Is She Saved Or Not?

Q

My grandmother died a Catholic when I was in Jr. High. Are Catholics & Christians so different that she won’t be in heaven or what can I expect about her where abouts? Thank you for any information.

I’m one of those who believe that the Lord’s letter to the Church of Thyatira (Rev. 2:18-29) was written to the Catholic church. In that letter He hinted that some would be saved while others won’t, depending on whether they believe in the sufficiency of the Lord’s death or whether they believe it’s also necessary to perform certain religious works as Catholic doctrine teaches.

If your grandmother believed in her heart that the Lord’s death completely paid for all her sins, then she’s saved. (Rev. 2:24-29)
