Not many funeral preachers, thank the Lord, have been crude enough to inform an audience that the deceased is in hell. However, too many ministers have “preached X into heaven.” You, preacher brother, may have known X all-your-life and “know” that he/she is with Jesus. Here’s hoping you’re right for their sake. Here’s hoping you’re right for your sake, since you made a strong assertion. The family, with little doubt, knows more about X than you do, and your statement may actually hurt the cause of God with them.
