Well, we start the week with a weighty question.

Will God judge a person for being born into a Muslim family and nation?

A very real question for global listeners like one young

woman who sent us today's question. Hello Pastor John I love listening to

episodes of Ask Pastor John. They are helping me grow in the faith, keep pressing on.

My story is a long one, but I'll keep it short. I was born into a Muslim family in an Islamic

country in North Africa. I still live here. Unlike my family, I became a

Christian and accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior and Treasure. My question for you

is this. Well my unbelieving family go to hell?

They don't know anything about the good news of Jesus Christ and I can't tell them about

him because they will not listen.

They call me crazy, and it's not safe to tell anybody in my country.

You may get killed for that.

Leaving Islam to become a Christian is illegal here.

So will my family go to hell because they're Muslim?

And how is that their fault since they were born that way?

And will God judge me for not sharing the gospel with them?

And if all things go by God's plan, does that mean it was meant for them to be Muslims?

Or is this by chance? What should I do? I know God is just, but I am deeply worried for my family.

Thank you. I hear six questions, which is overwhelming.

Yeah. One, will... questions which is overwhelming.

One, will my unbelieving family go to hell?
