What happens if someone hears the Gospel but does not believe?

Answered in 1 source

Hearing the Gospel without belief results in spiritual hardness and rejection of God's truth.

When a person hears the Gospel but ultimately does not believe, they face the risk of spiritual hardening. As noted in Romans 10:16, not all hearers obey the Gospel; this indicates that God's word may not have its saving effect on every listener. The sermon reveals that God's grace is restrictive according to His sovereign purpose, and such unbelief may lead to a state where individuals are no longer receptive to His truth. The urgency of belief is emphasized, as delaying or rejecting the Gospel can solidify a heart against future acceptance, leading to missed opportunities for salvation.
