The question of whether and how people who have not had the chance
to hear the gospel can be saved goes back to the beginnings of
Christian reflection. It has also become a much-debated topic in
current theology. In Will Many Be Saved? Ralph Martin focuses
primarily on the history of debate and the development of responses
to this question within the Roman Catholic Church, but much of
Martin's discussion is also relevant to the wider debate happening
in many churches around the world. In particular, Martin analyzes
the Dogmatic Constitution on the Church, the document from the
Second Vatican Council that directly relates to this question.
Contrary to popular opinion, Martin argues that according to this
text, the conditions under which people who have not heard the
gospel can be saved are very often, in fact, not fulfilled, with
strong implications for evangelization.
