Bible Question: Is there any verse stating that everyone will have the chance to hear God's word? For instance, the people in other countries that are required to be a certain religion, do they go their whole life without knowing about Jesus, or does he find some way to reach everyone? |
Bible Answer: "god is not willing that any should perish" yet it is so hard to imagine that in this day and age that there could possibly be a soul out there that hasn't heard of the gospel of jesus christ. I know that both in judaism ans islam thay know the centuries old story of christ and regard him as a great prophet or a great teacher. not as the son of god our lord and saviour. As christians we learn that jesus himself said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. no man come unto the father but by me." JOHN 14:6 yet we still must wonder of those over time who never had the opportunity hear of christ and the forgiveness and redemption we have in him.... i personally thank god that i did hear and answer that ":knock" and try to remember the greatest calling of all for all christians "go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" mark16:15 we must take a personal responsibility as christians to reach out across the world, across whatever barriers may be in place whether they be political, religious, cultural, or whatever. we can do this by sponsoring or participating in various missionary trips around the world. whether it be giving our time, money, food, or simple prayers god has enabled us in our own specific ways to participate in the great commission of all christians. we should spend timd in prayer everyday that god will lead us into whatever our own personal missionary commisiion is. |
