What about people who don't know about Jesus? Where will they reside after they die?
So you're saying all the aborted babies, all the children in 3rd world countries that never heard of Jesus

Do you believe that if God wants you to be saved, He will be sure that you hear the message before your life on this earth is over?

Only those that hear about Jesus and refuse him are accountable. Those that have never heard the message are not accountable and will be with Him in heaven!

i kno i will recieve much criticism for my view but i feel i must express....
all the aborted babies all the children and all the people in 3rd world countries...are in hell....
i kno ull fully disagree, but im gonna try and explain why.
for someone to be saved they must have an oportunity to come to faith through the work of the Holy Spirit, but these people dont get the oportunity, therefore; they goto hell.
they are held acountable by original sin. This is the sin we all inherit from adam. his fall and sin was passed down into all subsiquent generations...just look at his first offspring one killed the other...so we have sin...even from conception(Psalm 51:5).
so since all people are sinful from conseption, therefore; if they cant come to the Spirit they goto hell.
God Be Praised

I'm afraid she was born that way, n2calvin. I'm also afraid that my telling her about Christ would make any impression.

Romans 1:18-25
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man--and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

Psalm 51 is not talking about original sin, the whole Psalm is a hyperbole (Overstatement for emphasis). It was a terrible sin David committed, and he new it's pain and agony, he went before God about it in humility. Also there are other Psalms that use hyperbole, it's the nature of Psalm Poetry. Psalms are not just straightforward scripture. It's poetry as well.
-About those who have never heard of Christ, It's not for us to judge whether they are saved or not, once we meet them, if we do, we must proclaim the message, and if they reject it, they are gonna be held accountable for that (John 12:48).
-In the end, it's God's choice, not ours. All babies, children are automatically saved, if they never make it to the age of accountability.
