Christians, when Jesus came to earth from a virgin birth to 'spread the word'?

Question

(ahem) there was no mass communication methods, so the word must have been very slow to get around. Does this mean that anyone who died before Jesus or his disciples got to them simply went to hell? Seems a bit unfair? The 'word' still hasn't reached some of the world,especially remote tribes. Are they all in hell for doing nothing wrong apart from living too far away?

I've never seen such an array of different answers to one question...

Answer 1

And on top of that God created all these languages to confuse us.
Nice way to get your "Word" out there effectively, huh?
Omniscient my ***.

Answer 2

certainly, i think it may be rendered as the two. The word, of somebody being the seed of a woman (see Genesis financial ruin 3) is extremely unusual. Later, Jesus’ virgin start might supply meaning to this verse and tutor that certainly, it replaced right into a prophecy of that far destiny journey. additionally, a “youthful single woman” conceiving might hardly be an illustration of something holly, activities like that happen fairly often in this worldwide. --------------- further.(Jeremiah 31:22) "How long wilt thou pass approximately, O thou backsliding daughter? for the LORD hath created a sparkling subject interior the earth, a woman shall compass a guy." "This “new subject” would properly be not something decrease than the advent astounding thought and virgin start of the promised Savior. The be conscious for “compass” potential “enclose,” and no different interpretation of this promise might contain a “new subject.” word the reference additionally to a “virgin of Israel” interior the previous verse. right here verses deliver approximately the super promise of the “new covenant” in Jeremiah 31:31 and following HMM."

Answer 3

Adam (PBUH) was born without a mother.
Jesus (PBUH) was born without a father.
Muhammad (PBUH) was the Seal of the Prophets.
This has completed the cycle.

All three were Prophets sent by God to mankind.

All those that have taken human form are subject to the same rules.
Those who were born before and those who were born after
must all succumb to the final test for man. This is known to man as "The Final Judgment".

God is The Most Compassionate and Most Merciful One.
All humans will be treated as sisters and brothers of one Loving Father.
This is Gods Universal Law.

Answer 4

Get ready, the Christians have a zillion ways to dance around good questions like yours, and it is all double talk. In fact, I have asked a similar question about people who are adults living in remote jungles who have never heard of Jesus, and do they go to hell...the Christians will give you a variety of goofy answers. I'm going to read on to see if they have come up with anything new.

I am not optimistic, because the truth is that there is no hell, and that reality doesn't work for the "one God, my way only", patriarchal path that they are on.

Answer 5

Of course you can see that it is a metaphor. Jesus' message was those who live like me have a great chance for happiness and inner peace as they nurture their tendency for good. He tried to explain humanity's divine role in this existence and empower them to co-create with prayer as if they were all divine children of God, just like him. He tried to comfort with the knowledge that the spirit continues when the flesh dies and it continues to thrive and grow beyond this existence.

It's a beatiful story and a lovely metaphor that has been distorted by time, greed, translation and just life - growing and changing until it no longer represents what it was meant to - and thus the age changes and so do the People. You can see it all around you, can't you? I know I do.

Peace!

Answer 6

Jesus was born about 2000 years ago. Jesus descended down to hell to give everyone that was in hell at the time the good news. The people that believed went to heaven and the that did not believe are still in hell. Now everyone has a chance to believe or not to believe. The ones that believe will go to heaven and the ones that do not believe will go to hell.

Answer 7

No one will be lost because he hasn't heard of Jesus. God says, "The wrath of God is being revealed from Heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse." (Romans 1:18-20) He also promises, "You will seek Me and find me when you search for Me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:13)

You see, God brings everyone to "God-consciousness" through the witness of creation. When a person anywhere, in any culture comes to God-consciousness – and then desires to know this God, He will move Heaven and Earth to get the true message to him.

Answer 8

Jesus didn't come to spread the word, he is the word.

God isn't anything like whats portrayed in the Bible, so even back then people used God to further their own agendas. If we are to understand, its all allegory open to guesswork until we risk everything,seek his help and he responds Which by the way he does when we ask of him thru the name of .his son. By the way, Jesus overcame the devil so their is no hell, just death without God.

Answer 9

No one will go to hell because they haven’t heard of Jesus Christ. The heathen will go to hell for murder, rape, adultery, lust, theft, lying, etc. Sin is not failing to hear the gospel. Rather, "sin is the transgression of the Law" (1 John 3:4). If we really care about the lost, we will become missionaries and take the good news of God’s forgiveness in Christ to them.

Answer 10

Nope. It is specifically stated only if you reject the knowledge not if you don;t have it.

This is an old and completely refuted argument already. (several centuries). Please try to find new one.
