1931 – 2012
Lord Jesus, rest Thy servant Charles with the saints.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
Memory eternal.
He is a real loss to us all.
I’m sorry to hear that. May his soul be with the Lord, and prayers for those loved ones left behind.
RIP
A great man.
This comes as very sad news to all of us who were touched by Mr. Colson’s work. I have been a supporter of his Prison Fellowship ministry for years now. May God Bless him and his family.
The MSM get another chance to remind people of the Watergate incident and blame it on all Republicans.
Charles W. Colson, Watergate Felon Reborn as Evangelical Leader, Dies at 80.
Which makes me wonder, how often is John Dean listed as "John Dean, Watergate Felon, [does this/does that]"?
Sad news.
Colson was such a visible presence for the concept of redemption. May his soul find eternal peace.
A great man, and invaluable in the cause of getting Protestants and Catholics working together for the common good. He will be greatly missed. God bless.
RIP.
RIP. Happy reunion with The Church.
RIP.
Prayers for God's comfort and peace for his family and loved ones.
Lord Jesus, rest Thy servant Charles with the saints.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
One of the greatest witnesses regarding Christ’s redemption message.
His life is a testimony to God’s redemption. It may be an urban legend but I read once that G Gordon Liddy said upon hearing that Chuck Colson had become a christian that Colson “would run over his gramma for Nixon I can only imagine what he’ll do for Jesus Christ”. I read that last week was the first time in a long time he spent Easter Sunday somewhere else other than prison. He usually worked with a prison fellowship group every Easter for many years. I recall seeing him on Crossfire in the early 80’s whern they had Pat Buchanan andTom Bradon was the liberal. Bradon was skeptical of Colson christian conversion but after that show was convinced his faith was real. Colson’s life is a testimony to God’s grace.
May his family be comforted knowing how many lives he touched and changed for the better. What a great example he set in life. RIP, Chuck.
May he rest in peace. He was a man who truly devoted his life to doing God’s work on Earth.
RIP Chuck
