Is it too late for my grandma?
My grandmother is not a nice person. No need to delve in to it here. For purposes of this example, take my word for it. She is also not religious. So, my own agnosticism/atheism being irrelevant to the conversation, here's my question to you religious types out there:
Right now, by my understanding of how sin works, she's doomed to hell when she dies because of 80 years of unclean living. Imagine if some missionaries were to visit her today, she were to have a breakthrough, and wholeheartedly accept Jesus Christ as her savior, ask for forgiveness, and be born again. Is that enough to get a ticket in to heaven? Can a lifetime of iniquity be atoned in a moment? What if she were to die the next day, would she still get in because God knew she truly did whatever-it-is you have to do to be forgiven?
