Read Romans 10:13-15 – For, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
Man's only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God. Salvation is received through repentance toward God and faith toward the Lord Jesus Christ. By the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, being justified by grace through faith, man becomes an heir of God, according to the hope of eternal life.
It would be impossible to call for help on someone if we don’t know they exist. The world is lost and yet in earshot of their dire state is a Christ available to bring salvation. What a tragedy for any man to die and not have an opportunity for salvation when it is so abundantly available for all mankind. No man can find a Savior if He has been hidden from them. The mandate of the Christian is to carry the Good News to those who have not heard the message. It is not right that we can hear this message many times in a day when there are those who are yet to hear it for the first time.
