Side-stepping issues as usual like most Christians. If you really know or have the answer to the Op's question then answer it.
He doesn't have an answer. No one does. The FTC already advised him to Google. Religion and debate na 5 & 6.

You can correct my English. It's my first time of creating a topic.

As it was written in the bible that whosoever that do not believe in Jesus Christ won't be saved and will rot in hell. My question here is what will happen to those who never knew Jesus Christ?

before Jesus God has a way of dealing with man. same thing with during and after Jesus. for each time and season God deals with man differently. during the times of the prophets God deal with the Israelites immediately.
to answer your question, God the judge know exactly how to deal with them, remember Abraham went to heaven through righteousness so does that are wrongful doers will be condemned

No one has an excuse for not knowing God. The bible says that since creation, the truth about God's word is known to man instinctively.. God has put this knowledge in the heart of man..Eccl 3:1. When u respond to this instinct and reach out to God, He in turn will make sure that u understand His words. So despite where u are, God is awesome and in His own way will make the goodnews get to u.....'to the ends of the earth' Acts 1:8. No one has been kept in the dark about God's existence.

Citation needed please.

As for the non-israelites that died before Christ, they will be preached during the resurrection period when all that have died since Adam will rise from the dead. During that period, Satan will be bound in chains for a period of 1000yrs, which is the millennial reign of Christ. Those people will be made to see how their beliefs were wrong. After the 1000yr reign, Satan will be let lose again to test mankind for one last time. Anyone that chose to follow him at that time will be doomed with him.

Interesting! So Jesus taught all the above? Again, citation needed.

I really would have love to quote Bible verses to support this, but am short on MB.

Don't you have a Bible with you? Oh well, you need Google so you can copy and paste.

Having said that, I want to state that Heaven is not a destination, it is a bubble that has been created due to thoughts and emotions of religious people, if you ever find yourself in any heaven, it is just a mental construct within the mental plane and you will be out again journeying through the Galaxies, our creation, for our experiences.

Enjoy your world, it is yours for your amusement and happiness.

You guys are not different from religious fundamentalists. Indulge us and tell us how you know this.

It may help many to start by saying, In My Humble Opinion. That way you are not seen to be presenting what is otherwise a personal conclusion as incontrovertible fact.

Please think of your destination and work towards it.
The statement: GOD THE FATHER,GOD THE SON AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT, also in Genesis 1vs 2 and Genesis 1 vs26 shows that Jesus Christ has already been in existence but only made physical manifestation to human through His birth.
So be properly guided.

I understand your point but Christ came to give us hope.
Christianity is not contradictory human wisdom isn't enough to understand it.
Re: What Will Become Of Those Who Have Died Before The Birth Of Christ? by hardbody: 11:10am On Mar 05, 2017
The ops question is answered in Revelations. Those who died before Christ and Christianity are those stated as people who will be brought back to life after Satan the devil has been abyssed for a thousand years. They will be taught and given the opportunity to either accept or reject Christ. ..the way to salvation. Then Satan will be unchained for a period to test their integrity and thereafter the those that remain recalcitrant will be destroyed alongside Satan the devil.

References

Read Revelations 20:1-4 for abyssing the devil
Vs 7-10 for the test after the thousand years
Vs 11 -14 for what will happen after the test.

Take particular attention on verse 14 and ruminate on the fact that death and grave are inanimate and can't be burnt in fire strictly speaking but rather means final and total extermination.

Revelation 21 verses 3 to 5, vs 8.

I hope the above helps.

That Scripture was said during the life time of Jesus Christ and not Before the Birth of Jesus Christ..Dont forget that The following Prophets were born before the existence of Jesus Christ on earth; Abraham,Isaac,Ishmael,Lot,Jacob,Joseph,Moses,Elijah,Enoch n so on....A Muslim that doesn't accept Jesus as a Prophet of God is not a Muslim including the Christians...Besides,Jesus Christ was neither a Christrian nor Jew, he was an Observant of Moses law to d core

Bro 1Peter 3:18-20 said he went to hades and proclaimed the good news to the spirit in prison. In Matt 27:52-53, it says some people who were dead rose and were seen im Jerusalem. Jesus preached to them.

And for those who never heard of the gospel, whether they lived before or after Christ, they.will be judged according to the law of good.and bad written in their heart. The law of conscience. Romans 2:11-16

Hope this helps

Everyone who lived before the birth of Jesus will be revived to live for 1000 years. During those years of tribulation, Satan will run the earth..... Basically, they will use their blood to pay the price. That's if they accept Christ tho.

The word jew means a set of people who expecting the coming of the messiah as prophesied by prophet isaiah to come set them free from the oppression of the romans.
However, when Jesus came a large portion of Hebrews did not accept that the son of an ordinary carpenter, born of a virgin Mary would be the Messiah. They expected a messiah more, a powerful, an omnipresence being that would probably descend from the sky. So till today there are still pple who do not believe that christ has come, they refuse to be called Christians but Jews and they are still expecting the coming of the real Jesus described in isaiah 9v6... so I feel calling Jesus a jew or Christian might be inappropriate... as he isn't part of those Jews that won't even beleive in him...and we all know Christian is form of a nickname for the early Jesus followers that behave like christ jesus

For ur mind u have spoken well "christianity is confusing"why won't u be confused when u refused to read Bible but living fake and useless life. For ur info every answer man seeks is already in the Bible, what has happened, what is happening and to happen. The question OP asked has already been answered in (1Peter 4 vrs 6) I won't quote it, open it and read it, if ur still confuse then I shall explain to u. Stop writing what u don't know or put mouth on discusion beyond ur comprehension.

Your book dont have the answer. And no Christian will give you a correct answer. They will all give you opinions.

The answer is here:

Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabeans [before Prophet Muhammad] - those [among them] who believed in Allah and the Last Day and did righteousness - will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve. [Qur'an 2:62]

It says Jews before Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, before Jesus peace be upon him that certified the following condition will go to Paradise:

1. Believe in One Allah (God Almighty)

2. Believe in the day of Judgment

3. And did righteous
first of all, which book are you talking about? The book no get name?and secondly your opinion as a muslim don't count here on this post. GO TO YOUR THREAD PLEASE

I have been perplexed by this and one other question since I was a kid.

The Bible in Genesis 15:6 when talking about Abraham says "... his faith was counted to him as righteousness". People were holy and righteous and found favour before the earthly birth of Christ... Moses, Joshua, Elijah, Elisha, David etc. These men were judged on parameters such as Faith, Dedication, keeping of the Commandments and more. God rewarded their passion for him and they can be considered righteous.

They didn't need Redemption which is the primary reason we have Christ, because there was nothing to be redeemed in them.

Jesus Christ came so we can find help in our journey to please God again after falling out with Him in Eden. We could have been able to do it on our own like these patriarchs of Faith did, but it would have been very very difficult for us without Grace. So Christ offered Grace, so you won't have to pray 5 times a day. So you won't have to kill rams and cows as burnt offering in your quest to please God. So you won't rub ashes on your body and rent your robes ( tear your blouses and shirts in today's parlance). You don't need all those now.

All you need is to believe in Christ as your only Saviour and live a righteous life. He picks you up when you falter.

Jews means blood descendants from tribe of Judah. Any other definition that your religion gives you, is just to provide you a succor as a gentile, or infidel, so you can join the religion and be happy that Sky Daddy will help you out, out of mercy. Even when science has finally proven that there is no sky daddy, that we are all part of the whole and whatever is existing out there is just a greater version of the Mind, then you will step out of the Mind, and address every entity as Soul, our greater version in the Unified Field, called Cosnciousness.

Hebrews 11 speaks of those faithful men, I will recommend you read it. However, the scripture speaks of God making a place for them, in heavens.

It is important to note that this words were written by the apostle Paul himself. So, even though they live before Jesus, but God had a better place for them.
