Hi Ray,
I dont want you to think I am testing you or anything... I just want to understand and I like to cover all bases in all things... As far as the ones who have already died without hearing ... doesnt Gods word mean what it says if it says that it will be preached than wont it? Is it possible that they DID in deed hear the gospel in one way or another...
thanks Paul
Dear Paul:
No, it is absolutely NOT possible that the gospel has been preached to the hundreds of millions of Russians, Chinese, etc., over the past thousands of years. It is in judgment that the gospel will be preached to these people.
God be with you,
Ray
