They're responsible to respond to whatever truth was given to them. The Bible says that some aspects of God can be known from creation itself, so everyone has received some truth about god. Note that the OT saints were never exposed to Jesus, yet are still saved based on his sacrifice.

LOL - I didn't type it out, but reasoning such as this is probably another reason that the doctrine isn't spelled out more clearly.
