Good for him. In Catholic Church teaching my understanding is there’ll be som considerable time and reparations in purgatory in a case like this
Fr Groeschel said that, yes, even a mafia hit man can confess and convert in confession if he has time in the end and makes a good confession to a priest in the sacrament
He knew of some such cases. He was from jersey city.
He added that of course he did not recommend this manner of conversion, recommending a life of conversion - now I’m paraphrasing hi- and not taking a chance on not having time for confession before a sudden death

With all due respect, as a Protestant , I pretty much disagree with everything above. The cross was sufficient enough to pay for any sin and all sins and I don’t confess to any human being. Only to God. The Bible says Jesus is my mediator. We read that in Hebrews.
Yes, I disagree with much of Roman Catholic theology and certainly on how a person is saved. But I respect individuals and I admire individual Catholics and their faith and commitment.
We can agree to disagree. God bless.
Where is purgatory mentioned in the bible?
There is no such thing as purgatory.
