According to Paul below, all those who die without both, hearing and responding, to the gospel face eternal condemnation.
13 For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? (Romans 10:13-15)
Working in reverse order according to the above verse;
1) a preacher must be sent,
2) a person must hear the preacher’s message,
3) a person must believe,
4) a person must call on the name of the Lord,
5) and then he will be saved.
Yet most Christians today do not believe that this is the one and only way a person can be saved, do they?
Why?
