Salvation to others

[Antares 531]

Can someone help me locate those bible passages that tell us that
those people who never had an introduction to the Lord will be saved
if they lived a prudent life. I'm talking of people such as the Native
Americans, Pacific Island people, Australian Aborigines, etc., who
lived before Europeans came to the Western Hemisphere.

There is a passage, or several passages that seem to say that these
people will be saved if they were kind and gentle toward each other
and not motivated by greed or evil.

I can not find this bible passage but I remember having read it many
times before.

Thanks, Gordon

Found it!

Romans 2:12 For as many as have sinned without law will also perish
without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by
the law 13 (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of
God, but the doers of the law will be justified; 14 for when Gentiles,
who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these,
although not having the law, are a law to themselves, 15 who show the
work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing
witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else
excusing them) 16 in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by
Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.
