Can a person be saved without faith in the gospel of Christ according to Scripture?

Les explains that the idea people can be saved outside of faith in the Gospel of Christ is a departure from the truth of Scripture and is dangerous. He stresses that there is no such thing according to Scripture. It is a narrow concept, but the Bible is a narrow book. He illustrates this by recalling a conversation with a man named Jimmy, who was convinced his vast group was the only group with salvation. Les pointed him to Matthew, where Jesus said wide is the way that leads to destruction and many go in, but narrow is the way that leads to eternal life and few find it. Scripture also shows God has always had only a remnant, even in Israel, the covenant people; only a small remnant were true believers.
