Is it as simple as the Sinners Prayer,,?
I have a situation similar to this.
My sisters son,Army Major,40 ish.
Faced with a brain cancer and is panicked by “going to Hell”
very sad,
Death - the last great adventure.
We are all panicked about going to hell. We rely on God’s grace offered by His Son as our only hope. That is all we have, our hope in His grace.
As the worse of sinners I have often prayed to be the dust under the feet of the saints as they enter the gate. If I find myself in darkness I will keep the hope alive for eternity.
Yes, it is as simple as the Sinners Prayer, and if they have never been baptized, just sprinkle water on them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit once that prayer is done....the sick cannot be taken to be immersed.
God is love ....we have opportunities to bring our family to God. Don’t let that opportunity pass. I had an Uncle who was made ready for death in this very way.
There is a ‘peace that passes all understanding’ once they have made that commitment and the fear leaves them, because then they aren’t going to hell.
Jesus was clear and simple....
“Is it as simple as the Sinners Prayer,,?”
No because the person may not completely understand what is happening. Jesus said “You must be born again”. You have to put away the old man and embrace the new man.
Here’s a better of example in a simpler form. Not perfect but good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCSUKIhjevo&list=TLloeB_AWqVGrHWQ0aF8wOZS-GpdG4Gvbr
