Sir Francis Newport, sceptic: ‘I know I am lost forever! Oh, that fire! Oh, the insufferable pangs of hell!’All these and more can be seen on a compelling Youtube presentation called 'Famous atheists' last words before dying.' Contrast the above with the words of two men who truly knew God. King David of Israel: ‘Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, Thou art with me.’ Paul the apostle: ‘Oh death, where is thy sting? Oh Hades, where is your victory?...Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.' 1 Cor 15:55,56 'For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.' Philippians 1:21 'For our citizenship is in heaven.' Philippians 3:20 'Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit...' Colossians 2:8 'I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only, but also to all who have loved His appearing.' 2 Timothy 4:7,8 [2 of 3]
