That doesn't make sense. Kafir literally means non-Muslim, and you are referring to the present time, not the future.
So if someone calls a non-Muslim a kafir, they are a kafir, that's a fact. If they however embrace Islam then you cannot call them a kafir anymore.
It's like let's not call a Muslim, Muslim, just incase they apostate and turn away from Islam so they are no longer a Muslim and are a kafir so by calling them a Muslim, I have wronged because I shouldn't have called them that because they are now are a kafir and not a Muslim so I should've just kept my big mouth shut and avoid using the word Muslim or kafir.
What I've heard is that, you shouldn't call a Muslim, whatever sin he might have or is committing a kafir, but I've never heard/read that you shouldn't call a kafir a kafir.
