Jesus said that one sign of the last days would be that the good news of God's Kingdom would be preached in all the world for a witness to all the nations and then the end would come. That prophecy is now being fulfilled in over 235 lands. When the end comes all people will have had the opportunity to know the true God and will know that his Kingdom is a real government that will soon rule over the earth where meekness and righteousness will prevail.

I am LDS. We believe all of mankind has the right to hear the gospel and either accept or reject it. That is why we do temple work for the dead, those who have not received the gospel in this life, that never had the chance, can in the spirit world before Christ comes again and also some people during the millenium. But all people who ever lived on this earth MUST have the opportunity to accept or reject, or God would not be just.

The Americas were not the last to receive the message - the message was brought by believers who moved here from other countries. If you recall, we are "the melting pot". The USA was founded on Christian principles (it's in our Constitution and our Pledge). We are not void of the message. People in parts of Africa had never heard of Jesus Christ years ago, but Christian missionaries are now carrying the Word of God to those people in wartorn countries like Africa. The Word of the Lord is out there. Christians are reaching people all over the world, so all will have the opportunity to accept Christ and have eternal life.

According to the Bible after armageddon there will be a great ressurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous where those who never had the opportunity to know God will have a chance.
All humans will have the opportunity but many will still refuse it.

Revelation 20:4-6

The word of God says that (not exactly like iam saying it) God has his ways to let human kind know that he very real. For those who havent heard the Gospel of God's Son Jesus, that is our faults because we are called to spread the word to all God's creation. God knows their hearts whether they are willing to accept or not. the bible also says that his ways are not our ways so I can not sa what God will truly do in the end

This is a great question.
Only the Mormons believe that ALL can be "saved".
The rest of the christian world holds that everyone somehow one way or another has the chance to accept or reject Christ.
There is an asnwer to this question. Some faith's are morerational than others though.

We have an equal-opportunity God. It's the way we live and the how we treat our fellow-man, not whether we've read a particular book, that decides whether we will achieve eternal life. Jesus loves us would not condemn someone to oblivion just because s/he hasn't heard His name.

If you read your bible you will find that Paul addresses this issue in Romans Chapter one. AND Yahoo answers has answered this weekly for months. I know I have answered this question at least three times probably more.
