WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT DEATH

Death is certain but the Bible also speaks about untimely death! Make a
personal reflection about this. Very interesting, read until the end.

It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7): "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall h e also reap."

Here are some men and women who mocked God:

JOHN LENNON: Some years before, during his interview with
an American Magazine, he said: "Christianity will end, it
will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am
certain. Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple,
today we are more famous than Him" (1966). Lennon, after
saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ,
was shot six times.

TANCREDO NEVES (President of Brazil): During the
Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from
his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.
Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being
made President, then he died.


CAZUZA (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):
During a show in Canec?o (Rio de Janeiro ), whilst
smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said: "God, that's for you." He died at the age of 32 of
AIDS in a horrible manner.


THE MAN WHO BUILT THE TITANIC: After the construction of the Titanic, a reporter
asked him how safe the Titanic would
be. With an ironic tone he said: "Not even God can sink it" The
result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic.

MARILYN MONROE: She was visited by Billy Graham during a
presentation of a show. He said the Spirit of God had sent
him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had
to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus". A week later,
she was found dead in her apartment.

BON SCOTT: The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:
"Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way,
down the highway to hell". On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.


CAMPINAS/SP IN 2005: In Campinas, Brazil a group of
friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend. The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her
friends and she said to the daughter - holding her hand, who was already seated in the car: "MY DAUGHTER, GO WITH GOD
AND MAY HE PROTECT YOU."

She responded: "ONLY IF HE (GOD) TRAVELS IN THE
TRUNK, CAUSE INSIDE HERE IT'S ALREADY FULL". Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died, the car could not be
recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact.
The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their
surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none were broken.


Christine Hewitt: A Jamaican Journalist and entertainer,
said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written, in June 2006 she
was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle.


Many more important people have forgotten that there is no
other name that was given so much authority as the name of
Jesus. Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose again,
and he is still alive.

Great post Frank! So true, so true, our Christ is alive!

I truly believe God has made available for the witness of salvation to everyone that will be saved in the Church Age.

Sciptures says in Romans 1:19-20
Because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and God head, so that they are without excuse...

No one is without excuse knowing the Lord; however, I truly believe living in the 'Last Days' that people will be sooo rebellious and evil that they will not seek out God...

The bible says it will be like the days of Noah...

We, also, know that no one is without sin...

If we say we have no sin; then, we are a liar...

1 John 5:16 scriptures speaks about a 'sin leading unto death.'

Sometimes a Christian might sin so seriously that God judges that sin with swift physical death as in Ananiess and Sappihira of Acts.

They lied to the HS.

Now there's 'sin leading unto death' for those who keep repeating the same sin,and never repents of that sin.

God is merciful,but He could allow an early death for that person.

It's true....God shall not be mocked..

Galatians 6:7-9
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows that he will also reap.

For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

and let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart....
