And none come to Christ except the Father call him. In other words, the elect come to Christ, called by the Father, the rest are the depraved wicked and their lot is Hell.

In other words? You mean in words other than what is in the Bible.
Sola Scriptura is a lie, isn’t it?
I address this to you because of your sentence which reads...
“And none come to Christ except the Father call him. In other words, the elect come to Christ, called by the Father, the rest are the depraved wicked and their lot is Hell.”
Anyone can answer my question tho...I would appreciate any input...
If as you assert, none can come to Christ, unless the Father calls him and the rest are condemned to Hell, then what happens to those that have never even heard about Christ...
I know that this may seem like a silly question to some here, but I can not understand this...certainly there have been whole tribes of people, in remote areas, that never ever heard of Christ....so are all of these people automatically condemned to Hell?....is it, that God made them all wicked, set them in a place where no missionaries would reach them, and then throw them all into Hell?....
I mean, to me, it is more likely then not, that in the year, say 500, very few missionaries, were in deepest Africa....if those people living in Africa at that time, never heard of Christ, how could the Father call them to someone they never heard of?...that is my question...I mean if they never heard of Christ, never knew who Christ was, never knew what Christ went through, then how could they be called to come to Christ?....or were all those people born in Africa just ‘born’ wicked, and even tho there was no one to tell them about Christ, they deserve hell anyway?
Perhaps I am dense, and it is true, that my Biblical knowledge is much poorer than most on these threads, but I just dont understand this...I am sure someone, sometime, must have asked this question, I just never saw it, or if I did, I do not remember the answers....
Should anyone care to answer, I give my thanks in advance...
