Q: Why can't we be forgiven after death? God's mercy is forever, but the question is whether you've received it through Christ. Hebrews: "it is appointed for man to die once, then judgment" — implies permanence of decisions upon death. No biblical reason to think post-mortem opportunities exist.
Q&A — forgiveness after death
God's mercy is eternal but must be received. Hebrews 9:27 implies death finalizes one's spiritual state. God could theoretically give post-mortem chances but there's no biblical indication he does.
