Hey, a nice big heaping bowl of Yopios.

Sorry, that passage doesn't mean what you seem to think it means.

The meaning couldn't possibly be more clear:

Abraham: "Listen Dives, your brothers have the scriptures, the have Moses and the Prophets.

If they won't repent after hearing the scriptures, then they won't repent even though someone came back from the dead to tell them."


So no, (as xJones said), it shouldn't take an apparition of a departed person to get people to turn from their sins and put their faith in Jesus.
