I read the post. It was inappropriate. You are welcome to your opinion. You now have mine.

If he's entitled to his own opinion then why are you and who are you to judge that his opinion is *inappropriate*?

How is what you are doing any different from what you are condemning him for?

“Just assume everyone is a devil worshipper? Yeah, that makes more sense.. SMH”

Who said everyone? Why do you change things? Are you purposely dishonest?

Why do you disagree about this example? Explain why this shouldn’t be a default position.

Let’s see your article stating he is an unbeliever. You’re the one holding him up as the non-believer. Prove it.

Prove he was.

Why is it OK to assume someone is a believer and yet not OK to assume someone is an unbeliever?

Jesus said.....

Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.

So statistically speaking, you'd be more likely to be correct that a person isn't a believer, than one is.

Additionally, we are to confess that we are.

If someone does not profess to be Christian, there is no valid reason to assume they are. Other than you just want to sound like a nice person by not assuming that they weren't.

But that doesn't change anything about where they really are. It's a kind of Christian virtue signalling.

Who is dancing on anyone’s grave?

I don’t see anyone rejoicing in the death and possible/likely damnation of anyone.

Where did he do that? Could you point to the post and provide a link?

......”Eddie had been fighting throat cancer for ten years”....

A female musician was speaking about how the music industry does not teach one about how the throat reacts to constant use and the ‘balance’ one needs to protect their voice. They're all about the next show or tour to generate as much money as fast as possible.....She said she had used drugs, smoke, alcohol and late nights with hang overs and sexual encounters of all sorts........NOW her voice has deepend and gottn raspy....as she said the voice gets 'dirty' and it's ones lifestyle that will change the voice.

My friend, before we ever wrote this we could not find one quote ever from EVH about a saving relationship to Christ.

True to your point but the message is for all!

We make judgments on Biden, Hillary etc.. based on facts, positions and their words.

No different here.... I pray he did business before his last breath, but search the media outlets there is no trace of it. Totally tragic and an example of a vain life for all (Eccl. 12:13-14)!

His boast has always been SDR.

The man had a work ethic, the success to show for it, and a smile on his face. A positive attitude coupled with humility. He’s a role model, IMO.

Hearse-chasing evangelism like this is tactless, tasteless dreck. How do YOU know what his spiritual life was like?! Rock Jesus, Ed.

Again, you’re a hyprocrite... you pass judgments all day long on Hillary, Biden, Harris, CNN etc.. but have no discernment on this matter; and again this is a religion forum where we talk about such things and doctrine, etc etc..

I have no pleasure in this and you better believe God reached out to him forced years; but Google what he’s totally known for and see if there is any God in it??? A very simple matter.

The bottom line of this post is His life is a warning to all that death is before us all and all will give an account to our ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS CREATOR (Eccl. 12:13-14, Rom.3:23, Heb. 9:27, Rev. 20:10-15).

What about you...? what would the world write or Jesus say according to His RIGHTEOUS Word.

Just to let you know....the band Kansas was headed up by John and Dino Elefante. Both of them, after Kansas, became Christians. John founded Pakaderm Records and produced a bunch of Christian artists.

My man... he told us by his life and own words what he believed! Do the research before you post something. Talk about judging wrongly... but you’re not alone. Why is this so offensive to you??

A good time for all to see what its all about. Read the whole post and you will see the challenge is for all to self evaluate before Almighty God in RIGHTEOUSNESS (Eccl. 12:13-14, John 3:16-17, Heb. 9:27).

Was a big fan of EVH way back in the day and pretty sure I know 10 times more about him then you do.

Thanks!

Again, you make up straw men.

Or you can’t read. Or are too emotional to discuss it without snowflake type outbursts.

More strawman crap.

I never said anyone is going to hell or not.

I don’t think you can hold a coherent thought process.

So he’s in hell because you didn’t see anything in the media about his beliefs? Media outlets??
God doesn’t work that way. Done reading your BS posts.

Yes. And you CAN have assurance if eternal salvation it is not pride or. another as it depends solely on Christ not on us. All we have to do is accept the free gift.

Move on then.... your totally twisting everything. You want to know the truth, then objectively begin to read, believe and receive the words of Jesus.

No truer example than to hear Joni Mitchell within the last 20 years singing some of her songs from the 70s. Sad.

In the 2003 movie Love Actually, when the wife’n’mom leaves the room to react privately to having discovered her husband’s infidelity on Christmas Eve with the whole family, the soundtrack played a cigarette-damaged version of Joni’s Both Sides Now. Joni’s wrecked, husky contralto was almost as tear-jerking to me as the betrayed woman’s quickly wiped tears, knowing that she and her cheating husband would be taking their excited kids to perform in their Christmas pageant at church in a few minutes, and she must put on a brave face for their sake.
