You must first trust that God is just in all that he does. Any behavior less than perfect would disqualify him from being Almighty God. In the story of Jonah, God spares the city of Nineveh (those without the law)for their repentance and adds that there are also 120,000 people there who cannot discern their right from their left. It is believed by myself and many others that God is referring to children. Today, the Holy Spirit is in the world and at work in the hearts of people pertaining to matters of sin, righeousness and judgement. We may be limited as to the number of people we communicate with in our lifetime, God isn't. Scripture is absolutely clear that "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God". "There is none righteous, no, not one." If we liken the trip to heaven as a swim to Hawaii from California. We can easily understand that even the best swimmer will drown before getting there. We need someone to take us there and that has been provided for us in the person of Jesus. He alone was free of sin and his death is acceptable payment to God for our sin. Of course, you have probably already heard this. For you and countless others there is no room to hide behind the excuse of those we suspect/belive have not heard. God is able to reveal himself to whomever he pleases and oftimes we assume people haven't heard from God. Try broaching the subject of knowing God with other people and you will find that his person has been considered by everyone, wether for good or bad. Even the fool " hath said in his heart, there is no God".
