The Bible says:

It is appointed unto man, once to die, and after death, the judgment.

We do NOT know God's definitions of each word or phrase in that sentence. We don't even know if God adjusts His definitions in a tailor made way to each individual. We just don't know a lot of things about the moment of death.

There are stories of reliable Believers which are interesting but not the same as Canon Scripture.

I am confident that Roland Buck was right. Other convincing believers have said similar things and how shocked they were when God told them.

But all such is still GOD'S DOMAIN. It is hideously presumptive to think everyone will have a chance at the point of death to decide again. The Scriptures AND EVEN THE REPORT OF FOLKS LIKE ROLAND BUCK POINT OUT THAT SUCH IS ****NOT**** THE CASE.

One had best insure that one is on God's side NOW.

None of us have the promise of tomorrow chisled in stone from Mt Sinai.

I have felt that The Scripture about Believers being able to forgive and it being forgiven in Heaven may be one route which allows SOME to have an opportunity to choose at THE POINT OF death. But it's not something I'd try and make a doctrine. It's just a personal convinction which I believe God has given me insight on. I believe it's true. But it's not anything I'd want anyone to risk anything on--especially eternal life.

But I do forgive a long list of people and types of people at the slightest leading in my spirit. I want to give God every opportunity to apply that Scripture about whatsoever we forgive, being forgiven.

Right. There's nothing in the Bible that I know of that says an agnostic or aetheist can be saved after death. Of course with God anything is possible but we sure don't want make up theology that doesn't exist. As you say, we need to confess our sins and give ourself to Christ while alive on this earth.

One had best insure that one is on God's side NOW.

I couldn't agree more!
