so what happens to the people in backward tribes and those who live in inaccessible regions of the world who never heard of jesus and or his word?

Nothing... They'll live their lives like they always did then they'll die and their bodies will rot, unless they get mummified or fossilized... And that's all...

@maxx

It didn't appear like there was a side to take here... You asked a question, I gave an answer...
Did you intend a specific group to answer like evangelicals or something? You should have mentioned it... Sorry...

@maxx

 This is a casual debate. Everyone just shares their opinions. Not everyone who responds has to disagree with you. 

 You can start a formal debate if you want that.

no, I was attempting an debate so I did not expect such an awesome answer@Plaffelvohfen

i see, a casual debate is nothing more than a mish mash of ideas and random opinions; thanks for the info; i will look into the other types of debates@AlexOland

God’s Righteous Judgment

You therefore have no excuse, you who pass judgment on another. For on whatever grounds you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things. And we know that God’s judgment against those who do such things is based on truth. So when you, O man, pass judgment on others, yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment? Or do you disregard the riches of His kindness, tolerance, and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness leads you to repentance?

But because of your hard and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. God “will repay each one according to his deeds.” To those who by perseverance in doing good seek glory, honor, and immortality, He will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow wickedness, there will be wrath and anger.

There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil, first for the Jew, then for the Greek;but glory, honor, and peace for everyone who does good, first for the Jew, then for the Greek. For God does not show favoritism.

All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but it is the doers of the law who will be declared righteous.

Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law, since they show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts either accusing or defending them. This will come to pass on that day when God will judge men’s secrets through Christ Jesus, as proclaimed by my gospel. (Romans 2:1-16)

that is a bit apart from what I am asking although I get your idea; however the bible also says one must believe and accept jesus to get into heaven; so what about the stone age tribe deep in south American jungles who never heard of jesus, let alone the written word?@Neopesdom
