I have a situation for my christian members. I have asked other christians this question and got different respones. When I was a christian, this was one of the main sticking points that bothered me about the faith...
So here is the situation, Imagine a native guy living in the middle of the congo. He has no concept of god, jesus, the holy ghost, redemption of sin what have you. While he does not have these notions, he lives what most christians would consider a good life considering he is a heathen. (i know that according to christian faith being good is not enough but follow along with the story, do not use that as a sticking point in your defense). Well he dies without ever hearing about the gospel of no fault of his own. He just happened to be born in the middle of the congo, and a missionary never reached him. This is the question, does the native go to heaven or hell. Or does he go somewhere in between?
When posting your answer, back them up with scripture of some sort. Since that is the medium of your faith. I am looking for scriptural interp/proof not your opinion.
