Obeying the Gospel

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

What is our job as Christians?

Jesus said, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Mathew 28:18-20

What will happen on the day of judgment to those who have never heard of Jesus and died?

"For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel." Romans 2: 12-16

Is it better than not to read the word of God and be judged by our conscience?

God says, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children." Hosea 4:6

Therefore we must make sure that we first accept the gift that Jesus gave us (the death for our sins) and than obey God's word. We must also tell others about the gospel.
