Doesn't really matter. A person could die 10 minutes after accepting Christ. They would still be in that church.

This is an easy question to answer from the Bible, but let me ask you this;without the scriptures how would you know that what you believe is correct?
That's why I mentioned living an honorable life and not a specific belief system. Many people do not believe that the Bible is the correct belief system. To each his own.

So what does the Bible say will happen to a person who lives a good life without being exposed to Christianity?

Reincarnation is silly, if it were true then everyone would have a recollection of pass lives, as Jesus did when He became a man. Jesus did not forget who He was and where He came from. Human beings are so so easily influence by evil spirits.....it is as easy as wind moving over the ocean, as the book of Revelation shows. It does not take much for demons to influence the human mind, deceiving them into having false memory.

But then, that's another topic.
Well, that is an interesting way of looking at it.

I suppose then that any person could have sacrificed himself to redeem all sinners and then be worshipped as the Son of God? Or was Christ different in some way? If so, why isn't it reasonable to believe that he would remember things that the most people would not?

The lifetime of a human being isn't even a a blink in the time span of eternity. I think it is silly that a Divine being would judge humans through all eternity for what is less than a nanosecond of that time. THAT does not make sense to ME.

In short, you have your beliefs and I have mine. I make it a point to treat the beliefs of others with respect even if I do not agree with them, and I expect the same.
