The question: How can God send people to eternal hell who never even heard of Jesus
Religions Answer: They are without excuse. Creation testifies. WRONG!
Creation does not testify of any of the salvific essentials.
-Sinless Son of God
-Crucifixion
-Resurrection
Heres the right answer:
Jesus said: “And I, If I be lifted up from the earth WILL DRAW ALL MEN UNTO ME.”
If any human, even one, dies without having been DRAWN UNTO JESUS by the GOSPEL, not some general revelation....then Jesus FAILED to keep his word. Thats impossible.
Thus we must conclude that for Jesus to be 100% successful in drawing every human being to himself...and many die without ever hearing the gospel...that means they WILL get to hear it postmortem and be given a chance to repent.
God's Wrath on Unrighteousness
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. 19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world,7 in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
The question for me would be how could any god-thing worthy of the capital G have anything to do with an eternal people-toaster?
For me, the larger question would be, WHY, this God, would even want to roast people for eternity, when basically what they have done is exercise their free will?!!
Im sorry to say, but if you give ALL people free will...its a guarantee, some of them are NOT going to choose the path you want them to (but they should definitely not be punished for that either).
If these people chose a life without God in it, and they are content living like this...then God could create a place for these people in the afterlife (a place without God).
If any human, even one, dies without having been DRAWN UNTO JESUS by the GOSPEL, not some general revelation....then Jesus FAILED to keep his word. Thats impossible.
RESPONSE: No, Jesus has been know not to keep his word. Witness
Jesus' failure to return during the lifetime of many of those standing around him.

Jesus DID return as the Comforter (Holy Spirit) at Pentecost and He abides with us to this very day to guide us to the Truth God has "written in our hearts."
