I knew about Jesus from the age of four. I prayed and taught my siblings to pray. Yet my parents never ever spoke about God except to blaspheme. I believe everyone knows that there is a God from a very young age. 🙏🏽

[@CurtisDurden]

Glad to hear your story, I was in the same boat, just somewhat different circumstances. Think I was maybe 5 or 6, I remember praying and believing in God, even though I knew very little. It's hard to explain, but it was as if there was this invisible tether that linked me with him, from my naval to the heavens. Like those dixie cup phones people would make with a string in between them, it's the best visual representation I can think of lol

You need to read Isaiah 55:8 more often....we are not meant to agree not understand God. He has his reasons for Hell....

[@Elban19]

You should never be "embarrassed" to tell a sinner they're wrong. In fact, not doing so is worse considering you're carrying the cross to open the eyes of sinners.

[@ratchetwise440]

Do not "tell". Simply show=reveal." here's something to read...if'n you want"

[@epsteinsnecktie8690]

Threatening sinners with Hell dont always work. In fact that can often drive them further away from God.

I truly believe that God can & will reach all ears with the gospel. Thats why he said they are without excuse

So the nature of man has always been the same .We must want that ; Salvation . Most people don't recognize that Jesus is the only way . Thank you Sir kindly and Blessings 🙏🙏 you

[@tracywarren7332]

I was asked this question once and did my best to answer the question. After which I started researching this question so that I could be better prepared if I was ever asked again. What I discovered is that this is a question that divides scholars in the church. The exclusionist hold that the only way to Salvation is through the Saving Grace of Jesus. The inclusionist hold there are other ways in which God can provide for salvation for those who never heard the gospel. Then there is a third contingent who believe that it's through the blood of Jesus that you are saved but that God can use Supernatural means to get that message to the people who would believe but never heard the gospel through visitations, visions, and dreams. This past year as I read through the Bible I've been taken notes on this subject to fully understand each side of the debate and see where I will land. Scripturally the exclusionist have a stronger case. The inclusionist case is less strong on direct scripture. When all is said and done our God is a just God and though we may not understand His ways He is fair in everything he does.

[@kevintafur7111]

Hi, I really admire your intellectual honesty and transparency in search the Scriptures as the bereans did! Your comment is very insightful. I would incline towards the third option, because I think about the indigenous people in the Americas who lived deceived in paganism for thousands of years; I’m sure they had encounters with the wicked spirits who deceived them by giving them knowledge in exchange of worship and human blood sacrifice which they did and there’s proof of that. So I wouldn’t be surprised if the Lord used other means or even righteous angles to preach to these people. In the book of Revelation we can see angles preaching the everlasting gospel to human beings. But my conclusion is the same as yours: God can never be charged with unrighteousness or of being unfair. Our God is a just God. Grace and peace in the Lord Christ Jesus!!

[@CLEFT3000]

From a place of personal experience I would agree with the 3rd option. I am someone who grew up in not an agnostic but strictly atheistic household with mostly anything to do with religion, especially Christianity, shut down and out. I am trying to learn as much as I can now to try and make sense of things that I’ve seen, and are and have happened around me over the past couple of years. Slowly but surely.

Romans 2: 6 who will render to each person according to his deeds: 7 to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life; 8 but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation. 9 There will be tribulation and distress for every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek, 10 but glory and honor and peace to everyone who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 11 For there is no partiality with God. 12 For all who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law, and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law; 13 for it is not the hearers of the Law who are just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law to themselves, 15 in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them, 16 on the day when, according to my gospel, God will judge the secrets of men through Christ Jesus.

God writes His law on all our hearts. We know it is bad to steal things, to lie, to commit adultery, to murder, to be jealous, etc. If they have not heard the gospel, which is next to impossible, they still have the law written in their hearts.

[@rudirobberts4678]

I think to those who never had the chance to know about the gospel, they will be judged by their moral law thats written on their hearts. Remember God is the final judge, He knows the hearts and emotions of all but to those who reject the gospel and those who gave in to their fleshly nature will be condemed acordingly to their ways. Remember God is just but he is also rightious. You cnt go to heaven just on good deeds but only by God seeing in each mans heart on how he lived and thus give His grace to them.

[@sean4922]

Those people who never heard the gospel will all be brought to life in the millennium and given a chance to serve Christ or Satan that's why you have satan released at the end of millennium to test them.

[@armbar1981ok]

If anyone can go to heaven without accepting Jesus then He would not have to die on the cross!

[@andyperez7647]

Sorry I gotta disagree when you say forget about religion just please God. When talking about times prior to christ they all pleased God by their conscience law... But that was at that time. After jesus sacrifice its impossible to go to the father without Jesus. You cant apply the way of salvation to someone nowadays just by faith if its not faith in Jesus. If you hear the gospel and reject but want to climb up ur way to heaven without Jesus it will fail. Its biblical. We live in a different time. Nowadays its faith through the finish work of Jesus Christ. Its a tough concept but its the truth

[@jasonwells3772]

I had to come back to this video just to be sure that I heard right because I love so many of your videos Me. Pearl. Can I ask, do you believe that the apostle Paul's letters in the New Testament are Holy Ghost inspired. I've heard there are some denominations who refuse Paul's writings. This is the only way I can imagine that you or anyone else could possibly believe that a person can live purely enough to please God. Paul makes it abundantly clear that we cannot please God without faith. Jesus said that no man comes to the father but by him. Paul says that all those old testament saints were saved because of the fact that God counted their faith in His promise of a coming Messiah as righteousness. Paul makes it clear that they were saved because they looked forward to Christ and believed. I just can't understand how someone who seems so sound on so much can believe this.

“For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭1:20‬ ‭KJV‬‬

[@karimartin6317]

He does not believe that. Listen to his Romans to u understand where he is coming from. His teachings brought me out of a works mentality. He is 110% grace. This message is NOT addressing the born again, but those that haven’t heard the gospel and where they stand with God and why. Again see his Romans teaching chapters 1 and 2 about natural revelation. What do you suppose happens to those that never heard the Gospel? They knew God and He revealed Himself and they are guilty before God. That is what this is about.

[@karimartin6317]

Also, he’s saying that in Rom 1 and 2 (and in the instance where Jesus challenged the rich man to give it up) Paul did the same as Jesus did. He used the law to get people to see that they can’t possibly keep the law, so with their self righteousness firmly in the dirt, they are easy for grace. He’s showing how the OT saints were declared righteous because they BELIEVED God. It just so happens that their actions reflected that belief.

It was created for the wicked sinful and rebellious. Remember that just because you go to church doesn't mean you won't go to hell with Satan and his angelic demon spawn. Repent and stay close to GOD. Repent all the time and pray. Stay blessed, geater is he that is withing you than he that is in the world. Amen

[@wakeywakey8603]

True. That passage tells us the whole world will receive the 🐍👁 aka Mark of the Beast. It will change them into an A/C clone (like Agent Smith), the Tabernacle of Satan (like the Baphomet), the whore of Babylon (opposite of the pure bride of Christ). If Jesus Christ took the blame for the sins of the world so we could be counted guiltless before God.... The A/C does the complete opposite. He blames the world for his own sins & they will be counted guilty. That's why Satan is the Accuser. He IMPUTES his guilt onto lost souls who reject Jesus Christ as their Lord & Savior.

[@Lauren-vd4qe]

The Holy Spirit talks to ALL humans...that gut feeling...doing right or wrong...danger..happiness...it warns us or prods us...if one has never heard of Jesus..they can OBEY the Holy Spirit that is WITHIN us...and u will go to Heaven; God knows WHO is determined to do the RIGHT thing or the WRONG thing (feet that run rapidly to evil)...HE KNOWS how to divide the sheep from the goats...

[@Shmengeroonie]

I think when the rich man was tormented in 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 flames he asked GOD to send the prophets to go tell his brothers not to come here, so as he was told that they wouldn’t believe even the prophets, so there we see the stubbornness of man to totally disobey GOD so GOD must be harsh and just!

[@jimharmon2300]

I think Christians have made a religion out of grace . Grace only goes so far . Repent and change your way of thinking and living . Grace is for that time of your life . The Lord God knows that living all your life one way and then try to change to another will vary from person to person and for this reason God gives you grace , but you cannot live the rest of your life and continue to live the way you were . Some fast some slower but there must be a change of heart . God sees the heart you can fool fellow man but God sees the heart the soul itself .

[@jeffgray6291]

Never heard the Gospel of salvation through Jesus, only God knows, because God alone knows every mans heart. As for salvation before Christ God alone declared a man to be righteous. Let us leave this question for God alone. Because only God knows who haven't heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ into salvation. For scarcely do a righteous man make it in. God is Holy, And He is a just God, He alone knows our heart.

Pastor Pearl, you and I seem to be in the same boat. Ezk 28:18-19 seems to give me an impression of termination, and I can't see Father letting Satan off easier than he does us. Then again I have a problem reconciling the love it took to die for us sinners, yet have eternal torment for those not saved; specifically those geographically challenged to hearing the message. Then again, God has no limits, so He can get in touch with anybody He so chooses. We are not meant to know this answer, its the mind of God, not flesh, which ultimately matters. Maranatha.

at this point in history NO there is no other way but Jesus. He was being facetious ...Acts 4:12 John 14:6

[@joelblessing1532]

He didn’t say there was another way. Jesus is the only way. Jesus had to preach the gospel to those people as well. But God is fair and just there were some people who had never heard the word Jesus!! I would think Noah, Enoch, Job etc I would even go as far as saying Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, David. But did right in the sight of God and got saved on credit, until Jesus preached to them.

God is not who makes them suffer. They have a choice and so they belong to the wicked one. Hell is God removing things that come from him. So they are left with the father of sin only. Heaven is all the things that do come from God. This knowledge of good and evil can not just disappear this is why there is a heaven and hell. Its just you dont understand that there is no other option. This place of torment has to be because it is all things evil. So a separation was made.

Hebrew 11:4 4It was by faith that Abel brought a more acceptable offering to God than Cain did. Abel’s offering gave evidence that he was a righteous man, and God showed his approval of his gifts. Although Abel is long dead, he still speaks to us by his example of faith. Clearly we see it was Abel’s faith in God Vs Cain’s self righteousness. One can only please God by faith and not by works People wrongly interpret that Abel sacrifice was lamb and that’s why God accepted him ….😵‍💫 My question to them in the law of Moses did God accepted grain offering ? Yes He did

They may want to know if they still have something morally wrong so thus it not be anymore (is their will) An innate fear of sin.

I am surprised to see so many people comment that there is no eternal death in hell (eternal torture) and that once die and if go to hell than it's absolutely game over (simply disappear). If there is eternal life with Lord Jesus through Lord Jesus than why there is not eternal hell for those who never excepted Him as the Lord and Savior.

[@BLMann]

Can't really believe what I just watched. Jesus was the culmination and the fulfillment of the Law. There is no way to go to Heaven except through Him. Jesus is the only name under heaven given amongst men whereby we must be saved. I'm blown away right now. Yes, many people in the OT were justified by their faith. But to say that in modern ages, if you don't like christianity, you can go live good enough to please the Lord God and go to heaven; that is rank heresy. Blasphemy even.

I have marveled at the disagreement among Bible scholars down through the ages on tough topics like this. This question is I think quite a bit above our "pay grade" and getting right down to it not at all essential to our reconciliation to God. I guess it is just our human nature, the curiosity about things, that drives us to seek answers to questions like this, but is it productive? We are very limited in our knowledge and understanding of the things of God. Even with reference to scripture passages in answering this question it results in "best guess" or an interpretation of questionable authority. This I believe is because we are reaching too far. We'll get the answers to the many current mysteries someday, when God sees we are ready and He is willing to impart to us understanding. Till then lets just stick to the essentials of Scripture, trust Gods judgments and praise him.

[@xrendezv0usx]

For sure hell is real and there will be souls there forever. But it is also a great mystery which we do not fully understand. For example, hell exists OUTSIDE of space and time. Which means that it is possible that when Jesus went down into hell to preach the gospel and lead the captives into freedom, He may have been preaching the gospel to every soul that ever went down there and ever will. His sheep heard His voice and He took them up. But those who love evil will always hate His light and to them His mercy burns worse than hellfire. They turned away from the offer of the Lamb, and they eternally turn away from the offer of the Lamb. In any case, I am so happy and grateful that it is Jesus Christ who has final authority and judgment. I trust in His mercy and justice.

thats interesting that you said that people would just burn up if it was up to you. From everything that I've researched I cannot build a Doctrine about eternal torment anyhow. The Bible calls it the second death, and the Messiah said that the body and soul would be destroyed in hell, there's only one verse in the whole Bible that makes it sound like it would be forever other than that it just sounds like the consequences are Everlasting but not necessarily eternal torment that's Everlasting. So anyway you might not disagree with God because the way you feel might actually be in line with the way it actually is

Being humble I agree and believe in what you say and preach,,,,, but after Jesus died on the cross my understanding is he went to hell an opportunity to believe in him and come out of there and from that point on they also have a point to just here and believe in his righteousness and Trust in Christ and his sacrifice for us

Hello, thank you for your question. We have submitted it to Michael Pearl, although, we can not guarantee an answer. Michael and his wife, Debi, receive numerous questions every day and are not able to get to each with the time it would require.

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Yes - I would do the same, but... God created people with immortal soul, so there is no way to annihilate this soul. .... Then we have Luke 5:32 ... And the rest of it you explained in this video.

They that do not hear the gospel will be judged according to the works they did at the great white throne,hell is temporary and will be burned up in the lake of fire,the lake of fire is the second death for people going there it's the final mercy from the father to die and be erased(this is eternal and irreversible) hence for eternity.....I could be wrong but this how I understand the meaning of eternity

But what about what the word saids only one way to the Father but through the son ? , I know all have sinned and fall short , people who have never known Jesus and heard of him but believed in a God , a righteous God , loving , kind , and Holy God . And they live a life the best of their ability to their understanding “ it’s Jesus “ they just don’t know him as that name . ???

Alot of what you speak about is works. No matter how good are works are they do not justify redeem or sanctify us before his almighty throan.

did he just say theres another way to heaven apart from jesus?

[@normanjefferychester882]

No I don't think so!!! If they haven't heard they don't know!!!

[@thegreatescapechannelwatch298]

If anyone could be saved apart from Jesus, then why would Jesus need to come and be tortured to death? You cannot be righteous apart from Christ

[@jeremysmith5363]

That is may question too... I have no answer...except ....Jesus is the only way....It is a tough thing to understand....but if what mr pearl is saying is true...then Jesus was tortured and crucified for nothing because...it didn't matter.... a friend sent me here to watch this because he said it would clear it up...it did no such thing..It only made me ask more questions.. Was the it a needed sacrifice if it is this way....and how do you get past other verses in the bible? like act 4:12? john 3:36 john 14:6 1st tim 2:4-7 1st john 5:11-12 romans 10:12-15...mark 16:16 ... matthew 28:17-20... literally the last thing in matthew tell us what we MUST do...Go ye therefore and TEACH ALL NATIONS , baptizing them in the name of the father the son and the holy ghost, 20 teaching them to observe all things what so ever I have commanded you and , lo, I am with you always unto the end of the world, amen... the last thing he said...was a command...maybe I am wrong...but we are suppose to go teach to them...maybe their lack of salvation is on us for not following his commands...

Everyone has access to the gospel of the resurrection but choose to die the cowards death

God bless you for your teaching. I agree with the vast majority of it. I suspect on this subject, I agree with you completely but I don't think that I would explain it exactly the way that you do, if I may humbly say it. I suspect that you don't really think that anyone is saved due to good works. I suspect that you're describing an impossible hypothetical in that if someone actually followed the law perfectly his whole life, he could inherit salvation that way, but of course, no one can ever do that, save Jesus Christ. You did state that even the Old Testament saints were only saved due to God deeming them worthy to overlook their sins. None of them were sinless. In other words, salvation has always been of grace. This leads me to the point that I deviate a bit from you. I wouldn't say that some people in the OT was so righteous, God considered them deserving of salvation. I would say that no one's sin is imputed to them until knowledge has come and that person rejects the light that they're given. This takes care of the question of infants, the heathen who have never heard, the profoundly retarded, and also, OT saints. He who believes God is counted as righteous. In our present dispensation, believing God necessarily entails believing in His Christ, and Christ's atoning work. I believe if a person has not heard, but has the mental capacity to accept the gospel and he or she has received and believed the light that they've been given, God will shed more light and see that that person hears the gospel, whether by human witness or dream or vision. There is no chance that we can even begin to approach a standard that would be pleasing to God based on our own performance.
