Do most people living in third world countries go to hell after they die because they never accepted Jesus as their savior? They have never heard of Christianity or the Bible. These people never take the time to worship God or Jesus because they spend most, if not all of their time just trying to survive. Because they would rather spend their time trying to live instead of accepting Jesus, they must go to hell, right?

actually if you take the fall of as truth then all men are sinners and deserve to be separated from God and God is right to make that judgment so if by Providence God knows you will believe he will send one to help you. remember Christianity has been along fro 2000 yrs and many of the groups in this world have had opportunity to here at some point in time at the start the desciples went all of the known world preaching. God has the right to have mercy on whom he'll have mercy. Have n't you heard of the flood God allowed all to die except for 8 people. You have to realize that this life is not about humans being the most important thing it about God being the most important thing.We are not here for just our own pleasure We are the creation not the creator we do not even get a say (as far as we know )when we will be put on this world or where. We have very little to do with the out come of our lives it is God Who establishes us where we are at and when we get here . We are all His property to do with as He see fit and He has promised to sort it all out in the end . You just have to figure out what end of the stick you want to be on . Becouse you are not in a tribe you are here and have had access to hear and believe or not . so you better choose wisly you will not have an axcuse the tribal people may for the sake of arguement but you do not. best regards hope this helps

Not necessarily. those that have not had the chance to hear about the bible or God can't be held responsible for that which they did not know. As it says in Acts, at the times of this ignorance, God winked at. But when they find out and then reject it, that is when they are held responsible. A just and fair God will never hold someone responsible for things they do not know just as a just person would not but would overlook the ignorance of the fact and then teach them the right way.

Why would you say something like that? Who are you to judge where these peopel will go or what will happen to them? Do you know Jesus Christ as your saviour if you did then you would know that there is a place where they go to and at the time of ressurection of al dead are given a chance to understand and chose. They do not automaticaly go to hell. There are also alot of good missionaries out there taking a chance on theri livses to teach these people about God and help them find better ways to survive, so they will have the best of both worlds.

If ignorance was an excuse, Christ's death would have been unneccessary and the Great Commission an act of cruelty. There are Christians all over the world sharing the gospel; however, there will be many who are never told. Romans 1:20 says, "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse." God speaks for himself in His creation, and surely those in less advanced cultures are closer to that than we are. I cannot pretend to understand it, but if God says people are equipped to find the truth on their own, they are.

actually there are many, many christian missionaries in third world countries all over the world so that people will hear the name of Jesus. However, God says that only with the rejection of Christ will people go to Hell. If someone lives a life without ever knowing about God, then God will judge them accordingly

Your question cannot be answered....is anyone here the Son of God or God himself? They alone will judge, and we do not have the right to assume what will or will not happen to those who have never heard the gospel. I pray they will be delievered.

Wrong! The RESPONSIBILITY rest upon those that have the knowledge, those that are not given the knowledge through no fault of their own, are judged by their character, what kind of person they are, good or bad.

there is no link between "trying to survive" and "knowing Christ as their personal Savior" here in America we have homeless people do you think that they will go to hell between God and survival issues, i dont think so! its a matter of weather you believe in Christ or not!!! everyone in this world has heard about Christ, will hear about him and will have to make a decision, the survival factor is independent from this issue! think about your questions before you ask them please!

"Every man [or woman] can be saved, and those are saved who acknowledge God and live rightly" (Divine Providence n. 325).
