That goes without saying, but just because they all gather in a building made by men, from a cult long overtaken by evil and keep doing their fakery as usual by pantomiming some hymns, doesn't mean they're accepting salvation...
You never know when the Holy Spirit convicts a soul. As believers we can witness but it’s the Holy Spirit that convicts. You cannot say there wouldn’t be not one convicted by Him in that building created by human hands. They heard the Gospel. And a good part of the world too! Look at the Great Revivals. Many were in tents, but many were in established churches and hundreds of thousands heard The Gospel and gave their lives to Jesus Christ.
and praying from a script...the main contention is that all in attendance heard that Jesus is THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, they can not refute that they have been made aware. EVERY knee shall bow and EVERY tongue will confess
I agree with this. They are lost, evil people, who desperately need our prayer because they are on the fast track to hell with the direction they are going. It would be a true miracle if any of them turned from evil and changed their ways because I think they are stiff necked and fervently against the Lord right now. But we did see Paul saved and he was one of the worst. So it’s possible.
They have willingly done evil for all their lives, most of them at least, they have consciously negated all of the mercy that was shown to them for a long time, and they'll keep doing just that until the end.
The only thing awaiting them is death and then nothingness, there is no salvation for the iniquitous.
I agree, God is in control. And God is with us. And can be where He wants.
But forgiveness of sin is not given to those who don’t trust in Him. It’s available for all, but only given out once you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
I do not believe that many of these people at the funeral have accepted Jesus as Lord.
That's not God's house fren... Do you still really think the church/Vatican is good?
I think that God is good, and He can manifest himself in any place that He likes.

KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS
Of course not. But it doesn't mean that they aren't either.
Thus, we must continue to pray for them all, as we pray for our fellow countrymen and family and frens.

The sacraments are valid and are the only true worship of God, as handed down by the apostles who were given authority by Christ
