Biblical Answer

The Bible addresses the question of what about people who have never heard of Jesus by providing guidance on how to approach this issue. According to the Bible, God does not judge people based on whether they have placed their faith in Christ, but rather on whether they have responded to God's general revelation in nature and conscience. The Bible teaches that those who have never heard the gospel would not respond to it even if they did hear it (Romans 1:20, 3:8-11). This means that people who have never heard of Jesus are not punished for their lack of knowledge, but rather for their failure to respond to God's revelation.

The Bible also teaches that the gospel is not just a message to be preached, but also a gift to be received. According to the Bible, the gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, and it is the message that is heard through the preaching of Christ (Romans 1:16, 10:14-17). This means that the gospel is not just a message that is preached to people who have never heard of Jesus, but also a gift that is available to them. The Bible teaches that God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).

In light of this, the Bible teaches that we should not be anxious about people who have never heard of Jesus, but rather pray for them and share the gospel with them. According to the Bible, the gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, and it is the message that is heard through the preaching of Christ (Romans 1:16, 10:14-17). This means that we should not be discouraged by the fact that many people have never heard of Jesus, but rather be motivated to share the gospel with them and pray for their salvation. The Bible teaches that God is able to make his people know what is right, and that he will give them a spirit of wisdom and revelation so that they can know him (Ephesians 1:17-19). This means that we should pray for people who have never heard of Jesus, and trust that God will give them the gift of faith and salvation.
