"So Jesus died on the cross only for those who accept it? What becomes of someone who has never heard anything about God, Jesus, the Bible, etc. ... someone who was never taught these things?"

Based on the wording of your response, it seems you are saying that everyone, saved or unsaved, are in the Body of Christ. This is not correct. Jesus did die for everyone, but only those who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior are members of the Body of Christ, His Church. Please correct me if I misunderstood your response.

That's my belief ... yes. But remember this, we were all "saved" the day He died for us on that cross.

Jesus did die for everyone, but only those who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior are members of the Body of Christ, His Church.

At this point, I must again ask what of those who have never been exposed to any of this? Are they destined for eternal death?
