That may be; I would simply say that any condemnation is non Biblical and equally wrong!
A person will not go to hell if he is invincibly ignorant and loves others.Many Muslims in extreme Muslim area's of the world don't know Jesus Christ and the Gospel. They haven't been presented it. So how can they reject it? They only reject a scare crow, much like anti-Catholic's who don't know Catholicism.
What is the Biblical basis for this? Jesus proclaimed quite explicitly that it was only though faith in Him that a person is saved.
It is good intentions to not want those who have never heard of Christ should not be condemned to Hell, but it is not our decision to be made; it is Christ's. Thus the only thing we can do is evangelize as best we can, to let people hear the Word of God. It is not our position to state one way or another that they are saved or condemned.
I wish you a Blessed Evening!
I hope yours, is too! Mine is still 12 hours away - the day is just getting started here in Suzhou, China. My morning ritual: get up, stretch, a few situps, a few pushups, devotions, check out FR, then breakfast...:)
“”What is the Biblical basis for this? “”
“Dearly beloved, let us love one another, for charity is of God. And “EVERY ONE” that loveth, is born of God, and knoweth God.” 1 John 7
“My dearest, if God hath so loved us; we also ought to love one another. No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God “ABIDITH” in us, and his charity is perfected in us. In this we know that we abide in him, and he in us: because he hath given us of his spirit.”- 1 John 11-13
Emphasis mine
“”Thus the only thing we can do is evangelize as best we can, to let people hear the good news””
We agree on this!
“”Mine is still 12 hours away - the day is just getting started here in Suzhou, China.”
I wish you a Blessed morning than!
