How does the Tibetan pass on to his children the necessities for salvation when he doesn't even know that he is damned?
Why do many if you heretically think that these Hindus/pagans/etc are guiltless in their ignorance about the Church? I’ve heard multiple conversion stories where Muslims wanted to know why Christians worshipped Christ, and He appeared to them physically or in a dream and answered their questions. Then He sent them to a Christian for further instruction.
.
These miracles are happening in the Middle East as we speak! In our times! And these Muslims have google and books and tv to learn about Christ. Yet...He still performs miracles for those that want the Truth, even if they could get the Truth naturally.
.
So, in days where technology didn’t exist, when ignorant natives were on islands, or in forests, or near remote mountains, and no living Christian was within thousands of miles, we wonder how God can reach these people? Really?
.
Those that invent “BOD for the ignorant” or “rewarder God” heresy, have such a low amount of Faith in God, and His goodness, His mercy, His love of each one of us, that I question if they were ever really Catholic. ...It’s borderline blasphemy.
