I already went through the gauntlet of many arguments for free grace from my dad so I am very well equipped for this task. Yet it's very doable however because eventually you have to face the reality that it's just not in the bible if you really believe in sola scripture.

The verse that won him over was this Luke 12:46-- I mean how can you argue against verses like this?

Luke 12:46 (NIV)
The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.

He also researched NDEs for himself and reached the same conclusions I did.

My brother and his wife are still in LCs. My sister in law is a FT grad, so yea... I'm probably close to being a heretic to her like Ohio said I was But she loves the Lord still so praise God!
