Do you believe that someone who dies without being saved (in whatever way you prefer) will be punished in torment forever, after they die?
Why isn't he saved? It's not like he hasn't heard. After all, there surely are plenty of churches in this country. Plenty of television preachers. Plenty of radio preachers. Unless...he just chooses not to believe.

Good point. So if he isn't saved, I guess he'll deserve his eternal punishment! Oh, but wait. We all deserve that. Even Christians. It's just that Christians aren't going to get what they deserve, and the rest of us will get what we deserve.
Right?

Hebrews 13:23 Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty
If he isn't saved now, and doesn't get saved before he dies in prison, he will have been punished here on earth for a few decades and then forever after he dies. If he gets saved, he will be punished here on earth for a few decades and then be rewarded forever after he dies.
Which fate would you give him, if it were up to you? If you had the chance, would you share the gospel with him and lead him to Christ?

Timmy you seem to be overly concerned for what the hereafter holds
for a person. I think God is dealing with you! Give in!
