Conan O'Brien Mocks The Bible, Wants To Go To Hell

Luke 16:22-24, “And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.”

One of the most famous Late Night TV hosts is Conan O'Brien. On his popular NBC's 'Late Night With Conan O'Brien' (1993-2009), in 2008 he sang a horrible song mocking the reality of Hell. Conan Mocks God! Romans 1:18, “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness.” Here is the song if you want to hear it, but I warn you the lyrics may be offensive to some listeners. This was aired on national television. ...


“I'm a Gonna Go To Hell When I Die” —Conan O'Brien

Conan O'Brien makes a mockery of Hell. In the despicable song titled: “Go To Hell When I Die” by a group of perverts who call themselves The Booty Boys, Conan is the featured singer. Conan has really hit rock bottom with this sleaze. Here are the sinful lyrics:
Editor's note: The crude lyrics cited in this song may be offensive to some readers. 

Here are the sinful lyrics:

I'm Gonna Go To Hell When I Die
I'm Gonna Go To Hell When I Die
I'm Gonna Go To Hell When I Die
I'm Gonna Go To Hell When I Die

I can't be saved, it's too late for me
I'm going to H-E Double L when I D-I-E
You could say I'm messed up, but I'm keepin' it real
I'll sleep with your mom for a home cooked meal

Give a guy with no legs a new pair of shoes
And give Ben Affleck a bottle of booze
I Call up Nick Lechey, tell him he's gay
Then ask Jessica to spell Chevrolet

ChorusI sent Al Roker a box of crullers
With a dozen jelly donuts and a staple remover
I sent Abe Vigoda a cookie basket
With some flowers and a catalogue to pick out a casket

Jacked Michael J. Fox for his time machine
Then I grabbed a couple hookers and Charlie Sheen
And got 'em all to take a trip back in time with me
So we could pee on R. Kelly when he turned 14

ChorusI pick Kirstie Alley up out of the gutter
Throw her in a ring with Sally Struthers
Cover them with syrup and melted butter
And see how long it takes before they eat each other

I challenge Stephen Hawkings to some one on one
Slam dunk on that bitch like Alan Iverson
Tried to race Andy Dick but he lost control
Ran his mother-f**king car into Billy Joel

ChorusPush an old lady down a flight of stairs
And pull out the rest of Ron Howard's hair
And lock a PETA member in a room full of bears
And hook Gary Coleman up with a job at the fair

Keep an unofficial count of Star Jones' chins
Cast Hillary Swank and Matt Damon as twins
Start a petition that Conan will hate
Get the Tonight Show cancelled in 2008

SONG: 'GO TO HELL WHEN I DIE'

Do you think God is humored by such wickedness? Do you think God laughs in good humor while unsaved sinners sing about going to Hell. God's wrath rests upon all Christ-rejecting sinners. Psalm 7:11 states that God is angry with the wicked EVERY DAY. We read in Proverb 14:9, “Fools make a mock at sin...” To no surprise, Conan O'Brien legally officiated over Late Night TV's first same-sex marriage in New York on November 4, 2011. That is shameful.

All they do on Late Night TV is joke about sin—homosexuality, adultery, drunkenness and going to Hell. In another episode, Conan portrays Jesus as being a homosexual voyeur (a viewer who enjoys seeing the sex acts or sex organs of others). This is how they portray the sinless Lamb of God on TV. This is the horrible way they mock and desecrate the Son of God. Most of their guests do the same. Everything is about sex, perversion, substance abuse, mocking God's Word, blaspheming the Lord, et cetera. Why should God bless America? No Sir, we need for God to curse our wicked nation.

Conan sings that he's going to Hell when he dies. Sadly, he will one day be condemned out of the words of his own mouth. Matthew 12:36, “But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.” How much more shall men give account for blasphemy? Kindly, Conan's Roman Catholic religion won't help him escape the fires of Hell on Judgment Day. Religious sacraments never saved anybody. ONLY through faith in the cross of Jesus Christ WITHOUT WORKS can anyone be saved, NOT through religion or personal merit. 

I don't condemn anyone, God forbid; for the Bible condemns all of us as guilty, rotten, hell-deserving, sinners (Romans 3:10-23). For someone to openly sing with cheer that they're going to burn in Hell is truly heart-breaking. Hell is forever! Conan, just as Mandy Moore (an atheist), and other God-haters, has sold his soul to Satan. Why would anyone joke of such a horrible place as Hell, where lost sinners burn in fire and brimstone forever? Clearly, Conan doesn't take Hell seriously. I pray for his salvation, but as Jesus said in Luke 18:24, “How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!” What further saith the Scripture? ...
"In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power." —2nd Thessalonians 1:8-9
Is Hell a joke to you too dear reader? God is not willing for any to perish (2nd Peter 3:9). If you've never been born again, please come to Jesus Christ while you still can. Revelation 20:15, “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” God created Hell for the Devil and his angels, not for humanity. Matthew 25:41, “Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:” Matthew 25:46, “And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.” I assure you dear friend, on the authority of the inspired Word of God, that nobody is laughing in Hell. There are no parties in the Lake of Fire.

The Beatles' John Lennon (1940-1980) became infamous on March 4, 1966 when in an interview with the London Evening Standard he stated that The Beatles were “more popular than Jesus.” Although he tried to downplay his words years later in an attempt to do damage control, John couldn't weasel his way out of the crass comment that “Christianity will end.” The 25-year-old young John Lennon clearly felt and expressed resentment for Christianity. We can only wonder where John went in the afterlife. Sadly, I think he is in Hell suffering forever.

God knows that I didn't write this article to be mean or to criticize anyone, but simply because I care about people and I want all of my blog readers to go to Heaven someday. There are only two places to go when someone dies—Heaven or Hell. There is nothing in between. Annihilation (ceasing to exist) is a false teaching. Life is short, Hell is hot, and eternity is a long time!!! It is a matter of whether or not you believe the Holy Bible. Please don't go to Hell!

For the sake of argument, what if Conan O'Brien made fun of the 19 firefighters who tragically lost their lives in the Yarnell Hill Fire in Arizona on June 30, 2013, when they were overtaken by the flames? The firefighters had deployed emergency shelters, but those protective measures were no match for the raging forest inferno, and the intense heat and deadly conditions proved fatal to all 19 men. What if Conan mocked and made fun of them? Well, in the first place he would have been fired that same very day from the network. Second, I seriously doubt if any other network would have rehired him because the stigma sticks. The public would have crucified him. Why? Because the lives of those 19 firefighters matter.

Yet, according to the inspired Holy Scripture most people die in their sins and go to Hell to suffer and burn in fire and brimstone for all eternity (Matthew 7:13-15; Luke 13:23-24). Dear reader, that means billions of human beings are already suffering in Hell forever. If there is even the slightest remote possibility that the Holy Bible may actually be true (and I am betting my eternal destiny that it is), why on earth would anyone (let alone a famous role model like Conan O'Brien) mock and make jokes about such a frightening place as Hell? Shame.

Clearly, heathen people do not take God's Word seriously, which they will someday. They will rue the day that they didn't believe (Luke 16:19-31). The world does not fear God. Romans 3:18, “There is no fear of God before their eyes.” I'll bet Conan O' Brien takes his salary seriously! But that's only money. Hell is nothing to scoff at.
There's a fine line between badass and dumbass.
There's a fine line between bravery and stupidity.
There's a fine line between faith and foolishness.
Some skeptics say that “hell” (Hebrew: Sheol) in the Old Testament just means “grave.” If that were true, then the following Bible verse would make absolutely no sense. Psalms 9:17, “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” How could the wicked and the righteous go to the same place in the afterlife for this verse to make any sense? Clearly the wicked and the righteous go to different places.

It is a sin to make light of Hell and the things of God. Proverbs 14:9, “Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.” Our faithful Creator deserves more respect than that. God is good to all of us. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

Are You Ready To Meet God?

Proverbs 27:1, “Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.”

There was a very sad accident which happened in Colorado Springs in 2009. An 18-year old woman, Whitney Hendrickson, was slowly burned to death in a fiery accident, which involved an out-of-control vehicle that struck hers as she was fueling it.

I have often wished I had been there that horrible morning. Without hesitation, I would have rammed her vehicle with mine to free her. Or I would have jacked up the vehicle with my jack and pushed the vehicle and jack over away from the pump. I would have done something! Damn the torpedoes! Even dousing her with water from a hose until the fire department arrived could have saved her life. There were evidently no men present. A man takes action!

The poor girl was pinned between the gas pump and the burning minivan. As she saw the flames moving toward her, she cried out for help, saying “Help me! Help me! I'm going to die.” Sadly, there was no one to save her. Life is so short. She had no idea when she woke up that morning that it would be her last day on earth. My deepest sympathies goes out to that young woman's family. I am still reminded of Whitney from time to time, 17 years later.

Spencer Eden/KDVR-TV | March 17, 2009
March 17, 2009 - A Colorado Springs convenience store gasoline pump caught fire and exploded, killing a woman.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado — A convenience store gasoline pump caught fire and exploded Tuesday, killing a woman and injuring at least one other person, police said.

Witnesses told The Gazette newspaper the pump caught fire after hit was hit by a pickup that had in turn been struck by an SUV. Police said the incident was under investigation.

The woman was pumping gas when the fire erupted, and she was trapped between the pump and a minivan, witnesses said.

"She was standing there screaming 'Help me! Help me! I'm going to die,"' Greg Alderman told The Gazette.

Police Lt. Dave Whitlock identified the woman who was killed as 18-year-old Whitney Hendrickson of Colorado Springs.

The SUV driver, 29-year-old Kelli Renae McKay of Colorado Springs, was treated at Memorial Hospital for bruises. She was cited for suspicion of careless driving involving a death, a misdemeanor, Whitlock said.

A passenger in the minivan was unharmed as was the driver of the pickup.

Alderman, who works across the street from the 7-Eleven store where the explosion occurred, said he tried to get to the woman but the heat was too intense.

Michael Horvat, who also works across the street, said he ran to the store with a fire extinguisher but an off-duty firefighter yelled at him to back off. Just then the pump exploded.

"She was frozen in there, between the gas pumps and her car," Horvat said. "She was holding her face. Flames were all around her. She never got out."

SOURCE
I wrote this article because this accident is a clear reminder to all of us that life is predictably UNPREDICTABLE. We have a tendency to take so many things for granted in this life, including life itself.

Consider this poor woman who lost her life. Any hope of having a future husband or children or grandchildren, any hope of ever hearing those first words “Mama” or “I wuv you mommy,” any hope of watching her children graduate from school, or of receiving a big hug from one of her own children, is now gone forever. How sad. How tragic!

This is why I get so peeved at our government leaders for needlessly sending our children to die on foreign soil for agendas that have absolutely nothing to do with America's freedom. Alan Greenspan, who headed the Federal Reserve Board for 19 years, stated that the Iraqi War is mostly about stealing their oil. That's not a good enough reason to forfeit our children's lives. Many parents will never be grandparents because their child died in Iraqi for the New World Order. And if that's not bad enough, President Bush Jokes about War In Iraq! It is all so evil. Just remember, Obama, Bush and the Clintons will all spend this coming Christmas with their children. If your pastor supported the War in Iraq, you need to find a much better church.

May we keep in mind the untimely death of this unfortunate young woman, and numerous others we read about every day in the news, so that we may redeem the time, preparing to meet our God and Creator. Life is what happens to us while we're making big plans. Life has its disappointments, heartaches and times of sorrow for everyone—some more than others—but God is still on His throne in Heaven and now is the time to get right with God. Friend, do you know Jesus as your personal Savior? Time on earth is running out for everyone.

The Reality Of Sin, Righteousness, Judgment And Hell

After I read this tragic story, I couldn't help but think of the Scriptures and the BILLIONS of unbelievers that are headed for the Lake of Fire in their sins. Revelation 21:8, “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

And again in 2nd Thessalonians 1:8 we are warned, “In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.” I don't know if this young woman was saved or unsaved, and I make no statement concerning that. I certainly hope with all my heart that she's enjoying Heaven now with the saints.

What caught my attention mostly was the fact that this young women saw death approaching. She saw the fires moving closer and closer. Fear overwhelmed her, as it would anyone. How tragic that multitudes of people in the world today refuse to see the fires closing in around them! They are blind to the reality of sin, judgment and Hell fire! Oh, that men would hear and believe the Word of God, repenting toward God for salvation.

Jesus taught in Matthew 24:37-38 that the people before the flood were eating, drinking, marrying and giving in marriage (going from one failed marriage to another). Jesus said that it would be the same way in the Last Days. We are living in those times today (2nd Timothy 3:1-7). People today are not listening to God. This is why we have a city nicknamed “Sin City” (Las Vegas), and abortion is legal, and Salem in Massachusetts prides themselves as the “City of Witches,” and lewd internet smut is a legal $50 billion per year business, and homosexuals are getting married and adopting children, and America's legal system is extremely corrupt and oppressive, and idolatry is commonplace, and our churches preach another gospel from a false bible perversion. Woe unto America! We are a spiritual sick and diseased nation.

Jesus said that when the flood finally came, THEY KNEW NOT what had happened until it was too late. Not one person heeded Noah's preaching of the imputed righteousness that is found only in Christ. Only Noah and his immediate family boarded the ark. Noah preached for 120 long years, but not one person obeyed the Gospel to believe it; not one person got saved; not one sinner escaped God's wrath when judgment came. And after perishing in the flood they sadly went to burn in Hell forever. Psalm 9:17, “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.”

Tragically, preachers no longer cry aloud against sin, no longer warn men of the coming judgment of an angry God, and no longer stress the awfulness of eternal punishment for all Christ-rejecters in the fires of Hell. Every mainstream so-called “Christian author,” such as Joyce Meyer, Joel Osteen, Rick Warren, Max Lucado, et cetera, spend 99% of the time AVOIDING the unpleasant and offensive topics of sin, judgment, God's wrath, hellfire and eternal punishment. Yet, the great need of our day is to hear these topics preached loud and long so that men may fear God and come to repentance.

All of the popular televangelists today are a bunch of greedy fakes! Beware of the minister who focuses on health, wealth and prosperity. Beware of any professed “Christian” who wants to sell you something; but never warns of the coming judgment in hellfire, never exposes the awfulness of sin, never talks about winning souls to Jesus Christ and never talks about God's wrath upon the wicked. America's great need of the hour is preaching preachers!

The tragic accident in Colorado Springs could have happened to anyone. It was horrific to say the least. Burned alive! Proverb 27:1, “Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.” The important question is, are you ready to meet God? Hebrews 10:31, “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.”
Luke 13:5, “I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent (change your mind to get born again), ye shall all likewise perish.” —Jesus Christ

The Sad Testimony Of Free Climber Alex Honnold

Psalms 14:1-3, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.”

On January 24, 2026 a remarkable man named Alex Honnold (born August 17, 1985), climbed the tallest skyscraper in Taiwan, the Taipei 101, which stands at 1,667 feet (508 meters) tall, making it one of the tallest skyscrapers in the world. He ascended the building in 91 minutes, showcasing his remarkable climbing skills. At the very top, he stood at the pinnacle for about 10 minutes, taking selfies. I love this amazing guy! Alex has nerves of titanium! In free solo climbing that Alex excels at doing, the climber does not use any ropes or protective gear, but relies solely on mental acuity, resolve, physical strength and endurance. Amazing!

According to Wikipedia...

Alex Honnold is an American rock climber best known for his free solo ascents of big walls. Honnold rose to worldwide fame in June 2017 when he became the first person to free solo a full route on El Capitan in Yosemite National Park, a climb described in The New York Times as "one of the great athletic feats of any kind, ever."

As much as I tremendously admire this great man, for doing what no one else has done, my heart was greatly saddened to learn recently that Alex is a devout atheist. Sadly, Alex Honnold is a professed atheist who does not believe in God. He has expressed his corrupt views on spirituality and religion, indicating a lack of belief in a higher power.

“By not believing in an afterlife, it forces you to make the most out of this life to get the most out of the time you have.” —Alex Honnold in a Chris Johnson video titled “A Better Life in Yosemite with Alex Honnold” (October 11, 2012)

I beg to differ. It is because of my belief in an afterlife that I work so hard on my website ministry, knowing that I must give account to my Creator someday. Hebrews 4:13, “Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” (cf. Romans 14:10-12; Ecclesiastes 12:13-14; Matthew 12:36). Christians must appear at the Judgment Seat of Christ (2nd Corinthians 5:9-11). Unbelievers like Alex Honnold will appear at the Great White Throne of Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15). I highly recommend that you settle out of court with God the Father dear reader, by accepting the sacrifice of His only begotten Son as full payment for your sins.

Kindly said, the inspired Holy Bible calls Alex a liar for denying the existence of God...

Romans 1:20-21, “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.”

At some point in his youth, the Holy Bible says that Alex KNEW GOD, but he refused to glorify the LORD as his divine Creator, due to an unthankful heart. God deserves so much better than that from His creation. Isaiah 45:9a, “Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker!”

Alex Honnold intentionally ignores the fact that all of the beautiful nature he has experienced while climbing dozens of mountains didn't just happen by chance. It wasn't cosmic chaos and accidental aftermath that formed the universe, it was God our omnipotent Creator. Here are just a few passages of Scripture which teach that God is the Creator...

Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”

Psalms 8:3-4, “When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him?  and the son of man, that thou visitest him?”

Jeremiah 10:12, “He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.”

Isaiah 45:18, “For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.”

Specifically, Jesus Christ (who is God almighty, a member of the Godhead) created all things...

John 1:1-4, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.” 

No human being can honestly answer these basic questions:

  1. How big is the universe?
  2. Where did the universe begin?
  3. Where did life begin?

There are no logical, plausible or rational answers to these perplexing questions that have stumped mankind since the very beginning of life. Can the universe continue forever? Anyone who says it can is blatantly denying every aspect of science, astronomy and physics. If the universe does has an end, what lies beyond? How could there have been a time when nothing existed? Doesn't everything have a beginning and an end? Hoe can life come from non-life? Only arrogant fools attempt to answer these questions without acknowledging that there is a supreme Creator. The only logical answer to all three perplexing questions is God.

I sincerely hope and pray that Alex Honnold will put his trust in Jesus Christ before it is too late for him. One slip off a skyscraper or a mountain and from Hell Alex will believe in God, I promise you! ...

2nd Timothy 2:12b-13, “...if we deny him, he also will deny us: If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.”

There is only one place in the afterlife where an atheist can go, which is Hell. Revelation 20:15, “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” God\s wrath is presently resting upon Alex's head. John 3:36, “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.” God almighty sacrificed His only begotten Son on a cross 2,000 years ago, and He doesn't take it lightly when a guilty sinner like Alex rejects His Son.

By God's grace, I received Jesus Christ as my personal Savior at age 12 in 1979. I simply by faith put my sole trust in Jesus' death on the cross, burial and bodily resurrection three days later as my only hope for the forgiveness of sins and Heaven. JESUS PAID IT ALL!!!

I find it highly ironic in the photo at the beginning of this blog, showing Alex (a hard core atheist) waving at fans inside the building as he climbs, and one of them is holding up a sign which reads: “GODPSEED” to Alex. Now isn't that peculiar! Why would the Lord help an atheist who denies His existence and spits on the sacrifice of His only begotten Son? I admit that I did pray for Alex as he climbed the Taipei 101 skyscraper, concerned that he might slip and fall to his death, and wake up in the everlasting fires of Hell. Time is running out folks!

Hebrews 9:27-28, “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”

How could such a brilliant man as Alex Honnold deny his Creator? It makes no sense. You'd think if anyone would have faith in God (Mark 11:22), it would be a guy who has spent his life in the mountains and nature. Romans 1:20-21 plainly warns that since nature itself testifies of God's existence, eternal power and Godhead, NO MAN will have any excuse on Judgment Day. In essence, there is no such thing as a true atheist, there are only those who claim it...

Romans 1:20-21, “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.”

Alex Honnold is an ingrate to God! All of the delicious food he enjoys, his health, his comforting wife, his beloved children, his home and friends—all of it came FROM GOD ABOVE. James 1:17, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” Repent of your unbelief before it is too late! God is faithful.

I Love Cold Refreshing Mineral Water

Luke 16:19-26, “There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.”

I Absolutely Love Cold Refreshing Mineral Water!

If you've ever drank distilled water from a grocery store, then you know how empty and lacking of flavor it is. Drinking distilled water ironically produces a dry aftertaste sensation, which I don't enjoy. But mineral water is so delicious and satisfying, because it contains important micronutrients which the body craves and requires to stay healthy.

I almost never drink tap water, simply because it contains many toxins and impurities; such, as fluoride, chlorine and literal rusted metal from the pipes underground. I absolutely love Dasani mineral water, which I buy is large quantities from local gas stations and Walmart. I can buy a large case of 18 bottles for about $5. When I lived on Guam that would have cost $20. I make sure never to run low on mineral water. I drink on average about 6 16.9 ounce bottles each day, kept nice and cold in my refrigerator. THANK YOU God for water, and for a healthy body to enjoy water.

One of the most horrifying thought s which has ever entered into my mind, is the sad realization that billions of human beings are burning in the fires of Hell this moments, unable to drink even one drop of water, suffering in the torments of Hell forever. It saddens me. I know they made their own choices, but they are still people, for which Jesus died on Calvary's cross. Oh how the Devil is a beautiful liar!

Matthew 10:28, “And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” This is a remarkable passage of Scripture, because it confirms that not only will a damned person's SOUL be cast into Hell, but also some form of BODY. In order for the formerly rich man, who died in his sleep and awoke in the fires and torments of Hell (Greek: Hades), to request a drop of water to quench his thirst, then he logically must have had a BODY. Thirst for literal water is something that only a physical body can need. Most people only think of eternal punishment in terms of the SOUL going to Hell, but Jesus plainly warned that both the SOUL and BODY will be cast into the Lake of Fire forever!

“I saw, moreover, that it was not my good frame of heart that made my righteousness better, nor my bad frame that made my righteousness worse; for my righteousness was Jesus Christ himself, the same yesterday and today and forever.” —Pilgrim's Progress author, John Bunyan (1628-1688)

Dear friend, I promise you that one of the worst things about Hell will be the lack of water! I would get saved, if for no other reason, than just to know that I'll be able to drink of the water of life in Heaven. Revelation 22:1, “And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.” Boy that sounds refreshing doesn't it? Cool, clear, refreshing water! In fact, I'm taking a break right after typing this sentence to go drink some COOL FRESHING WATER. Here I go...

Okay, I'm back. Dear friend, we take SO MUCH for granted in this life.

I drink nothing now except Dasani mineral water. I buy cases at Walmart. I thank God for water! Every time that I enjoy drinking cold refreshing water, I am reminded of the suffering once rich man in Hell in Luke 16:19-21, who now is so poor that He cannot even have a single drop of water to quench his dying thirst. Dear friend, that unfortunate man is still suffering in the torments of Hell this very minute! Think about that. It has already been thousands of years, but his suffering continues, and will continue for ever and ever!

Listen dear reader, God is not playing games with you! I often refer to my blog readers as “dear” because you are dear to me. I care about people. I truly do care, which is why I work day and night on my website ministry. It is now 10:53 pm. God knows I am trying to do my best, by His strength. I am far from perfect. The Lord has been convicting me for the past week about something that happened at Walmart recently.

A black man from the street came into Walmart begging people for me. He looked desperate and asked me for some money but I immediately said, “No.” There are people begging for money everywhere in Pensacola, by the hundreds, black and white alike. My neck was hurting bad that day from stenosis and radiculitis (from an old neck injury). As I left Walmart to go to my car, he waited for me in the parking lot and approached me again. I got scared, backed around my cart, and exclaimed: “What the f#ck!” He just looked at me and left. What creeped me out is that he approached me twice. I felt completely justified by my reaction.

But I then later realized that he had seen my hat which says “Jesus” and “John 3:16.” I was wearing a sweatshirt that day which read on the chest: “Stedfast in the faith.” He likely figured that if anyone was going to help him out, it would be a person of Christian faith. I felt so bad. Why didn't I witness to that man? What an opportunity I missed that day. I overreacted in fear and anger, tired of people begging for money all the time everywhere I go. But the Lord has been convicting me, that: “There but for the grace of God go I.” I know I can do better. Hell is real. I don't have to give them a lot of money, but I can witness to them and hand them $5 at least. That is much better than how I poorly responded as a Christian.

Many of these people are addicted to drugs, I know. I really need to find a better place to live, I know. But until that times comes, I choose to love the unloving and share the Gospel with them. I want to love everyone as Jesus would have loved them if He were here. You know, the Bible does in fact call us “AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST” to this lost and sinful world. Did you know that dear reader? 2nd Corinthians 5:20, “Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.” Literally, Jesus has appointed us to represent Him in His stead while He is away in Heaven. What a great responsibility and privilege! Matthew 5:14, “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.”

In Romans 8:32 we read, “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?” I love that Bible verse! Our dear heavenly Father promises to FREELY GIVE US ALL THINGS in eternity. In our rotten American society, nothing is free today. NOTHING! Just to drive to Pensacola Beach costs me a $1 toll each time, plus taxes and fees. Just to take my own money out of the bank at any ATM costs me between $2.50 to $5.00. Many news websites (e.g., New York Times, Washington Times, et cetera) won't allow you to view their website unless you pay money to subscribe. Forget that! I'll just go read the news elsewhere. Their writers aren't that good!

Many local churches are charging 5$ for Wednesday night dinner at Bible study, which costs them about 50 cents worth of food. Where is that money going? Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College shamefully charges $10 to learn how to be a better witness for Christ. Everybody has their hands out for money these days. Thankfully, Romans 8:32 promises that God will “FREELY GIVE US ALL THINGS” in Heaven, to those who love Him (i.e., every redeemed child of God). I don't know how our rewards figure into that. I mean, Jesus told us to lay up for ourselves treasures in Heaven (Matthew 6:19-20). So if God freely give all things to every believer, then why would we labor to earn rewards in Heaven. My thinking is that God will give all things necessary to be content in Heaven to every believer, but there will be special rewards for those who labored diligently for the cause of Jesus Christ and the Gospel. What a day that will be! There won't be any property taxes in Heaven. Amen. There won't be any federal, state nor local taxes in Heaven. Hallelujah!

My friend, God loves and cares about you so much, but there are laws and rules which cannot be violated. A lot of people fail to understand this fact. For example: God loves you, but if you climb up and jump off a tall building, you are going to have a really bad day! You are either going to die, or wish you had. The law of gravity cannot be broken. We live in a world of all sorts of laws! There is the law of physics, and the laws of thermodynamics, and the law of God. John 10:35-36, “If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken; Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?”

God doesn't allow unbelievers to go to Hell forever because He hates them or doesn't love them, quite the contrary, God does love them very much. God sent His only begotten Son into the world to die for “THE WORLD” (John 3:16). Christ gave Himself as a ransom “FOR ALL” (1st Timothy 2:6). 1st John 2:2, “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.” Jesus Christ died on the cross for all mankind. Anybody who says differently is contradicting the plain teaching of the Scriptures.

The reason why God allows unbelievers (i.e., the wicked) to perish into the fires of Hell forever, is simply because THE SCRIPTURE CANNOT BE BROKEN. There must be justice! Sin is a crime against God, and all sin must be paid for. God would be unjust and unfair if He let some people slide for their offenses, but punished others. That is what wicked men do, succumbing to favoritism, nepotism (favoritism toward family and close friends) and other injustices. Justice is a law of the universe. The statue of Lady Liberty is blindfolded, because justice is supposed to be blind (unbiased). Sadly, justice in human courts is often partial and corrupt, influenced by brides and political power, amounting to “JUST US” instead of true justice. But God sees and will reckon ALL injustices in eternity, guaranteed (Hebrews 4:13). You have God's promise of it (Ecclesiastes 5:8; 12:13-14; Romans 12:19-21; 1st Thessalonians 4:6; Romans 14:10-12).

If you are a born-again believer, REJOICE that your name is written in Heaven (Luke 10:20). We have so much to be thankful for. Just something as simple as cold refreshing water nearly everyone takes for granted. Did you know that most people around the world do not have a pure and clean source of drinking water? In Africa they people who drink from the rivers are drinking water with animal and human excrement in it. There is a limited amount of fresh water in the world. I once visited Long Beach, California for a wedding around 1992. I visited the ocean, which I had never seen before. I met a man who was fishing, telling him that I was from Chicago. I'll never forget that he said he wished he could fish in fresh water. I realized something that day—for me, seeing the ocean for the first time, and testing its saltiness, was amazing to me; but for him that was just another normal day, and for him it would have been an amazing thing to visit back where I came from. So we all have incomplete lives on earth.

I've been drinking cold refreshing mineral water all during writing this blog article. I'm on my third bottle! Good stuff!!! The man who went to Hell in Luke 16:19-31 was rich while on earth, yet because he chose to reject the Word of God, dying in his sins without Christ, he became poor in Hell, unable to even get a drop of water. 2nd Corinthians 8:9, “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” Dear friend, Jesus was also once rich in Heaven, but He chose to become poor, being beaten and crucified on a cross on earth to pay for our crimes against God. We are all guilty sinners for breaking God's law (Romans 3:19-20). God gave us His law to show us how sinful we are compared to Him, and why we need the Messiah (Galatians 3:24-26). The LAW shows us our need for salvation, and CHRIST provides that need through His sacrifice on Calvary's cross.

I have been made RICH because Jesus became POOR for me. You can have that too friend, if you haven't already received God's free gift of eternal life. Simply come to God as a guilty sinner, and receive Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins. Jesus DIED, was BURIED and three days later He bodily RESURRECTED from the dead for the justification of your faith (i.e., so your faith wouldn't be in vain). These three facts comprise THE GOSPEL (1st Corinthians 15:1-4), by which we are saved if we BELIEVE those facts (Romans 1:16). The choice is yours alone to make dear reader. I don't know about you friend, but I want to be drinking icy cold refreshing water in Heaven. Revelation 22:1, “And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.”

I'll close with this true sad story. I lived on the island of Guam for 17 years. Each year a couple dozen people, locals and tourists alike, drown at sea. I remember reading a sad story one day in the news, about a married couple from Kansas City, Missouri if I recall right. They were married for about 25 years I think the story said. They decided to go snorkeling on the east side of Guam, where the waters can get pretty rough at times. The ocean depth drops off quickly as you leave Guam, descending thousands of feet almost immediately. This causes severe sudden currents at times in the water, pulling the victim into the vast ocean.

Well, as fate would have it that day, as the couple were holding hands and swimming she was pulled under and away by a dangerous undercurrent, but her husband broken free. He survived, but rescuers later recovered her lifeless body from the sea. They came together to Guam, but he flew back to Kansas a widower. For that reason I stayed out of the ocean on Guam. I swam in it a few times in the early years, even went scuba-diving 35 feet down at the Piti Bombhole (literally holes in the ocean floor from World War II bombs), and waded in the shallow water here and there in later years, but I didn't go out by the dangerous reef anymore (after I was knocked back by a wave and cut my hand open on the jagged sharp reef stone). The ocean's tremendous water pressure literally carves the reef into jagged razor sharp rocks.

I don't know if that woman who drowned was saved or not. The important question right now friend is, are YOU saved. If you don't know 100%, beyond any shadow of a doubt that you are going to Heaven when you die, you sure can know! If you have any Bible questions, please email me at the address at the top right of this blog page. I love helping people for Christ! Below you will find a wonderful Gospel tract by Pastor Harry Ironside, which I encourage you to read if you want to know more about getting saved. God bless and kindest regards.

God Is A Scary Person To Mess With

Job 9:1-3, “Then Job answered and said, I know it is so of a truth: but how should man be just with God? If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand.”

Psalms 50:22, “Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.”

Isaiah 45:9, “Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker!  Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth.  Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou?  or thy work, He hath no hands?”

Isaiah 64:8, “But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.”

2nd Timothy 2:13, “If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.”

These are but a few of umpteen Scripture passages I could show you, warning us that we cannot win out in the end by having a rebellious attitude toward God. Job said that even if a man were to contend with God in a thousand debates, he could not win even one time. God makes no mistakes! Nothing ever occurs to God. Everything that God does is right.

Our Creator is a good God. A person can merely observe nature and the universe and see the goodness of God. The fraudulent theory of evolution could not have accomplished all the goodness in our world. It is shameful that NASA, who are supposed to be so smart, are some of the dumbest people in history. NASA think the moon formed from two big space rocks colliding. What saith the Scripture? Psalms 8:3, “When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;” God made the moon, not some asteroids crashing into each other as NASA foolishly suggests. NASA are atheists!

Romans 8:32 teaches, “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?” Yet, in Luke 16:19-31 the formerly rich man in Hell could not even receive a single drop of water to quench his burning tongue in the flames. Abraham told him there was no way possible. Once a person dies in their sins and goes to Hell, all hope is gone forever!!! Please don't let that happen to you dead reader. If you are reading my blog you are still alive, which means it is not too late. But if you delay getting born-again, playing a deadly game of Russian Roulette with your eternal destiny, then you may suddenly end up in the Lake which burneth with fire and brimstone, which is the second death (Revelation 21:8). Literally, you will be burning in scorching volcanic lava.

Many people laugh and mock the Biblical warning of a literal place called Hell. Even some professed Christians deny that Hell burns with fire. But are you willing to take that monumental risk? Are you willing to bet on that arbitrary assumption and take that foolish chance? Not me, no way, I got saved when I was 13 years old. Pastor Curtis Hutson got saved at age 11. Pastor Steven Anderson got saved at age 6. In fact, 85% of Christians got saved before age 18. Once a person reaches age 70, their odds of getting saved has dropped down to a woeful 4%. In other words, now is the accepted time for salvation. Please don't delay another day.

God will either give you ALL THINGS as His redeemed and adopted child; or else God won't even give you a drop of water as you burn in Hell forever. That is scary! Dear reader, you don't need to be afraid of God if you obey Him. But if you are incorrigible (i.e., a person who refuses to be corrected), then you will find yourself burning in Hell some day. If you think this earth is a form of Hell, you are woefully mistaken, unless you have ever been burned alive in a literal fire! Hell is no joke. Your friends won't be partying in Hell. No one is laughing in Hell!!!

I sincerely hope that you have already taken this matter of Hell very seriously, because it is 100% Biblical. Any child can read in Revelation 20:11-15 about “the Lake of Fire.” Revelation 20:15, “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” If you are one of those people who thinks that God didn't mean what He said, all I can say is: “Good luck with that!” Unless the Holy Bible says otherwise, I take it literally at face value (and so should you friend). God said what He meant, and He meant what He said.

God is faithful. 2nd Timothy 2:13, “If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.” If a person ends up in Hell, they won't be able to blame God. Salvation is a gift from God. It is totally free. You don't have to do anything to have that gift except take it by faith alone in the GOOD NEWS that Jesus is the Christ. who died on the cross to pay for our sins, was buried and three days later He bodily resurrected from the dead. That is THE GOSPEL (1st Corinthians 15:1-4). BELIEVE IT oh sinner and you are saved!!!
Psalms 9:17, “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.”

Hell Is Full Of Good People

Matthew 7:21-23, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”

Matthew 19:16-23, “ And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions. Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.”

Acts 10:1-2, “There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band, A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.”

Hell is full of good people! I have given you three Bible examples of good people who were not saved. That is, they had never been born-again!

Matthew 7:21-23 - 'Ye That Work Iniquity'

In Matthew 7:21-23 we read about a devout group of people who preached (prophesied in Jesus' name). They did many wonderful works in Jesus' name. These were decent and good people. They weren't criminals! They went about doing good deeds everywhere they went, and they did them all in Jesus' name, because they served Christ. But dear reader, you cannot get to Heaven by serving Christ! Satan's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born-again. Religion is oftentimes a deadly mask that blinds it's followers to THE TRUTH of the Gospel.

Matthew 19:16-23 - 'What Good Thing Shall I Do?'

And then in Matthew 19:16-23 we read about a rich young man, a ruler among the Jews, who greatly admired Jesus and came to ask Him something. The young man asked Jesus what he needed to do to have eternal life. That is a great question! In fact, it is the most important question that anyone could ever ask. The dear Savior discerned that the young man was trusting in his own self-righteousness, because he had greeted Jesus as: “Good Master.”

The young man asked Jesus in Matthew 19:16a, “Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?” Sadly, this is how 95% of people think! They foolishly think that to get to Heaven they must live a good life. Jesus discerned that the young man was self-righteous, so He responded by using the Old Testament law the way it was intended to be used, as a measuring stick, to show that young man that he had fallen short of God's perfect standard. If any human being could live a 100% perfect and sinless life, they would never die! Romans 6:23b teaches that “the wages of sin is death.”

That is why Roman Catholics had to invent the false doctrine of The Assumption of Mary (which became official Catholic dogma in 1950), which falsely teaches that God assumed Mary (i.e., took Jesus' mother up into Heaven), because according to Catholics Mary never sinned. Catholics teach a heresy called The Immaculate Conception of Mary (i.e., she was virgin born too, Just like Jesus). Oh boy, what blasphemy against the Holy Bible. One heresy begets another heresy!!! Since Catholics teach that Mary was virgin born, they had to fabricate another false doctrine that says Mary never sinned, just like Jesus. And since she allegedly never sinned, she couldn't die either, because only sin brings death. I hope you can clearly see how Satanic the Roman and Russian Orthodox Catholic churches are! Roman Catholicism is headquartered in Vatican City, Rome. The Russian Orthodox Catholic church is headquartered in Moscow, Russia. There's not a dimes difference between these two cults!

Jesus was trying to show the rich young ruler that no amount of good works could erase his sins. The young man was very wealthy and covetous, making him a sinner, incapable of meriting eternal life. Jesus is the ONLY human being who has ever lived without sinning, and that is only because He had God almighty as His biological Father (John 3:16). God almighty came down to earth as a biological man. Deity became flesh, incarnate (John 1:1-3, 14; John 10:33; 1st Timothy 3:16). Colossians 2:8-9, “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.”

In the earthly flesh of the man Jesus, the Godhead dwelt in all their fullness. The Godhead is often referred to in Bible theology classes as the “Trinity.” Although I am not against using the word Trinity, I like the Word Godhead much better, since it is found in the Holy Bible. It is no coincidence that the word “Godhead” has been completely removed in nearly all of the Devil's modern Bible revisions, because the Devil doesn't want people to recognize Jesus as almighty God. In the inspired King James Bible you will find the word “Godhead” mentioned three times (Acts 17:29, Romans 1:20 and Colossians 2:9). But in all three passages, the modern Bible perversions totally obliterate the Godhead.

Take a look at a comparison between Colossians 2:9 in the trustworthy King James Bible, versus the corrupt English Standard Version (ESV), which is the official Bible version used by Bob Jones University (BJU) now for many years...
KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) - Colossians 2:9, “For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.”
ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION (ESV) - Colossians 2:9, “For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily,”
There is a BIG DIFFERENCE between the words “deity” and “Godhead.” Deity refers to God, but Godhead refers to the triune aspect of God. Words convey meaning and are extremely important. Take a look at a comparison of Romans 1:20 between the inspired King James Bible, versus the corrupt English Standard Version (ESV)...
KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) - Romans 1:20, “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:”

ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION (ESV) - Romans 1:20, “For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.”
The words “divine nature” are NOT the same as “Godhead.” Things that are different are not the same! Pastor Curtis Hutson (1934-1995) preaches one of my favorite sermons of the same title, called: “Things That Are Different Are Not The Same.” I cannot warn you enough dear reader about the danger of using the Devil's modern Bible revisions. They are all corrupt, translated from the corrupt 1881 Greek text of Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort. Even the translations which claim to be based upon the Textus Receptus, from which the King James Bible was translated in 1611, are still corrupted by the influence of Westcott and Hort. For example: The ungodly translators of the English Standard Version (ESV) falsely claim that their work is accurately based upon the Textus Receptus, but if you compare it to all the rest of the Westcott and Hort versions, it is essentially the same. If you've seen one Westcott and Hort Bible, you've seen them all!!! That is because they all share the same corruptions! Which Bible Would Jesus Use? (take a look at Matthew 8:2, 1st Timothy 3:16 and Psalms 12:7).

Acts 10:1-2 - Cornelius, A Good Man But Lost

Cornelius had faith in God. He was an Italian centurion (military commander) over 100 solders. He fasted and prayed, giving alms (provisions) to the poor. Cornelius was a GOOD MAN who feared God. Yet he was not a born-again believer. God arranged for the Apostle Peter and Cornelius to meet. Thankfully, we read in Acts 10:42-43 that Cornelius got saved, and the friends who were with him. I like something that Pastor Curtis Hutson said:
“Just yesterday I heard a man say on the radio, or television, that a certain area was 'Gospel hardened.' And I thought to myself: 'You just don't understand. The area is not Gospel hardened, it is Gospel ignorant.'” —Dr. Curtis Hutson, sermon title: “Things That Are Different Are Not The Same”
Dear reader, Hell is full of unsaved GOOD PEOPLE, who died in their sins without Jesus Christ. if you want to go to Heaven, you need GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is by faith alone in Jesus Christ. Romans 10:3-4, “For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.” Philippians 3:9, “And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:” I really love those two Bible verses!!!

Ozzy Osbourne Is Dead At Age 76

John 3:1-3, “There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

John Michael "Ozzy" Osbourne (December 3, 1948 – July 22, 2025) died today. sadly. I do not know if he went to Heaven or Hell. Only Ozzy and God know the truth. My gut tells me that Ozzy went to Hell forever in his sins without Jesus as His Savior. I haven't been able to find any testimony where Ozzy professed faith directly in Jesus Christ. Even the Devil appears as an angel of light to deceive his victims (2nd Corinthians 11:13-15).

Ozzy Osbourne was a very popular English singer, songwriter and media personality. He rose to prominence during the 1970s as the lead vocalist of the heavy metal band Black Sabbath, during which period he adopted the nickname "Prince of Darkness." Ozzy was infamous for biting the head off of a live bat in a concert, and for urinating upon the Alamo in Texas for which he was banned by the state from performing future concerts.

As a singer, Ozzy was gifted. Randy Rhoads (1956-1982) catapulted Ozzy career in the early 1980s with his amazing guitar techniques and unique heavy metal guitar tone. Sadly, Randy was murdered by a drug-crazed pilot who commit suicide in 1982, also murdering Ozzy's hair-dresser. I thought it was interesting years ago when I read that Ozzy had visited Ken Ham's Ark Encounter in Kentucky.

I hesitate to say that Ozzy went to Hell when he died, because the man did profess faith in Christ. There is a chance that he went to Heaven. We simply do not know. My concern is that Ozzy identified with the apostate Church of England, who are wrong on repentance and the Gospel. Like so many professions of Christianity today, Ozzy's profession appears to have been merely superficial (Matthew 15:8-9). Was Ozzy born again? I simply do not know. It breaks my heart to think that Ozzy might be burning in the fires of Hell now and forever!

Ozzy rejected organized religion, which is actually a good sign. I reject organized religion too! I hate religion!!! Religion is the worst thing that ever happened to this miserable world. No religion can get you into Heaven. Salvation is not found in any religion; but rather, it is found through faith in the person and redemptive work of the Lord Jesus Christ. John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” It is that simple to be saved. If Ozzy was solely relying upon Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for his sins, believing that Jesus was buried but then raised up from the dead physically the third day, then Ozzy went to Heaven today. I sure hope so!

No amount of sin or evil done can hinder the vilest sinner from entering through Heaven's pearly gates, if that soul is trusting in the GOOD NEWS of Jesus Christ alone. 1st Thessalonians 4:14, “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.”

Someone kindly asked me today on Facebook how someone as wicked as Ozzy Osbourne could have went to Heaven. Here is my unedited reply:
There is no denying that Ozzy lived like the Devil for most of his life. The singer struggled with substance abuse and credited his wife Sharon with saving his life. Ozzy has openly said that he has never worshipped Satan. He claims it was all marketing ploys to make money, and I believe him. Granted, Satan used Ozzy's influence to ruin millions of young people's lives, including dozens of families who sued Ozzy over their teens committing suicide while listening to Ozzy's song, "Suicide Solution."

But we must remember that some of the worst people in the Bible were God's children. If it weren't for the New Testament, we'd never know that sinful Lot was saved. I believe Esau was saved, and Ishmael. Noah got drunk. Samson was a lifelong fornicator. David murdered Uriah to cover up the unintended pregnancy with his wife, Bathsheba. Solomon built altars for his heathen wives to sacrifice children to Baal. Isaiah was a man of unclean lips. Jeremiah quit the ministry. Abraham lied and commit adultery. Sarah laughed in God's face and horribly mistreated Hagar. Moses had a viscous hot temper, even murdering a man; Moses smote the rock twice which God had commanded him to strike once, ruining that type of Christ who was once crucified for our sins. The Bible is filled with sinful saints who lived reckless lives of sin and evil, dishonoring the Lord. So, Ozzy definitely could have been saved.

I only have doubts that Ozzy went to Heaven because I couldn't find any direct testimony from Ozzy himself of his faith in Jesus. Many people claim to be a "Christian," but have no clue what it really means to be one. Even the demonic cults of Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses and Roman Catholics all claim to be Christians, but we know that is IMPOSSIBLE because they all add works to faith; and in the case of Mormons and JW's they also have another Jesus, and another spirit.
Another Christian woman commented on Facebook that she did understand how someone as evil as Ozzy could have been saved. Here is my unedited reply to her as well:
We read in Matthew 7:21-23 about a group of unsaved people. They were standing in judgment before Christ Himself, but Jesus denied knowing them as His sheep. The Lord said they had failed to do the will of the Father, which is to BELIEVE on the Son without works (John 6:40).

In Matthew 7:22 they boasted of their "many wonderful works." So, here we plainly see that it is impossible to determine if someone is saved or not by examining their life. To do so is to commit the error of Lordship Salvation. These people preached in Jesus' name, did good works in Jesus' name, even cast out devils in Jesus' name, but they still died in their sins and went to Hell forever. By all outward appearances they seemed to be Christians, but in fact they never were saved at all.

To know them “by their fruits” then, in Matthew 7:20, can only refer to their doctrine. The inspired Scripture confirms this truth in 𝟭𝘀𝘁 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝟰:𝟭, “𝗕𝗲𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱, 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗼𝗱: 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗵𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱.”

Jesus plainly told us what the will of the Father is to get to Heaven in 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝟲:𝟰𝟬 “𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗺𝗲, 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗻, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗻 𝗵𝗶𝗺, 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲: 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝘂𝗽 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗮𝘆.”
Dear reader, it is impossible to determine if someone is saved or lost by examining their life. The only way to know for sure is by a direct testimony from their mouth (or writings) concerning what their relationship is to Jesus Christ. Only those who are solely trusting in Jesus, the Christ, because of His work of redemption through Calvary's cross are saved. Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith. Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty!

In 2023, celebrity evangelist Dylan Novak gave Ozzy a modern Bible with Ozzy's name engraved on the front cover. According to Ozzy's son, Jack Osbourne, Ozzy absolutely loved the gift and cherished it. There has been much ado made in recent news that Ozzy declared his faith in God in the months before his death. Unfortunately, believing in God is not enough to get to heaven. James 2:19, “Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.”

Jesus Himself warned in no uncertain terms in John 3:3b, “Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” If Ozzy wasn't born again, then he is now and forever burning in the fires, torments and darkness of Hell beneath. Psalms 9:17, “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Ozzy's evil lifestyle couldn't have kept him out of Heaven, but his lack of faith in the only begotten Son of God who died on a cross to pay for his sins certainly could have. Since Ozzy did at least profess to be a Christian, I am reluctant to adamantly say that he went to Hell. We simply do not know. But if you pressed me for my honest opinion, I'd have to say that I doubt if Ozzy went to Heaven.

Ozzy could be in Heaven, but only he and God (and the unseen spirit world) know for certain. As contemptible as Ozzy was in the sight of Heaven, he is still beloved by the wicked world (John 15:19).
