Hitler said he was a Christian. Stalin is said to have studied and understood much Christian doctrine. Is it possible they prayed to God in their last moments? Has the Lord forgiven them?

according to the bible- yup.

I seriously dout it, Hitler also said that he was not Anti-Semitic. I think if he did "accept" Christ in his final moments it would have been out of fear rather than sincere belief. Also, you can say things that you don't believe just to say them and some people would believe you. But if you don't act upon it, then they are just words. So if Stalin was a "Christian", why did he kill millions of people. He could say he was a Christian, but that doesn't mean that it's true

Ok you can't just accept Christ on your death bed and magically go to heaven. Although taking Jesus into your heart, accepting him as your Lord and Saviour is the most important part of salvation, it isn't all of it. To be saved you must also truly repent for your sins, and try to live a Christ-centered life. You try to do good, when you do sin you recognize, repent, seek forgiveness, and try to live a better life. Accepting Christ on your death bed is good and all but I don't think it can undo all the years of evil and sin you committed unless you truly repent and aren't just trying a last ditch effort to avoid Hell.

I believe so. The lord will forgive the most evil person on earth. So yes, if that is the case, they are probably in heaven.

Yep if they had done that and their heart was right they would be with God now. Otherwise no.
And yes, I do believe if someone prays in their last moments with the right heart they would be saved.

I'm always puzzled why people use these types of hypothetical questions to try to discredit a particular religion. I find it a great waste of time.

Jesus died for all sins
however just because you say you are a christian, does not mean that you are

Hitler said no such thing. He was raised in a Catholic home but repudiated Christianity his entire life.
And no, have you heard "Thou shalt not kill?"

Yes. God is able to see things better than you. If they truly were sorry, and only God knows that, then, yes, they would be.

Depends on YOUR personal beliefs, not mine on how this would be answered.
