-DO GOOD PEOPLE GO TO HELL?

'For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who
believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.'
--Romans 1:16 -

-At one point or another, most Christians are confronted with the question, “What about all those people who’ve never heard the Gospel? What about the good man in the middle of Africa who never meets a Christian? Will that person go to hell?”

That’s a hard question. And while there are many things we don’t know, there are other things we do know about God. First, we know that God is a fair and just judge (Genesis 18:25). So I firmly believe that God will never hold an innocent person responsible for sins that he or she didn’t commit.

But at the same time, the Bible also teaches that as far as eternal judgment is concerned, all are guilty. "There is no one righteous… not even one person" (Romans 3:10). So the hypothetical “good” man who doesn’t hear about Jesus is just that… hypothetical!

It’s clear from the Scriptures that all are under the same indictment of sin and all deserve eternal death. That includes you and me. But through faith in the death and resurrection of Christ, anyone can escape death and receive grace. God has called you to take the Gospel to those who’ve never heard so that many can be saved. Let’s get busy!

-EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR THE GOSPEL. SO GET ACTIVE IN THE WORK OF TAKING THE MESSAGE OF CHRIST TO THE WORLD.

[The Supremacy of Christ: {Colossians 1:15-20 NIV)
-"He (Jesus), is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all Creation. For by Him all things were created: things in Heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the head of the body, the Church; He is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything He might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in Heaven, by making peace through His blood, shed on the Cross. " ~~]
--Romans 10:9-11 / "That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in Him will never be put to shame." ~~
