This is a strong Word that challenges the heart of our Christianity.
Torben is Danish and runs an international evangelism campaign from Florida.
So if he may be excessive in one area we should not hear him in another?
Did you watch the video?

Yeah! Plus God's grace is truly amazing.I watched the video up until the 3 minute mark where he claims Ravi is lost. I also read what's underneath the show more link and he too also isn't proclaiming the full gospel with that proclamation. How? He forgot the lesson of the thief on cross beside Jesus. That during the very short time prior to their deaths, Jesus told that life long thief you will be with me in Paradise. Why is this important? We don't know what personally transpired between Ravi and God during the short moment before his death. A full gospel would have included that knowledge.
If you had given him ten seconds more, you would have heard him say that he doesn't know if Ravi repented in the end, and if he did then fine, but if he didn't, he was lost - which seems like a reasonable take on the situation.I watched the video up until the 3 minute mark where he claims Ravi is lost.

Here's a more thorough examination of this issue by another Christian apologist and Evangelist:
I realize that none of the participants in this thread is Catholic and I'm not Catholic, either. But I find it useful to remember the 6 eternal sins in the view of Thomas Aquinas:This is a strong Word that challenges the heart of our Christianity.

Only God knows whether Ravi's heart and whether he committed any of these sins. Thus, I cannot agree with Torben's conclusion that "Ravi is lost."
I just finished reading the report and it is a lot more serious than expected. We're not talking here about a sin or a series of sins but about a life style full of lies & deceit, systematic abuse (sexual and psychological), and stealing of hundreds of thousands of dollars from the ministry.Ravi's ministry hired an independent investigator who presented compelling evidence.
