Why are (some, or most) Christians afraid to answer this question?

Question

What about China, India, and the jungles of the Amazon river?

Does your religion include a plan for those who have never heard about Jesus?

(Are they not also "God's children"?)

Answer 1

I think that God is infinite in his wisdom and judgment. That we will be judged on our knowledge, or ability to find that knowledge.
That is, if we live somewhere that is filled with ways to find out about him, and don't, we are accountable for that. And someone that lives where there is absolutley no way for them to hear about God, that he will know that and account for it.

I also believe that we have a spirit in us, that knows there is more, a higher power that we are made for, to worship. We are to be in fellowship with God. So while they may not know what it is, they can live to the spirit inside, and with the knowledge they have.

Answer 2

Yes, our religion does include a plan for those who have never heard about Jesus. Jesus said that these good news will be preached to the whole world before his return. That is why we have many, many missionaries penetrating the likes of Amazon and other areas where the Gospel had never been preached before. As for those who died without hearing about Jesus, God will know what scale He will use to judge them on the final day.

Answer 3

Aren't you out of touch on this one . Their are roughly 25 million India Christians and some 70 million in China alone.
Although that is just the tip of an iceberg . We have teams
that go every 6 months or so to these and many other countries as well . Plus a lot of their leaders of the Faith come
here to share their testimony's of Hope and Faith in Jesus .
Beside those , there are christian plants growing in the Amazon for years now . May God make you wise , Amen...

Answer 4

Read Revelation of the Bible. An angel will be flying through the heavens declaring the gospel of Jesus Christ to all the earth during the Tribulation period. If an angel of God can't reach these people, then they will not be reached. The Word of God plainly quotes that the gospel will be preached in all the world. That means China, India, and the jungles of the Amazon River. God is more than able to reach every person.
He created everyone of us regardless of what some think and His creation will hear the gospel of Jesus Christ. Trust God.

Answer 5

Why would anyone be afraid to answer this question? But yes, there is a plan. One of the responsibilities as a christian is to spread The Word. That's why we have missionaries who go to these places and teach them the christian way. From that point, it is out of our hands. They can either choose to accept the christian way or not. You can't force anything on anyone. All you can do is try. if it doesn't work, you leave it in God's hands after that. Like the old saying goes, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink". Maybe you should stop searching for flaws in other people, and start looking for ways to live your life better.

Answer 6

Missionaries are being sent to far away lands, to share Christ. However, if there is one person or more in this world that never hears about Jesus- then God would take them to Heaven. Why? Because He is merciful and He would not send someone to hell, that never once heard about Him, or had a choice to repent. Most people before Jesus returns will have that chance though. If a baby or young child dies, before the age of accountability dies, God also take them to heaven.

Answer 7

If you are so concerned about it, what are you still doing here?! And it's not our religion. It is God's inerrant, infallible, Holy Word and He is more than capable of saving those who He know are His. I've already answered this question numerous of times... If you knew God's Word you would know that in Romans He says that every single person is born with the inner knowledge built inside them that there is a creator?God. Now what they, no matter where you live, choose to do with that knowledge will either make them a child of hell or a child of God.

Answer 8

There is a verse that says something about the sins of the father being paid for by the sons. I have been told that those people in remote villages who do not believe do so for a reason. At some point they had the chance to turn to the Lord, and they rebelled. Whether it was them or their anscestors, if you refuse the Lord, you will go to hell.....




If I am wrong, please tell me so. I am just repeating what a preacher told me once when I asked that Very same question.

Answer 9

In the beginning, everyone knew God. Adam knew God. Eve knew God. Cain & Abel knew God. Then as years progressed, people turned away a followed other gods of their own making and all the thoughts of men were evil. For this God caused a great flood which cleansed the earth of unbelievers. He save Noah and his family because they believed and knew God. Now, many years later, people have once again turned away from God and followed gods of their own making. The people of China, India, and the Amazon had ancestors who knew God but turned away from Him and chased after false gods. These descendents are paying a price for the unbelief of their ancestors. Now to my question for you. Are your descendents going to pay a price for your unbelief? Is your denying God and teaching them to do the same, going to cause them to face eternal separation from Him? Don't go laying blame at God's door when you are not fulfilling your job of "bringing them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord". Their blood will be on your head, not God's.

Answer 10

The bible states in Matthew chapter 28 verse 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father. and the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Matthew chapter 28 verse 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: lo I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. to answer your question Most Christian's don't read the Bible enough to know the answer. Not all Christian's

Answer 11

There is a difference between not having knowledge of God/Jesus/Holy Spirit and having knowledge and choosing to not accept it.
Those who have never been exposed to Christianity will be judged in their own right before God. Just as those in the old testament were judged before God. Just because Jesus hadn't come yet and died for our sins, does not stop the fact that some of them had led a good life, in the eyes of the Lord.
In the same way, if someone lives a God-pleasing life, even without the knowledge of Him, he will be judged accordingly.

Now, those they have the knowledge, but choose to not accept, that is a whole different ball game.
