Jesus said narrow is the way that leads to life and few will find and we know that this Jesus Himself. That means all non-christian religions is the part the broadway that leads to destruction.
 
That’s true, brother ;), but everybody who is not in communion with the Catholic Church is currently on that wide road. But its never too late to change the road you’re on, not until our Lord Jesus declares you dead (see Matt. 9:23-25). And those who repent at the “twelfth hour” will be saved, and we shouldn’t “grumble” about that, but rejoice! (Matt. 20:1-16) And pray for people to convert now. 👍

Jesus is the Way the Truth and the Life. But Paul wrote in Romans 2
There is no partiality with God. All who sin outside the law will also perish without reference to it, and all who sin under the law will be judged in accordance with it.
For it is not those who hear the law who are just in the sight of God; rather, those who observe the law will be justified. For when the Gentiles who do not have the law by nature observe the prescriptions of the law, they are a law for themselves even though they do not have the law. They show that the demands of the law are written in their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even defend them on the day when, according to my gospel, God will judge people’s hidden works through Christ Jesus.

Thus the notion that God CAN give grace to “the good pagan” and if He does,it is by the graces that flow from Jesus’ sacrifice.

Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would teach the Church everything she needed to know. Not necessarily EVERYTHING that is known to God.

We are absolutely obligated to “Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to all nations.” But at the same time we should not be triumphalistic, but ever-grateful.
