If God will grant them repentance to acknowledge the truth,
and they are baptized in Jesus name and filled with the Spirit.

I have heard a woman (an elder in a backslidden holiness church) say from the pulpit (while teaching a Sunday school-type class) that she believed in death bed repentance. The pastors (her brother and sister-in-law) didn't correct her, therefore leading to the assumption that they saw no error in her statement.

If God grants repentance, and he may.
The thief waited till last minute or at least found favor with God. So if it is a matter of timing, we know that God doesn’t reject someone just because it’s a few moments before their passing. It would not be a wise thing to put off just counting on God moving in this way, because if an individual with knowledge and all the things are in the right place, it seems that they would harden their heart in rejecting repentance during their life, so it would just be a dangerous game to play definitely not wise but the final judgment is up to God

A backslidden holiness church?

"Former" in the sense that I went there regularly with my mother.
