Don't Die This Way

For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away. But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. 1 Peter 1:24-25

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment 

Heb 9:27

The quotes below are quite well published abroad and you probably have heard them before. Some people would challenge them and that is their business. 

I merely record them here as a thought provoker that there is life after death. I would rather the reader to entertain those thoughts now than before it is too late for it to do much good.
 Tomorrow we will hear a different side of the story.

Karl Marx, born in a Christian Jewish family, originator of Communism. On his deathbed surrounded by candles burning to Lucifer, screamed at his nurse who asked him if he had any last words:
"Go on, get out! Last words are for fools who haven't said enough."

Cesare Borgia, statesman:"I have taken care of everything in the course of my life, only not for death, and now I have to die completely unprepared."

David Hume, the Atheist, He cried: "I am in flames!" His desperation was a horrible scene.

Henry the Eighth:When his turn came:
"So, now all is gone—Empire, Body and Soul!"

Napoleon Bonaparte,

Niccolo Machiavelli:

"I desire to go to Hell and not to Heaven. In the former I shall enjoy the company of popes, kings and princes, while in the latter are only beggars, monks and apostles"

Voltaire, the famous skeptic, 
Voltaire died a terrible death. His nurse said: "For all the money in Europe I wouldn’t want to see another unbeliever die! All night long he cried for forgiveness."

Sir Thomas Scott,
Scott, once president of the English Lower House said: "Up until this time, I thought that there was no God neither Hell. Now I know and feel that there are both, and I am delivered to perdition by the righteous judgment of the Almighty."

Stalin

About Stalin's death struggle, his daughter Swetlana Allilujewa, who in March 1953 was called to the dying dictator in his dacha in Kunzewo, stated: "Father died terribly and difficult. God gives the righteous an easy death."

The Rich Man and Lazerus-- A story from the Bible on this topic Luke 16:19-31

 ¹⁹There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

 ²⁰And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,

 ²¹And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

 ²²And 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;

 ²³And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

 ²⁴And 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.

 ²⁵But 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.

 ²⁶And 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.

 ²⁷Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:

 ²⁸For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

 ²⁹Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

 ³⁰And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

 ³¹And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
