(Apparently everyone who has never heard of Jesus: Children, babies, mentally handicapped, people on deserted islands, islamic countries all go to hell)

Why do some Christians think that those who have never heard the Gospel, still get into heaven?
Jesus said that He is the only way into heaven, and there is no other way.

So the question is asked sometimes, what about those who haven't heard? And Romans 1 answered the question, they're still guilty, and still deserving of eternal hell. There is no salvation outside of believing that Jesus, who is God, died for our sins on the cross and rose again.

So why do some Christians think that there's some "exception" to this? If people are saved by not hearing, then we should shut down every Gospel preacher immediately, so that everyone goes to heaven.

Right?


The point is that such a false gospel as some Christians are teaching, is actually leading people to hell. The truth is that there is no way to heaven for anyone, outside of Jesus Christ, no matter whether they've heard or not.
