Can a mother's faith allow her ungodly children a passage to heaven?
John 14:2 - 4
ESV - 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

We must receive what God has revealed. And trust what He says. Jesus said we are to give God what is His. The essence of faith consists of receiving what God has revealed, and can also be defined as trust in God of the Holy Scriptures. It is really a personal experience. Consider this. In Genesis 3:20, we read that Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living. Adam and Eve had two children, Cain and Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep. Cain was a tiller of the ground. Both brought offerings to the Lord. Abel's offering was accepted, Cain's was not accepted. Abel respected God by faith. Cain did not. He offered his own work. God wants each person to believe Him and honor His words. I cannot make my children believe in God. They have to choose God. It's all up to every individual. When God, Jesus, sees faith, sins are forgiven.
