Hebrews 9.27 - The Point of No Return

Hebrews 9.27 - The Point of No Return

How do we know when someone is too far gone to be saved? Jonah sinking to the bottom of the sea appears unreachable.  Drowned men cannot repent! “It is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment” (Hebrews 9.27). Since “the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6.23) unchecked sin can hurl us beyond the point of salvation.  So far that the Apostle John says, “There is sin that leads to death; I do not say that one should pray for that” (1 John 5.16). But Jonah received amazing grace. People may call upon the name of the Lord with their final breath. While there is still a heartbeat, there is reason for hope. But to reject Jesus as Savior and Lord is absolutely unforgivable. He alone is Lord of Sea and Sky, Sovereign over all, and Savior to all who cry to Him.
