Shalom @ashwin2020

That's quiye a tricky situation that you are in. 

If your father refuses to see sense, then perhaps you can lead by example and show more love and tolerance for your grandfather. This may perhaps shame your father into reassessing his position. 

But the most important thing for you is to not start hating him. Avoid this at all costs.  Break down that wall before it gets built, as one day you might find yourself acting like he does today. 

Understand that your father's threshold of care and tolerance is lower than yours and have sympathy towards him because of that. 

Again, try to lead by example rather than use threatening words about hell, as this won't improve the situation. He must act out of love, not fear. 

Finally, pray, pray and pray for your father. You'll be surprised how Yahweh can change the heart. And who knows, maybe that's exactly what Yahweh wants in this situation -for you to put it in His hands entirely. 

Love & Shalom

Praying for you.  Love even your enemies Jesus said.  It's hard situation for sure.  Keep praying as Tze said is great.  Also, share the gospel with your grandfather as he is very old.

Amen and amen. It is God, Himself, Who draws people to Jesus as Savior. We simply share what He is to us, and the Spirit of YHWH (God) does the rest! Shalom.

Just two points. Heaven is dependant on being a Christian.

 

Second all you can do is demonstrated Christian love in action to your Grandfather, to your Father and to your Mother.

Show them the sacrifical love of Jesus in how you act and care and serve them.

Show them also by your words and pray for them, that they might see and listen and understand and be saved.
