I was going to list 5 citations from the bible to address this issue, but my biases might have skewed their presentation. What I could not find, however, was a citation from the bible depicting the salvation of non-believers who have never heard of Jesus.

God is not just. God is God, whether we consider him to be just or not. Justice is judgment. To know judgment, you must know the mind of the juror. I think that God is incomprehensible. In that belief lies my humility. It is not within my power to adjudicate the fairness of a still-birth or the killing of millions of innocents in the Nazi gas chambers.No. I cannot rest on the notion that God is just. I must act.
