How Much Do the Unreached Know?

We tend to ignore God’s revelation in nature, but general revelation is what makes the unreached accountable to God.

 

When we consider unreached and unengaged people groups, we typically think of them as knowing nothing at all of God. But a biblical theology of natural revelation and common grace drives us to a deeper understanding of the fact that all human beings are surrounded by the visible glory of God—and it’s precisely this fact that makes them accountable before their Creator.
