Hi Marie,

This kind of question always makes me a bit, well, uncomfortable.

I really think it's inappropriate to even give an opinion about a person's ultimate salvation; let alone say, "No, he wasn't saved" or "Yes, he was saved." Salvation is of the Lord from beginning to end and the Judge of all the earth will judge righteously.

We all have opinions. And we all think about such things. But it seems to me that the only good that can come from such speculation is if one's contemplation of the Biblical record of another person's life leads to examination of one's OWN life according to the Scriptures.

Trust the past to God's mercy, the present to God's love and the future to God's providence." - St. Augustine
