If a person has not heard of organize religion will they go to heaven or hell?

Question

If a person say lives in teh jungle and is not Christian, Jew, or Muslim or whatever religion you my think of, and they died... Where do they go?

Answer 1

I think they will be judge on their acts only and not their beliefs.

Answer 2

All of us are already residents of hell. Material planets, Earth included are hellish planets. A hellish planet is known to have miseries such as birth, disease, old age and death. At the time of death the soul takes another body in a different location and/or situation. If this person you are talking about do not get to know any religious process during this lifetime and dies, most likely he will in his next. Eventually God will give him the chance to take to a process for him to develop knowledge on the Supreme and go back home, back to Godhead.

Answer 3

If during their life time they were good and honest people, respecting and loving the world around, they'll undoubtedly go to heaven whether they are Christians, Jews , Muslims or any thing else. All God really wants is purity of the soul!

Answer 4

those who have not heard the Word of the Living God will be dealt with fairly by God.
God is a fair and just God.
It is God's wish that none should perish.
it is more the person that HAS heard the Word and has not acted on it who should be worried.
they have absolutely NO excuse come Judgement day.
where do you stand with God?
John 3: The Words of Jesus Christ (God in the flesh)
3. "Verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
4. Nicodemus saith unto Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
5. Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God."
6. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again."
16. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
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."

Answer 5

Good question - scary answer. In Acts chapters 3 and 17 of the Bible God tells us that the time for ignorance is in the past and that all people, everywhere must now repent of their sins and follow Him. In other words we no longer have an excuse for not following Him - we can't say on the judgment day, "sorry I didn't know". This makes it all the more important for people to seek out God's Word on their own and for Christians to be sharing God's Word with those that do want to hear it also. I hope this helps.

Answer 6

They will be asked to come forth on the Judgement day and speak their minds about their beliefs. If they chose to accept Gods omnipotence I reckon theyll go to heaven.

But God is likely to flat out ask them there. And I reckon you cant lie or change your mind at the last minute! hehe

Contrary to what some of my friends here have answered, I wont go with: they will be judged according to their actions. My reason: how can they be judged when no one told them what was wrong or right?

Answer 7

All people are accountable to God whether they have “heard about Him” or not. The Bible tells us that God has clearly revealed Himself in nature (Romans 1:20) and in the hearts of people (Ecclesiastes 3:11). The problem is that the human race is sinful; we all reject this knowledge of God and rebel against Him (Romans 1:21-23). Apart from God's grace, God would give us over to the sinful desires of our hearts, allowing us to discover how useless and miserable life is apart from Him. This He does for those who reject Him (Romans 1:24-32).
In reality, it is not that some people have not heard about God. Rather, the problem is that they have rejected what they have heard and what is readily seen in nature. Deuteronomy 4:29 proclaims, “But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul.” This verse teaches an important principle: everyone who truly seeks after God will find Him. If a person truly desires to know God, God will make Himself known.
The problem is, “there is no one who understands, no one who seeks God” (Romans 3:11). People reject the knowledge of God that is present in nature and in their own heart, and instead decide to worship a “god” of their own creation. It is foolish to debate the fairness of God sending someone to hell who never had the opportunity to hear the Gospel of Christ. People are responsible to God for what God has already revealed to them. The Bible says that people reject this knowledge, and therefore God is just in condemning them to hell.
Instead of debating the fate of those who have never heard, we, as Christians, should be doing our best to make sure that they hear. We are called to spread the Gospel throughout the nations (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8). The fact that we know people reject the knowledge of God revealed in nature must motivate us to proclaim the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. Only through accepting the Gospel of God’s grace through the Lord Jesus Christ can people be saved from their sins and rescued from an eternity apart from God in hell.
If we assume that those who never hear the Gospel are granted mercy from God, we will run into a terrible problem. If people who never hear the Gospel are saved…we should make sure that no one ever hears the Gospel. The worst thing we could do would be share the Gospel with a person and have him or her reject it. If that were to happen, he or she would be condemned. People who do not hear the Gospel must be condemned, or else there is no motive for evangelism. Why run the risk of people possibly rejecting the Gospel and condemning themselves – when they were previously saved because they had never heard the Gospel?

Answer 8

It means they lived in a cave.

No matter what, all people have emotion, which is the key to happiness and well being. Emotion means energy in motion, well, to me at least, so if someone is in control of their emotions and have any insight at all into a/their spirit that is somehow greater than the physical world, I'd say their in God's hand and there's not much to worry about.

Answer 9

The most important thing is how people behave. If they are good people, I think they will go to heaven. In any case, heaven and hell are states of being, not places. One can be in hell or heaven in this world and the afterlife. I think if they are good people, they are in heaven already.

Krishna, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad, Baha'u'llah and other great religious teachers all taught that people should love one another and treat others as one wants to be treated. I think the ancient prophet, Zoroaster, who lived about 3,000 years ago, summed it up well:

"Good thoughts, good words, good deeds."
