR answer considering how we as humans see fairness. Nobody wants Jesus. Whether they hear about Him or not. We are born sinful and God Hating. You being able to believe in Jesus is a Work of the Holy Spirit. He saves all those who’s names were written in the Lambs book of life since the beginning of time. There is no way you have an all powerful Sovereign that lives outside of time and space -and He would be “winging” any of this. Gods Devine Right to Elect will not be hindered.
I believe that God will do everything to save anyone, even those who never heard the Gospel. Some may be sent to tell the Gospel to them, or by having this thought that this is not all to life and that there is greater purpose, but I know that God will be just to all and even thought it's a great thought, I rest in the truth that He has given all a fair chance to eternal life.
"that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Philippians 2:10-11 KJV “And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Acts 2:21 KJV
God knows the fate of everyone, he gives a sign and message to all, but many are born as unclean vessels, and God already knows they will not turn to him, so he gives them over to delusion, God knew everything before it began.
@@eltonron1558 1st Peter 3:18-20 actually. It says directly that after Jesus died, he preached to the spirits in prison from the times before Jesus was on earth (it only mentions directly about the people who were around in the time of Noah, but I don't see why God would speak only to them and not all the others who died before Jesus was born).
@@joey.99 “for the wages of sin is death” Romans 6:23 We as humans are inherently sinful, while our God is a loving God he is a just one as well We deserve to go to hell for our sin but God’s love provides a way for us to be with him through his son Jesus Christ I hope you will let him into your heart have a great day
@@Fish_tank75 I don't let things in my heart besides blood to keep my organs alive. I use my brain to make choices and to form my beliefs, not my heart
@@brayanxd4547 Oh yes because it’s TOTALLY a decision whether or not I’m gullible enough to be convinced something is true therefore heaven, or not; therefore hell…
@@Doom0728 You do not choose if you go to heaven or hell. EVERYONE is going to hell, because everyone sinned. BUT Jesus, by dying for us, gave us the grace, and every soul that believes that He died for us will be saved, and will flee from the path that ends up in hell.
“Perish” means to be lost, not burn forever in a doom realm. Paul is explaining how people who live by the law will be judged by it, and those who believe in Jesus will not be judged because the real God does not judge.
Jesus is God the Father is God the Holy Spirit is God… the Bible clearly teaches this and that He is the judge and justifier of His elect. Christian’s are judged and then justified by Christ.
Galatians 3:21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. 3:22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
Galatians 3:6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 3:7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 3:9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
Romans 2:16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel. 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. 3:9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. 3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 3:23For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
when I was a baby follower, I used to say that I will fully believe and share when I SEE Him. one day I was in a boat and were where about to go through rapids, I had my phone on me so I was scared I would tip over and ruin it, I had the urge to pray for it, and I did. everyone around me tipped over but I didn't. it may have been small, but it changed my life.
Remember, only those who have needed miracles in their life, can appreciate other miracles. Think of the Hebrews in the Wilderness! Cooling cloud by day; heating fire at night; a rock mountain that followed them providing waters for millions, and their herds; 10 miracles which brought the world's superpower to its knees; etc. It did not change them, most perished still in the Wilderness, could not enter the promised land. They could not embrace these miracles and change their hearts.
Ah, yes, sure. God prevented your phone from falling into water. How nice of him. Good that he intervenes with the real world for such trivialities, instead of saving a couple starving children, or some with cancer, or heck, some being rapes by catholic priests right now. If such a god existed, it would utterly disgust me. Even if i could believe in such a being, it would not be worth worshipping.

I think what gets people into trouble is when they turn their backs on God. I know people who refuse to hear the truth and fully and completely reject God.
@@AmyMichelleMosier I feel that is just doubt. To me, I think blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is when a person knows the truth and understands the ways of God but refuse truth and teach others to be enemies of God. The person knows what they are talking about but still declared hate of God and seeks to spread that hate to others. Those that refuse to hear the truth may later turn and desire truth at some point. And then they can be saved. That is my opinion.
But ppl really haven't heard the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Islam is the truth, Judaism is the truth, Christianity is the truth, Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism etc are all true. So pick one and you have the truth. This also is to say that there are many Gods. Will the real God please stand up. But not all stand at the same time. Money is most ppl gods. Money talks.
I didn’t have anyone evangelize or preach to me So #1 is factual, the conversation I had with God started with me randomly questioning Folklore because I couldn’t fathom the idea that we just came up with Gods and stuff like that and that it’s called Folklore because it’s stories long forgotten. Which made me question how many gods exist and how their had to be a God who made them. Then I started having existential crisis questions (that God graciously answered) Which eventually lead me to asking the question that made him pull me in. “Did God abandon us? Or did we abandon God”
Proverbs 3:5 KJV [5] Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. So many people for some reason think that they can figure it out by thinking..
@@Oozy9Millimeetah “Then I started having Existential Crisis questions (That God graciously answered)” Matthew 7:7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Seek and you shall find. I was seeking and I found him, I was asking and it was given to me, I was knocking and he answered. “Which lead me to asking the question that made HIM PULL ME IN.” If I have no other source other than to lean on my own understanding then what else can I do? How would I have been able to lean on the LORD if I haven’t yet come into his presence? If you take time to understand what I said After God pulled me in I realized I only found him because he was answering the questions I was asking myself. (Which is me leaning on him after growing in my relationship) That verse is for people that try to interpret scripture in their own understanding instead of asking the Holy Spirit for revelation and to help you understand. It’s also for worldly wisdom and for the prideful who believe then cannot be taught anything, if for those who are wise in their own eyes.
What a powerful testimoy! That last question is something we must all ask at some point in our lives. The answer to it changes lives. Thanks for sharing!
@@InvasionAnimation Eh, when I a little kid like 4 I went to church with my grandma, but never really stayed long, cause life honestly started hitting at 5 And my mom took us back to Miami, tbh I can’t really even remember much of my childhood outside of certain events. But from 5-23 I didn’t go to church, didn’t talk about God or Christ, was willfully living a sinful life while at the same time always questioning life as well cause I knew we weren’t living right (Mankind) so I ended up developing a nihilistic point of view with life and just felt like everything was meaningless. Sometimes people would talk about God but it’d be shallow stuff like “I believe in God” but they never brought up Christ or anything important of the Gospel but I’d just think “That’s Good for them” I did go to church at 30th AG in the Army but that was just so I could skip out on training or whatever so I’d just sleep during the sermons. Was once even handed a Bible before I left for the Army but I honestly forgot all about it. (I ended up leaving it at a friends house, I know cause we ended up finding Christ at the same time) But honestly God was most likely calling me from Back then and I was ignoring it due to ignorance and then he spoke to me in a way I’d understand.
I am so very blessed, i am from Nigeria and i believe that even though some people or place have not been reached with the gospel God in his mercy still reaches out to them in his own way, so you are very right 👍, thank you for this information i love you in Jesus mighty name amen.
Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ, or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and, moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience, those also may achieve eternal salvation.
Romans 3 specifically states that there are none who seek for God. Romans 8 speaks about how men are at enmity with God, unable to subject themselves to God's law. So we must ask the natural questions: 1) What is the Holy Spirit, through Paul, trying to communicate with these passages? 2) Why, if these statements are true, do we find people "seeking" in the church?
I hope things get better for you. I don't know your situation but I've gotten through a lot of bad situations myself. It will get better, just remember that you are loved no matter what. I will be praying for you.

5:30 I totally agree with this theory. My mom was Wiccan and she worshipped God and His creations on earth. She was a Christlike woman, and when she was passing away she asked for last rites. Wiccans don't have last rites but Christians do. I think she saw Jesus in her final days. Or if not her final days then definitely in Heaven. And I know shes in Heaven because she and the Holy Spirit have sent me signs and dreams telling me that she is okay. For example, on the day she died the gloomy sky parted like curtains and there was the brightest rainbow I'd ever seen. My godsister who lived several states away also saw a bright rainbow at the same time I did. God is good ❤
GOD IS SO GOOD to me!!!! The devil has me blinded so that I can’t see it and I’m also missing joy, peace, love in my life Please PRAY for me Brothers and Sisters In Christ. Thank you GOD Bless you
I love your teachings, these questions were on my heart all day and then you go and post this video. I was literally wondering how would one go spread the gospel in a cannibal village without being used as dinner and the language barrier. Thank you so much❤
Cannibalism is often sensationalized; in truth, no known society has ever randomly killed and eaten people that just came by in peace. Unless they were on the absolute brink of starvation, or they saw you as an enemy worthy of death for other reasons, you would be in no danger of getting eaten. The language barrier is definitely a real problem though!
Don't worry about the far distant cannibals, when most of our churches are only making their members twice the child of hell - with their hard heart, preaching

I dont usually comment but God used you for my brother. My brother was telling me that he had doubts and this was one question that he wanted to have someone explain it to him. We literally talked about this and I didnt even pray about it. Just told him that God would provide an answer if he wanted. This happened today aswell.

I predicted that something would question me about what happens if people don't know the word of God, or never heard of God but this is an amazing video! Whenever I see your videos, it helps me think about how God is faithful and the many ways he is capable of doing the work he provides and is still here to this day to give us education and his wordings around and preach and show us where the way to go. And blessed are those who still help other people who don't know the word of God but still, helping the poor and the needy, and for those who are lost. there's still hope and faith around where God has plans for everyone to be redeemed and rejuvenated. And I Believe depends on everyone or some the majority who want to hear the word of god.

This is so true, and God can also reveal himself and Or Jesus in dreams, visions, or some kind of supernatural experience. Also through people, nature, material or in their spirit when God is speaking to them. Great video :) Your also correct that God will only Judge you for what you know, it dont matter if you know the WHOLE bible (Etc..), if you only heard the name Jesus and what He did for you, and you got saved and passed on, that is all you will be judged on, and that is all God needed to reveal to you in that moment while you had breath in your lungs. Not everyone will know or understand the bible all at once, and there are people around the world that have only been given the New testament, and economic version of the bible, or pocket size bibles where they only have a couple of books in them. It doesnt matter to God, He just cares if you acknowledge him, then He will reveal Christ, then if your blessed, you will have some written material about Jesus, you will only be Judged by what you knew about God and his laws.. plus even if you didnt have a bible, God speaks to our conscious, so we can know what is right or wrong and try to follow the better path, and if you make a mistake, you get back up and try again, and keep praying for clarity, that is all God requires from you is to Try and to Seek him, and He will lead you, He will help you, He will grow you, He will take you from glory to glory, strength to Strength, faith to faith... everything begins with a seed in the ground, and God waters that seed, and it takes time to grow, so let us be patient with ourselves and with others who do not know God yet or are New in the walk :-))) Amen Ps: Jesus is coming soon people... For those who do not know, We are living in the book of Revelation, and the 2nd seal has broken, the Seal of WAR, please get right with God while you can, seek Jesus, follow him, and dont take theMARK... talk to him, He will guide you in all your ways :)
thank you so much for this, I've been asking people left and right about this question for so long. I believe God speaks to people and reveals himself to people whose ears have never heard His wonderful name!
If Jesus is the only way that means Jesus is the only way. If you believe you live, if you don't you not. Simple is that and this is christal clear. Only Jesus.

as bad as it sounds, it comes down to how you look and act. You need to be presentable for people to want to stay around you. God will help you with things outside of your control, but he isn't a fix everything button. There are some things you have to work on yourself.

I know I’m saved but we should be aware of God’s holiness and word. Even though we are saved, we are still going to be judged. God is going to judge me on my sins I struggled to fight and am still fighting. I’m afraid of that 😭
1 John 4:18 reads, “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.” The ultimate punishment or fear is separation from God. Thankfully, for those who believe in Jesus, that fear has passed.
@@SkegeeAce We’re still going to be judged on what we did. And according to Jesus, how we live here will determine what we received in heaven. God is just, remember?
@@itstoasty7089 Yes, but what is there to *fear*? We will be blessed to just be a doorkeeper in the house of our God, let alone to gain entry as sons and daughters. He will wipe every tear from our eyes and we shall enjoy Him forever.

@@SkegeeAce You’re right, I haven’t thought of it that way….thank you so much my sister. I’m still want to rack up a good resume for our Lord, he’s gonna go over it.
It's a very interesting discussion. I personally wonder if some of these "never hearers" meet Jesus at the judgement and are given a choice to accept Him as Lord or not. If they say yes, perhaps that saves them. If NOT, however, if they keep believing in their false gods or simply refuse to repent/submit, then they are sadly judged and thrown into Hell similar to other unbelievers. It's unfortunate, but I definitely feel there would be many pagans in history (and now) among others who would scoff at Jesus even with Him on the throne in glory in front of them. "Who are you? You're not the god I serve." At that point, they will have mocked God and His plan for salvation, in doing so having sealed their own damnation. There's a reason C.S. Lewis called pride "The Great Sin". It's possibly the oldest and most dangerous sin man can ever commit.
@@thunderbird1921 that’s a thought that I’ve been pondering too. I’m not orthodox but some of my friends who are orthodox tell me that that’s more or less what they believe. God doesn’t judge you for a sin you do not commit and there are areas of the world that the gospel will not be spread to in our lifetimes so I kind of like that theological theory.
@@thunderbird1921no, they will not be given that choice after death. And even if they were, they would still not choose him. No one in an unregenerate state will ever choose God, this is basic Biblical doctrine. You need to touch up my friend.

No, of course not, because you recognize the absurdity of that statement. The building is evidence of the builder, like a painting is evidence of a painter, like creation is evidence of a creator. You want more evidence than even that? I can give you a short essay on it.
Brothers in Christ can u please make a video on repture . Among the Christian there are some who believe in rapture and some who don't believe in Rapture. Thank u
I would say that , that everyone is guilty of sin And the punishment for sins is hell The only way for someone to not go to hell is if the trust in God to save them .
@@Doom0728Well, have you ever lied? Even as a child? Have you ever looked upon someone with lustful intent that isn’t your wife/husband, that is adultery of the heart. Have you ever hit or punched someone outside of self defence? Have you ever used the Lord’s name in vain, such as “oh my goodness” without the goodness? That’s blasphemy. All of them are sins which will hurt the relationship between you and God, therefore we must repent of our sins so that they may be forgiven, God will forgive all sins no matter how bad you might think they are if you truly seek forgiveness.
@@Doom0728😂 “All have sinned and fallen short…”. You’ve lied? Stolen something? Looked with lust? Been envious or coveted something that wasn’t yours? Have you been angry without good cause? Have you ever hated anyone? Saying yes to any of these makes you a sinner, LIKE EVERYONE ELSE on earth. These actions separate us from God, so Jesus came to fix that separation. He came to reconcile man to God, so we could live in His presence forever. Choosing to reject Jesus would be a clear statement that you don’t want to be in God’s presence, so you choose where God is NOT. Which is hell.
Thought 2: God guided Cornelius the Gentile to Peter to hear the gospel message in Acts 10. Those that follow God's direction will receive greater revelation.
Jesus will come when we have all received this seed (I believe that almost everyone has received it) now we only have to wait for Dad to arrive yay!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you, Father. Thanks for your videos. Blessings from Spain. This is my favorite YouTUBE channel. PD: We have to spread the gospel...
@@JesusIsKing844I think he is referring to the weird way he called Jesus, "daddy", which could be taken in an inappropriate context given the way it was said. I too was uncomfortable reading it.
@@JesusIsKing844Even ignoring the perverted way the term was distorted in modern society to come off that way in that context, it's still very weird. The only people who really get away with calling anyone "daddy" as an adult are women talking to their biological father in a very informal family setting or when they want something. It's weird to be that informal referring to the creator of the universe who deserves more respect than we could ever offer any human. You wouldn't introduce your own father to your friends as "daddy" as a grown adult, so why would you refer to God as "daddy" when talking about him online to strangers?
@@sonniepronounceds-au-ni9287what if this person is naive and innocent and meant nothing bad? Many adults still think like a child in this world because they have brain damage or autism
Yep. The problem is that no one seeks for God. Man in his natural state hates God. That's why we must first be regenerated by the spirit. And the means God uses to accomplish that (with his elect), is the hearing of the gospel.
@@forbes7410this is 100% false, and a heretical view. Christ did not pay for the sins of everyone, he paid for the sins of HIS OWN who were given to him by the Father. Nowhere in Scripture supports what you just said. This is modern American gospel nonsense, I pray you do not harden your heart but see the truth. Read God's word, these things are not hidden, unless we have a darkened mind.
@@matthewrease2376 and yeah i agree, "no one seeks God..." -Romans 3. But God can still draw us by His Spirit even if we haven't intellectually heard the Gospel like in Acts 10 and Hebrews 11.
@@LukeBowman08 perhaps, though I'm more inclined to interpret Acts 10 as someone who still knew about Christ, or found out. Also, in the Old Testament "angel of God/Yahweh" occasionally referred to the preincarnate Christ. And while that probably isn't the case here, as I'm not aware of Christ being presented in that way in the NT after his ascention, it's still interesting to note. It's an interesting conversation to say the least though, and I wish the video leaned more in this direction, as I still find no credibility to the idea that someone in a remote uncontacted tribe would be saved. Especially since visions are prophetic (which as an aside, should mean they're included in Scripture), and we see prophecy no longer being given after the first century. This makes Acts 10 a particularly special case as well, as we can't really see it happening today, not 1:1 anyway.
I have a question. I just watched your video about if people have freewill and ive never heard from anyone before that God can both choose some to go to Heaven while still giving the others a way to be saved. It was super refreshing to here and has made me feel alot better. I was just wondering what you think about the verses Romans 9:18-23. There are so many verses to help each side of the argument but i dont see these brought up much
Good question. Are “all” of us chosen by God? Or are just some of us chosen like Jacob and Moses for special purposes? If so, how can God be fair if he “selects” group of people beforehand? Thank you for sharing your thoughts in advance.
@freshliving4199 Because the Bible, and Jesus, constantly tell us to make choices (fear God, follow God, believe in God, love your neighbor, do this, do that...) those seem like choices to me. Also the fact that we are accountable for every choice we make refers to free will.
John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Your "thought #2" is sound theology. It's called "progressive revelation." Christ's earthly mission was even revealed to Adam and Eve by the skins God used to cover them, in place of the fig leaves. They were able to believe this very fundamental image of salvation through Christ even though it was incomplete. It was ALWAYS faith in Christ and his work that saved and saves.
If we were judged based on our actions, we would all be condemned. Everyone lies, looks with lust, etc. Redemption through repentance. The belief is the most important part. If you truly believe, you truly repent. This is why we are not meant to be the judges of our fellow man; we can interpret actions because they play out physically while repentance plays out spiritually. I hope that helps with your thoughts!
This question always feels like a cop out for people who don't want to listen to the gospel. You'll be talking to a non believer and they randomly pull this question out to take the pressure off themselves if they feel convicted
To all who come across this message, may your families be blessed with health, happiness, and peace. May your financial prosperity exceed your expectations, and may your desires be fulfilled. Feel free to respond with 'Amen' to open the door to God's abundant blessings. When we place our trust in Him and remain steadfast in our faith, He provides for all our need 😇
There is one other point that you left out: While those who never hear of Jesus are, in fact, condemned to hell, there are at least two degrees of hell: One lesser hell for those who died without Jesus but never heard of him, and a greater hell for those who actually reject the revelation of Jesus given to them. Jesus says, "It will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of Judgement than for this generation." Besides, if those who have never heard of Jesus didn't go to hell when they died, then preaching the gospel of Jesus would be a ludicrous command. It would be better to leave those folks in darkness and ignorance so that they go to heaven when they die than to preach the gospel and take the risk of them rejecting it only to be condemned. But since they will stand condemned, Jesus WISELY commands us to preach the Good News to give these folks a way out of the eternal punishment for which they are already headed.
@@TEB0H0 Are you talking to me? If so, I think you may not have understood me very well. I think that the person who made this video is right on par with the Bible. He just left out one point that, if I had made the video, I would have included. That's all. He is on solid, Scriptural ground.
Who evangelized to Abraham? Who evangelized to balaam? If there was someone who would believe if they heard. Jesus the savior will appear to them. God doesn’t need us to go an evangelize. God doesn’t need anyone to save those He has called to Himself. He asks us to be willing vessels that He will use to save people, not because He needs us. When your kids help you with work do you need their help or do you want them there? He just wants to spend time with us.
A very important and emotional question. We also must realize that God knows how a person w o u l d respond if they heard the Gospel even before they are born as He is All Knowing!
you said that God has written his law in our hearts and gives regular proof of his existence... But I guess the question now becomes: What about those that lived/live in cultures or societies that basically say and have them believe "Yeah, all those messages and proof that their is a higher power? That's from Thor/Zeus/Izanagi/Buddha." To deny that there were cultures that existed outside the Bible's influence and reach would be ignorant. The people of Japan were isolationist until 1853, and they believed in Buddhism. North Korea, at present, is so oppressive about religion that a toddler was reportedly sentenced for life in their prison for their parents having the Bible, while many others are taught to believe the Kim Jung Un is their god. There's an entire island off the coast of... I believe Indonesia, that has natives hostile enough to throw spears and shoot arrows at any ship that gets too close. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. God basically said of the Ten Commandments, I am the only real God and all other gods are false. If this is written in our hearts... what happens to those that were in an environment that basically told them: "The only god(s) are these god(s) here, not that Jewish/Christian God."?
And Jesus also told us to preach the Gospel. The idea here is that God's punishment is unfair if someone never had the chance to hear it... But the Bible says God is just, so I think it's as simple as yes, they would go to hell. We need to put our feelings aside for just a little bit sometimes.
They go to Hell. No Excuses. The Scripture is Gravely Clear on that. God is Merciful yes, but *He* Sets the Terms for that Mercy, not us! and God is also Just and Wrathful, He did *Not* spare Sodom. Those Elected will come to Faith in Christ, those Unelected will go to Hell. It is that Simple. Scripture is as clear as Daylight on that. Repent and Believe the Gospel, for Jesus Christ is your only Hope, so Repent and Believe the Gospel, I beg of you in Love!
@@simeonyves5940 then that doesn't really seem like "perfectly just" to me. After all, that'd be like handing someone the rules to a game in an envelope, telling them they can't open it before the game begins, then handing them to a coach that you know will grab the rules and throw them out the window, handing the player their own rules for the player to follow before the game begins. By this logic, you have to punish the player as well as the coach when the player did a fantastic job with what he was given. He broke many rules, but he didn't know that. I hope and believe that, using this analogy, God would punish the coach not the player because when all the signs God shows are there, but explained in their set of rules as something different. One MIGHT hear the correct rules, but how are they supposed to know that the rules are true if they are similar to rules given by this false coach. I hope and pray that, on Judgment Day, people that God put into situations where hearing His Word would be almost impossible to impossible, he'll not condemn them.
@@BenMan8881 I agree with you here. I would say that if God's revelation through creation was stronger across every nation in a Romans 1 way, then each there would be less paganism across the world. So many of those cultures did in fact recognize the divine power of creation, but attributed them to their own Gods. I'm sure revelation through creation reveals a divine will, but it doesn't directly lead to an understanding of, "Ah, it must have been made by the One True God!" I know that God desires all men to be saved, and that if there were those that did not recieve an adequate revelation to have truly honored God, God will provide a just and gracious way in which they may have a way to obtain salvation.
@@tobiassednef4977 Paganism is Rampant because the Vast Majority of Mankind is elected for Destruction! Christ is very clear in the Gospels, the Flock is Small! Yes, all things Proclaim the Glory of God, all things Prove His Existence, and they do so to show Peoples need for Christ to save them, In God's Love and Mercy, from the Wrath and Justice that God has against the Breakers of His Law, against Sinners, against the Entire of Humanity, for *all have Sinned* ! Man has no Excuse, God *no Longer* Winks at Ignorance, He has Provided Christ, there is no Excuse, and there is no mercy for Ignorance.

NO! they Deal with him under their Law Regardless! or they would be Unjust! . Same with God! He will deal with Unbelievers according to His Law! or He will be Unjust, and God is *never* Unjust, for God is pure Light, and there is no Darkness in Him! Unbelievers will be Judged under the 613 Laws of Moses, and they will be Found Guilty of all! there is only one way to be Absolved, and that is Christ, who Nailed the Law to His Cross and took it utterly out of the Way! Either Christ Propitiates for a Man's Sins on the Cross and washes them Clean, all their Sins washed away for all Eternity in His Holy and Divine Blood, along with the Laws of Moses, with Grace to Cover any Accidental Breach of the 10 Commandments, or that Man goes to Hell! If God wants a Person to be Saved, He will Provide a way for them to receive the Gospel! He sends Missionaries into the Darkest Jungles of Peru, He sends Evangelists to share the word (look how often some Paganistic Person has been walking along the Prom at Huntingdon, Literally (by walking straight into him!) bumped into Ray Comfort, who has evangelized to them, Exposing their Lost State through the 10 Commandments, leading to them Giving their Lives to Christ that very same Day! and it is Marvelous!) He will, if necessary, even Shipwreck one of His Sheep (same as He did with the Apostle Paul) to get them to the Island that Elect Person lives on! God will Literally move Heaven and Earth to get the Gospel to His Elect and chosen People! No. God has Provided only *One* way to Heaven, and that is Christ, Crucified and Risen, Christ is the way, the truth and the Life, and no man may come unto the Father but by Him, the way is Narrow and few men find it, there is no other name under Heaven by which man must be Saved. It is Christ alone! Those who Die without Christ will go to Hell, Period! there is no Salvation for them, because Christ Crucified and Risen is the only way to be Saved. No ifs, no Buts, Sola Christo! Christ Alone! without Christ Crucified and Risen, there is *No way* to be Saved, there is only Hell. The Bible is Gravely Clear on this! Sola Scriptura, Scripture Alone!, and Anything that Goes against Scripture, such as Universalism, is to be *Thrown unto a Dunghill and Abhorred as an Insult unto God!* because it is a *Damnable Heresy* , because it goes against the Scripture, God's Holy, Written, Immutable and Divine word! Any "gospel" that Denies Christ, Crucified and Risen, and Christ Alone as the *only* way to be Saved is False and will cast you into Hell, as you will be found Accursed for Dying while holding to a false gospel! You must *reject* any false hope of Universalism, Accept that Atonement is *Limited* to the Sheep of Christ, and that only the Sheep will be Saved, Christ did not come for the Goats! Limited Atonement is a *Vital* Part of the Gospel of Grace. You must Repent and Believe the Gospel. For in so doing, You will Receive the Righteousness and the Perfect Record of Christ, Your Sins, all of them! Past, Present, Future, will be Transferred to Christ on the Cross and His Righteousness will be Given You as a White Robe! You will be Saved Eternally! and Heaven will welcome You in Jubilation! So Please, Repent and Believe the Gospel! I beg of You in Love.
This video is not good, and I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that you thought this was good or people thought that this was a good video explaining the problem of non belief. I and many others have heard the word of the Bible and still don’t believe for one reason or another, I know what would convince me, and if it’s the case that god wants everyone to know the truth and be saved, then he should reveal himself in a way that’s convincing like when he parts the red seas and descends mana from the sky for the Israelites and not have to rely on the anonymous maniscripts from fallible human beings that contradict each other.
Quoting Job: "I know my redeemer lives". He said there thousands of years before Christ and believed it even though he never heard about Jesus, this is true faith!
The issue is more that the Greek has been mistranslated. A lot of these Christians don't even realize that the term "eternal punishment" is illogical for us because we are not eternal. Re interpreting the Greek and extinguishing annihilation ism leads to the beautiful and coherent doctrine of universal reconciliation.
@@EmeraldPixelGamingEPG just funny god could have delivered his message in such a way that no translation would be neccesary. He could've done it any way he wanted, if god were real. But instead, he sits by and watches every terrible thing witnessed by anyone alive now and chooses to do nothing. Either it's a truly faith-based religion (which totally contradicts paul) or it's all just fairy tales to keep armies manned and people content with dying young.
Understand that to those who have had the supernatural experience known as the spiritual "new birth," Christianity is logical and rational. It isn't logical and rational to those who have not had that experience. I get that. So, while you may see yourself as more enlightened than believers, you are holding forth on a subject that you not only do not understand, you cannot understand. That is not a knock on your intelligence, your morals or your motives. It is just a fact. (P. S. You and I probably agree that so-called Christians say and do some very dumb things. Sadly, most who call themselves Christians are uninformed, misinformed or simply irrational and illogical.)
@@IsaacNussbaum thank you for the respectful reply!! If this reality were synthetic, IE simulation/matrix/dream/boltzman brain/god=deciever entitity/cartesian scenario of the week/etc etc, you could still have 'supernatural experience.' Jesus could drop down theough my ceiling right now and tell me every thing I've ever thought, but that still doesn't rule out that this isn't really jesus or that I'm not dreaming/stroking out or that I'm in a simulation or random coagulation of particles. There's no way to know, let alone understand for any of us yet. Still so many questions that we can't even being to answer. it would seem to me much, much more progress has come from moving away from 'gods' rather than toward them. By my lights, theists are just all suffering from dunning-kruger en masse, whether willingly or unwillingly. Again, thank you and much respect to you.
My advice is when editing your material, anytime you use the terms such as “my thinking, I believe, my thoughts” get rid of it. God holds teachers to a higher standard - James 3:1. My opinion, yours, and others doesn’t matter - only God’s Word matters.
There's a plethora of academic literature in biblical studies that is at least this speculative. Does that mean it isn't worth anything? I don't think so. So while I see where you're coming from (this video definitely encroaches into speculation) the author at least makes this known. As such, I'm not sure qualifying speculative analysis, correctly and conspicuously, runs afoul of the higher standards for teachers; at the very least, this should probably be weighed against "didaskalos" in James 3:1 which is the Greek equivalent for rabbi and suggests mastery. Speculation suggests an absence of mastery, and who holds mastery when certain questions come up that are edge cases in the text? Only God. However, I think scripture does have some insight here. Two examples that come to mind that support the idea presented in point #2, that people can still be "saved" with incomplete knowledge but only believe, are Naaman the leper and the Widow of Zarephath. Jesus supports this in Luke 4:25-27-and there is a reason the scribes and Pharisees lost their minds. These two were gentiles. The point is that the Abrahamic covenant wasn't nullified by the Law. They simply had to believe.
The topic is Salvation, not something that moves towards speculation like Prophecy. His Thought #1 nullifies Romans 10:13-15. Yet at the end he suggests sharing our faith - why then? This is a rambling about the most important subject for humanity - Eternal Life. Study The Great White Throne judgment of Rev 20:11-15 in context with the rest of scripture. Just advice - all need to be Bereans.@@Zancarius

1. By Christian doctrine God is all knowing and all loving. He can only be fair, for He cannot commit a wrong. You can’t just say “that’s not possible” and leave it at that. 2. There is no such thing as a perfect Christian. That doesn’t mean that a Christian cannot discuss what they believe to try and teach others how to walk with God, just because they are not inherently perfect like He is.
