I hear some ask the question,"What about people living in a remote area, who never heard the Gospel?How can they be saved?"Well, nowadays that's not likely the case, because of an increase in travel modes.{"And the gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world, as a witness to all nations,and then will the end come"}But let's say we apply that question to the generations before these areas were accessible.The answer is, witnessing is just one way. God can save you directly through the Holy Spirit.Like Paul.Paul was on his way to Damascus when a bright light came out of Heaven, blinding him, and a loud voice said,"Saul, Saul, why do thou persecute me?"He didn't get saved through the traditional way, it was directly through an act of God. So I'd say that might be the way these people in remote areas get saved,besides which, prayers from us here that include that.We can't "short-circuit" God by saying,"how is that possible?"The other point,we can't figure out, through human reasoning, who will get saved or not. There were drug addicts who were that way for years,even people in cults, false religions, even downright devil worshipping cults,and they were in that for years, and they got saved. Looking at them{especially that this went on for years} we could think, "they're hopeless. they won't get saved."But they do."Many of the first will be last, and the last will be first."
