Is that by accepting a savior even at the last seconds of their lives absolves them of all of a lifetime of sins and the misery that they have committed.

It's like the ultimate get out of jail free card. We know how that would appeal to the exploiters and psychopaths.

Every one of them believes it as well as divine providence.
