It is a threat of judgement if one does not repent.

As much as this verse tells us that God has overlooked our wrongs before Christ was revealed to us, even unto people where the gospel is yet to reach He is doing the same.Even unto young kids who are not into understanding because of young age the same applies .The onus is unto the saved to spread the gospel .Otherwise the blood of these ignorant people will be on our hands by failing to heed the Great Commission of Christ .
