The key words here are " he believes God can't help him". There is a human world and then a spiritual world. They coinside with each other. There is a prince who rules the spiritual world here on this earth. His name is Lucifer. He is very intelligent, beautiful, a master of music and he is in warfare with God. The one thing he loves to target is God's creation, us. He doesn't give a crap about us. We are just part of a plan. He watches for our weakness and acts on it. One of his best plans is to convince people that they are beyond hope. Somehow tell your dad that nobody is beyond hope. God will reach down.... if he will reach up.

God has given His word. We are free moral agents. If we decide to answer in a manner that is kind and loving then maybe we have been influenced by God. We all judge. It is human nature to judge...even when we say "you shouldn't judge" then guess what you have just done? Especially when someone does not believe like we do? Everyone has opinions and beliefs. For some reason we all think ours is the only one that is right and everyone else has got to be wrong or flawed in their way of thinking. I believe in God and His all powerful dominion but I do not force my opinion on others. In the end I can not say it was someone else's fault for the way I lived my life.....only mine.

If you have asked the Lord to be your personal friend and savior then you pray through problems instead of giving in to these thoughts. But if someone who is a true christian and has been brought down so low in spirit that they allow demonic powers to convince them this is the only way out, still go to heaven. It is the same as an alcoholic who is saved, drive and wreck ending their life. God said once you are his, no one can puck you out of His hand. We are His children and just like our own children, we don't always act like we should.
