Bible Note: Thank you for your insight and your willingness to share what someone told you. I do believe that God will judge those who never heard on the basis of their life. I think the Scripture reference for this can be found somewhere in the book of Romans. Would anyone know what that is? All said and done, it is true that God being God, we will never understand everything while on this side of eternity. But it should suffice to know that He is God and He is just and merciful. If He weren't, we wouldn't be saved. For He died for us while we were still sinners, and I know He is not partial. We didn't do anything to deserve His grace anymore than those who never heard of Him did anything to deserve His punishment. |
