Introduction
The question regarding the Destiny of the Unevangelized has left many scholars seeking answers in the scripture to see what GOD has to say about these people. It is unjustified to say what punishment GOD will give these people. Truth be told, Christ is the only way to heaven, he is the way, the truth and light. This paper discuss a different argument posed by theologies all over the world as we try to find the right answer for this long-standing question.
To begin with, Armnians and Calvinist have found themselves in a tag of word over their ideologies. None of us is justified to judge the others ideology. Different individuals interpret the Bible in different ways though the message is the same. Some theologies argue that knowing GOD can take you to heaven while another suggests that GOD will forgive individuals who never got the chance to hear about him.

If this person heard a sincere belief of one supernatural being, learn the gospel would not prevent him from entering the kingdom. (Jeremiah 29:13) seeks GOD and He will provide more light. The Bible also reminds us of GOD reaching the Ethiopian Eunuch in an extraordinary way (Acts 2:26-40).
When GOD was creating man, the largest authority he gave man was the power to choose. Definitely, this is evident up to date, man is free to decide where he will go, but it is the desire of the Lord that we all make it to heaven. During the judgment day, man will have already decided his destiny. GOD will not condemn those who never believed in Him. If a person never heard the gospel, he will be judged according to their conscious. Here is an example I like to use. Let assume some lived in Africa in the early 16th century, at this time the missionary was yet to arrive in Africa therefore, the people of this era never heard the gospel of Christ. Where will they go? GOD will judge them according to their conscious; if a person of this era did something ‘knowing’ it was wrong definitely that will qualify for a sin. This is bec...
