God finds those who seek

How can people today, who have never heard of Jesus Christ, be judged for rejecting Christ?

What of the poor Hindu who is faithful to his religion but is never exposed to the teachings of Christ? Questions, questions.

Consider this: First, we must accept as gospel truth biblical promises that anyone who genuinely seeks God's way will find God's way.

The Bible states that God evidences Himself in two ways:
1. Through creation;
2. Through the God-given moral law written within the consciousness of every human.

Romans 2 says that man is "without excuse." But how could a searching mountain Hindu find the Christ of the Bible?

He could be prompted to head to a village and “accidentally”:
1. Run across a witnessing Christian missionary;
2. Come across a Bible in a language he understands;
3. Be given a gospel tract outlining the plan of salvation;
4. Hear the way of salvation on radio or TV;
5. Meet a national believer who shares the story of the cross.

Failing that, the serious seeker could learn the "way" in a dream, in a vision, or by a direct visitation by the Holy Spirit.

The Bible is dotted with such accounts, and there are reports of missionaries who have made contact with tribes "anxious" to hear the Word to fill a void.

However, the fact is that man "loves darkness rather than light" and rejects God’s whispers.

He actively suppresses light. Eventually, through habitual sinful choices, he sears his conscience and extinguishes the light that illuminated him.

The Bible tells us the Holy Spirit is in charge of world evangelism. He rushes to any vacuum where a humble and seeking soul cries out to God.

Psalms 34:18 states, "The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as to be of a contrite spirit."

We must never forget that Christ grieves over anyone who is going to Hell. He offers mankind the opportunity to reach out to Him. God is love, fair, and just.

But man chooses his own eternal destination.
