How does God reach those who never heard the Gospel?


The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.  Romans 1:18-20
            According to Romans, yes—through creation.  God has revealed himself to the world, those who hear the Gospel and for those that don’t, he communicates through creation.  Creation was meant to make people ask the question, “where did this all come from?”  Some turned to their own stories and gods.  Others realized there was a force and power behind all this, a supernatural beings who made stars and flowers, elephants and mountains.  So much diversity and endless exploration!
            That’s why the teaching of evolution is so dangerous.  The world wants to take God out of the creation equation, but that’s the biggest platform he has because it explains how it all started and where it all ends, two things science cannot truly explain.
