One of my friends starred in a Christian movie with his wife about Tanya Faye Tucker in Texas. She was an axe murderer, but got saved through the prison ministry. She married the chaplain even though she was scheduled for lethal injection. The husband tries desperately to get her off death row since she got saved, but the governor would not do it. But she accepted her sentence knowing that God forgave her and that she was going to see her Savior soon. She understood that she had to pay the consequences for her actions even though she got saved.

It isn't any different if you smoke all your life, and then quit smoking later, but you still get lung cancer.

Great article.Thanks.
