However, I think you can like extrapolate certain things in one way. Part of that is still saying you can earn it in that he's doing the right things. And he doesn't even know he's doing it. He's doing it because.

So I think God is not going to judge us based on what we don't know. We would hope. So I am optimistic that I personally would not damn that individual because I don't know what's going on there. And God is more than capable to reveal himself. I mean, Paul says in Romans that God's divine attributes and invisible qualities have been shown throughout creation so that no man is without excuse.

And I think that like... But the only way to heaven is through Jesus Christ. So that's where it does get tricky. And there is a sense of... Jesus saying, I'm the way, the truth, and life. No one comes to the Father but through me. I would say we have an imperative to tell that person about the God that they believe in and who that is.

And that's what Paul does in Acts chapter 17 when he goes to Athens and he goes to the Areopagus and he says, you have a shrine to an unknown God. In one sense, that's silly, but let me tell you about the unknown God. So that you go to the right place. That you're worshiping, put a name to it, and actually tell you the person that your heart is actually crying out to, because you bear his image.
