These people from other parts of the world who have not heard of the name Jesus, what will happen to them? If I go by the biblical passage that we will be saved by believing in Jesus, how bout them? Don't they have their own messiah and do they think the same way for us?

According to the creed I identify with, the only path to walk is the path of being a true human being. Any human who lives with honor, courage, service, and respect for the rights of others is a true human being, and is worthy of the privelage of soul expansion and ascension.
This belief encompasses Christians and non-Christians alike, and is the hardest path to follow, because you must determine for yourself what is right and wrong, and hold yourself accountable for your actions. The true spirit lies in the stillness within, but how many of us are afraid of silence?
Finally, for those who would condemn an African child to Hell for being born in Africa and starving to death, the only thing I feel for you is pity that your faith is so lacking in the compassion desperatley needed in the world. The lowest beggar sleeping in the sidewalks in Calcutta has more to offer than you do, regardless of how "saved" you are.

If they have never heard of Jesus, they will be judged accordingly.
If they have rejected Jesus they will be judged for the rejection.
The Bible is clear that in every one of us, there is a God shaped hole in our hearts. Even though you might not have heard the name Jesus, our hearts tell us there is something -someone higher than ourselves.
Our God is a Just God, not like us. He will not condemn someone if they never had a chance to hear or know about Him. However, to the American that drives by Churchs each day, they will not be able to say they never heard the Truth- they just didn't trouble themselves to find out. There is a huge difference.

That is their tough luck. God laid down the law and ignorance of the law is no excuse. I mean if it weren't for the automatic souls the devil is harvesting, he might try to get more believers. I am just afraid that the Internet may bring the word to so many people that the devil may start focusing more on me. These heathens in the far reaches are Gods buffer to feed the devil and protect us.

According to the Christian faith, if you dont believe in Jesus as savior at the time of your death, you're damned.
Its not fair and its cruel.
Its why I dont believe.

An Inuit hunter asked the local missionary priest:Â
"If I did not know about God and sin, would I go to hell?"Â
"No," said the priest, "not if you did not know."
"Then why," asked the Inuit earnestly, "did you tell me?"
