I would argue that sincere repentance is fundamentally at odds with waiting until your deathbed. Sincere repentance requires being genuinely regretful for your wrongs and putting in the effort to right them. Genuine regret is impossible to schedule, so you could never really choose to do it on your deathbed. Even if you just happened to experience genuine regret on your deathbed, God could fairly interpret that as a reaction to your impending death and classify it as motivated predominantly by desire to avoid the consequences of your actions— after all, prisons are full of people who genuinely regret their actions but wouldn't if they hadn't gotten caught. And finally, repentance requires more than regretting your wrongful actions, it requires putting in effort to right them and that's close to impossible to pull off when you're on your deathbed. |
