I Just Hope God Is Forgiving
Question:
"What should I say to someone who acknowledges
his sins, but says, ‘I just hope God is forgiving’?"
Answer:
These people could be referred to as
"awakened, but not alarmed." explain that God is forgiving—but only
to those who repent of their sins. Ask him, "If you died right now, where
would you go?" If he says, "Hell," ask if that concerns him. If
it does concern him, ask, "What are you going to do?" Then tell him
that God commands him to repent and trust the Savior. If it doesn’t concern
him, speak of the value of his life, the threat of eternal damnation, and the
biblical description of hell. Caution him that he doesn’t have the promise of
tomorrow, and plead with him to come to his senses.
