And I genuinely want to hear someone tell me why, if Jesus is the only way, did Native Americans not know about him... Does that make sense? [/quote] you are on the right path. not just native americans. think about all of the people worldwide who never even heard of jesus until generations later. [/quote] [color=darkblue][/color] There is no flaw in the Bible. Jesus is the only way. Prayerfully read Romans chapter 1; it explains that no one dies without a chance to know God. There was an age of conscience; in the Old Testament the age of Law and sacrifices is described. The New Testament clearly shows us that Jesus fulfilled all the laws and died to cover our sins. He made The Way to cover our sins. Verses 18-21 addresses the question of the "heathen" or the people before Christ who never had access to the Scriptures and to the knowledge of the Cross of Christ. They knew by instinct; God has put His knowledge in their hearts. Men knew God from the beginning. There is enough knowledge in conscience and in nature to induce an awe and reverence for the Creator. Now that the knowledge of the Cross has permeated the earth, no one has an excuse to be ignorant of the Cross, either. God judges men by the light they have received. Anyone anywhere who has not received the knowledge of His salvation in our present age has no excuse. Those in the age of conscience and nature saw His revelation and no one has an excuse! [/quote] you are insane and should be institutionalized IMMEDIATELY if you truly believe that. Just by your words YOU don't know "Jesus". I'm not saying that I'm an authority on it, but I know DELUSIONAL when I hear it. [/quote]

And if not.. Why not? We're they not important enough to be taught the ways of Jesus? I mean, if we're all God's children..wouldn't everyone have known about Him?
And would Christians of early American days have condemned them to Hell because they did not accept Christ as their savior, even though they knew nothing of him?
Please forgive my ignorance.. I'm just looking for answers
