Nope, I'm just lucky that the ultimate price for sin is death itself, and Jesus took care of that for me too. Hell is an insult to Jesus. As if his blood isn't valuable enough.

It takes a incorrect faith to tell absolutely everyone that there is a horrors of hell. Rev.21:8; this could make human beings afraid, and that's the incorrect area of do. Acts 2:27-31; Jesus replaced into resurrected out of hell the sepulchre, cave, tomb or grave and those passing into the dominion of the heavens on judgement day are besides Rev.20:12,13; 2Cor.5:10; all of us supply an account of ourselves for sturdy or undesirable. After that Rev.20:7-10; in effortless terms devil is solid into the lake of hearth.

There are Christian missionaries all over the world, caring about the eternal welfare of everyone. One example of this is
http://www.xingu.org/
a missionary outreach to the Amazon Basin, which my church is involved in.
And no one is born into salvation when one is born into this world. That is why you must be born again. It is a choice each person makes for himself or herself.

Here is a further answer to your question excerpted from the Christian Apologetics & Research Ministry:
What about those who have never heard the Gospel?
1. That is a good question. The Bible says that God is a just God. We know that whatever He does is right. When it comes to those who have never heard the Gospel, He will do what is right, whatever that is. But as for you, you have heard the Gospel and He will judge you according to how you respond. He is calling you to repentance, to turn from sin and come to Him.
2. Romans 2:11-16 speaks about those who have never heard the Law of God, and how they will be judged according to the law that is written in their hearts. The Law written in their hearts is the knowledge of right and wrong. Perhaps God's judgment of those without a proper knowledge of Him is included there where it says that they will be judged according to their own consciences that "bear witness, and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them." All I know is that God will do what is right, and the only way to have your sins forgiven is through Jesus.
End of quote.
Christians typically care a great deal about other people, and have contributed a lot to the welfare of others. Each person is a valuable life to God.

It is not the "right" religion that saves you from the horror of Hell, it is Jesus Christ sacrifice in the cross and his resurection that gives us the grace of avoiding Hell, there is no right religion, first believe in Jesus, just by looking at the sky on a clear night may give you the opportunity to recognize that there is a God that loves you and you must believe in him and follow him.

1. God doesn't judge you on what you don't know. Only on what you do with the knowledge that you DO have.
2. Hell doesn't burn forever. The Hell I believe in is hotter than "your" Hell. It's hot enough to burn up sin and sinners forever, completely destroying them. The Bible says that only the Saved receive eternal life. The damned receive no eternal life of any kind, in Hell or otherwise. To believe that people burn in Hell forever is to believe that sin is stronger than God!

Heh, good point.
However, why would we think that God cares for Gentiles now, when he spent 4000 years killing us and keeping us separate from the Jews?
Then as soon as Paul says its ok for us to be a part of the chosen people, we introduce pagan rituals into God's religion and transform it into an amalgamation of Pagan ritual and Jewish tradition?
I am thinking Christians are in for a bit of a surprise if it turns out that the God of the OT really does exist.

Being born into Roman Catholism was hell for me. Thank god I left. Religion is not something one must be born into and groomed into believing in; you have to find the answers on your own.

People who shy away from rational thinking don't realize that God inspired the birth of so many alternative religions. If God had any thoughts that these other faiths were drawing people away from Heaven, he would have done a Sodom & Gammorah on them . Religion loves people who don't think. Do you want to be one of them?

There is no luck about it....I call it blessings.
I'm sorry I don't have the verse, but it is said in the Bible that God is revealed in nature, so every person on earth has the opportunity to accept God and learn from there.
I feel very fortunate every day for the blessings and freedoms that I have been given.
Have a great week!

God does let people know about him. Even in desolate areas in Africa.
My Pastor once preached about a man that lived in Africa. He was in a tribe that did not know about other people in the world. One day a missionary came to the village. After getting to know the people and learning the language, this missionary started preaching the Bible and about God. He told how God reveals himself to everyone in their way.
This African stood up and told the missionary that he was there for him. He then told this story to the missionary. He had been taught by his parents about the gods of the earth. He could not understand it because he felt like there was something else out there. He said he would climb a tall tree and call out to this beaing that he felt was calling to him. He would say, "Tell me about you. Let me know who you are." He did this for years. Then the missionary came and started telling him the things that he felt in his heart.
Everybody hears God in their heart. Everybody makes a choice whether or not to fallow God. It is up to you to listen and answer.
But what about those others that God put the knowledge of himself into their hearts and they did not call out to Him? We have them everywhere. Even here in the United States. Many people here, go to hell because they will not choose to except Jesus as their personal savior. If they did that, then they would be admitting that there is a God and that they would have to do what God says.
This they will not do.
This is truely sad.

Everyone will spend eternity somewhere. Heaven or the lake of fire that was meant for the devil and his demons. Yes, people will burn for eternity in the lake of fire. Imagine hell as the flame of a match to your skin that burns at about 600 degrees and will not stop burning. Now imagine the lake of fire as your being thrown into a volcano that burns your skin for eternity. Never to be consumed. Always burning, burning , burning at 6,000 degrees for eternity.

Don't worry about those heathens, they deserve it. Add all the human beings that ever lived from the dawn of homo sapiens some 150,000 years ago. All heathens. Not a Jew or a Christian among them. They worshipped rocks and will surely burn in hell.
We are sooo lucky. Praise Jayz-us-uh!
