Could the Old Testament saints be in Heaven in Jesus had not died on the Cross?
Could unborn babies go to Heaven if Jesus had not died on the Cross?
Could people who've never heard of Jesus go to Heaven if Jesus had not died on the Cross?
Could atheists who have been scared away by evil people posing as Christians go to Heaven if Jesus had not died on the Cross?

The wages of sin is death.Without Jesus and the finished work of the cross that is where all men will end.

Hey, you never know, maybe somebody will say, NO! :-p
I have no sermons yet. :-p I used to write a lot more to my generation, about purity, looking to God, not being bound to the devil, fighting against the world, etc. This is still in my mind, but not as much, I guess.

We have no choice in that matter. We spend our lives trying to regain eternal life. Hence, The Messiah.

Could people who've never heard of Jesus go to Heaven if Jesus had not died on the Cross? Could atheists who have been scared away by evil people posing as Christians go to Heaven if Jesus had not died on the Cross? For The Saints...Matthew 27 50 And Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit. 51 And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake; and the rocks were rent; 52 and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints that had fallen asleep were raised; 53 and coming forth out of the tombs after his resurrection they entered into the holy city and appeared unto many. For those without Christ? Yes! They can be saved by pleasing God!Romans 2 12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without the law: and as many as have sinned under the law shall be judged by the law; 13 for not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified: 14 ( for when Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves; 15 in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing them); 16 in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ.
