Do people who live in countries where christianity is illegal still get into heaven if they dont believe in christ? [Spirituality & Religion]

This question is only for christians/people who believe in hell. If someone grows up n lives somewhere where learning about Jesus is illegal, shouldn't they get a free pass into heaven since they never got the chance to learn about Christ? I know that there still is some Christians in these countries, but they risk imprisonment and death for trying to learn/teach the word of god. I just feel that people shouldnt have to risk their lives to get into heaven, and that those who chose not to learn/follow Jesus for fear or losing their lives n their freedom don't deserve to go to hell.

Now what did Jesus say? "Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it."

@hippyjoe1955 that's a hard thing for me to wrap my head around and a reason i believe in god but not in the conventional rules of hell and how people get there. You have to change your life and live a certain way to NOT to go hell, and if you live somewhere where Christianity is illegal you have to break the law and risk your life, maybe even get brutally tortured and killed, to get into heaven. Im sorry but that sounds ridiculous. Just as bad as saying people who aren't baptized dont go to heaven. Like if a baby dies before being baptized they wont go to heaven, that's insane! I know that's a catholic thing but still.

@Sweetguy024 The point you are missing is that Christianity is a transformation carried out by Yahweh on each individual Christian. Getting into heaven or going to hell is for the rubes and not for real Christians. If you focus on the temporary you get sidetracked from the Eternal.
