Confused

The more I read the Bible, the more questions I have. Rob Bell would say that's me acknowledging the fact that I don't know all the answers, but it feels more like me saying that my faith isn't all that strong. Either way, I have questions. I'm reading in Acts right now, and I'm thinking about the time when Jesus was on the Earth. There's no way that anyone other than the thousands around Israel could have known about Him being here. Peter is talking to the Sanhedrin about Jesus in Acts 4:12, and he says, "Salvation is found in no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." That makes me wonder about all those people at that time who wouldn't be able to know His name. People too far away to realize their savior had come. What happens to them?
