The Death of and Vanity of Eddie Van Halen - A Biblical Perspective

[The Ignorant Fisherman]

“Judge not bro...” “who are you to judge me..” what are you holier than thou??

You’re a judgemental hypocrite..

Just goof’n on you... but you can be pretty judgmental yourself..

[Drumbo]

Ignorant ... what an appropriate handle:

" Walk me down to the wishing well
Help me find that miracle
Splash that holy water on me
Drown my faith in trinity.
Little by little, gonna get it, I swear
One more piece of the puzzle, I'm there
Gotta get lucky, gotta get that done
Little bit of luck never hurt no one
Come on take me down, down, down...
I'm in a cold sweat
Lord don't let me drown, drown, drown
In mother earth's soul, yet.

Under darkend skies
We'll see the light.
Broken now I can't help but feel
Someone cracked the seventh seal.
Nothing sacred, nothing left un-turned,
When nothing's simple
Then nothing's learned.

So take me down to the virgin spring
Wash away my suffering,
Splash that holy water on me
Wash my eyes so I can see.
Come on take me down, down, down...
I'm in a cold sweat
Don't let me drown, drown, drown -
In mother earth's soul, not yet!
Lord I think I found, found, found...
My mother lode! Take me down, down, down, down...
Take me!"

Songwriters: Alex Van Halen / Edward Van Halen / Sammy Hagar / Michael Anthony

RIP Edward. Godspeed, good rest, in peace be blessed.
God blessed Ed with many gifts, but "Haters gonna hate."

WTF? 🤔

[Guenevere]

You are right.....You can be saved like the thief on the cross!

....but do you want to wager when that last second is?

[caww]

Well this gal that was speaking was just 27....

[ro_dreaming]

Valerie is my first TV crush, and I’ve been in like/lust/love with her since the 70’s.

[LibertyWoman]

It's wrong to use Eddie Van Halen's death to preach about hell. Particularly when no one has any idea of what his spiritual condition was when he stepped off into eternity.

Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

[Albion Wilde]

Wow. It doesn’t take long to wreck a voice.

[The Ignorant Fisherman]

D, my friend...where is any God in that? Let me ask you a quedtion.... what would your obituary read in light of this post which is obvious you did not read? Which one are you? John 3:16-17

Don’t be angry but objectively consider your days.

[The Ignorant Fisherman]

Never said that AA... read the post and objectively consider your ways in light of the Bible... that is the point for all..

[The Ignorant Fisherman]

Just pointing out Jesus’ words which offend you. John 3:19-21... which one are you?

[caww]

....”Wow. It doesn’t take long to wreck a voice”...

No it doesn't when you're smoking weed, alcohol sloshing and staying out late nights day in and out...as she said it destroys your voice.....but the music Industry doesn't explain to you about these dangers and the affects on the vocal cords. BTW.....the gal speaking is Miley Cyrus. Who apparently has stopped all she was doing that was wrecking her voice. But some damage has already happened she cannot recover from. Occasionally I check to see how her life is because she's been heading the same direction as the other 27 Yr. olds who end up dead at 27.

[Ahithophel]

You’re sure to get many converts with this...jackass.

Whiff of sarcasm detected? As Woody Allen once observed, eternity is a long time, especially towards the end. Let that sink in perhaps.

Anyway, favorite psychic in contact with Eddie last night, says he's jumping with excitement to record and release crazy long version of Runnin' With The Devil. No word yet on when he'll be finished, but ain't that cool news?

[Ahithophel]

Just pointing out Jesus’ words which offend you. John 3:19-21... which one are you?

Good question, and answer possibly discerned from I Cor. 2:14 ("But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."). BTW: good fishing tip: "Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch." (Luke 5)

[Albion Wilde]

Wow, she was a low alto to begin with. And she (with the help of her loony parents) wrecked a large swath of her life, not just her voice.

[The Ignorant Fisherman]

Just pointing out Jesus’ words which offend you. John 3:19-21... which one are you?

Jesus' words have never offended me. It is people like you who equate their twisted interpretation with the words of Christ that offend me and you do. You are the ultimate child of the pharisees. You use words meant for life and mercy to proclaim death and judgement on a man who cannot defend himself.

This doth the Lord require of thee oh man, that you do justice, love mercy and walk humbly with thy God.

The scripture has much to say about your kind.

You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence.

These are the men who are hidden reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you without fear, caring for themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, doubly dead, uprooted;

And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their actions

"You’re sure to get many converts with this...jackass." Runnin' With The DevilM by Their manager, Noel Monk might change your mind. Also, the book by Sammy Hagar was mind opening.

Eddie was a great guitar player, but he suffered us "lessers" with a very jaundiced eyed. He did not care for those of us who he thought not as good as him, which is, like everyone but him.

[EEGator]

We have no idea what EVH thought towards the end of his life.

My main point was how messed up it is to piss on someone’s grave(not even buried yet) by evoking Jesus and God.
There is nothing more powerful, amongst people, to turn people away from Christianity than a pompous, a-hole like the original poster.

[jeffc]

Agree. So many "Christians" are not really very Christian. That said, Eddie was/is not God, as so many of the posters to the thread imply. I hope he found God before his passing.

IDK anything about his second wife, whether she is Christian or not. I hope so. Eddie had plenty of time to come to God. I hope he did so....
