I'm saying I'm not God and I don't know.  I've heard that verse used to proof 
text the issue before and it isn't persuasive to me to the extent that I can 
proclaim I know the answer to when, or if, God ever withdraws his grace.

Are you saying that God's grace is still offered after we die? Or that
God sometimes withdraws his grace from someone before they die?

If the former, the standard Christian answer to that is Hebrews 9:27,
"It is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment".
