Such a lovely and true quote. My fav. [size=16pt]@^[/size]

[size=16pt]@^[/size]Ditto with me and totally agree . . .

Couldn't say it better than the below . . .

John 14:6:


John 14:6

King James Version (KJV)

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Amplified Bible (AMP)

Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me.

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Jesus saith to him, `I am the way, and the truth, and the life, no one doth come unto the Father, if not through me;

New International Version - UK (NIVUK)

Jesus answered, I am, the way and the truth and the life. No-one comes to the Father except through me.

Contemporary English Version (CEV)

"I am the way, the truth, and the life!" Jesus answered. "Without me, no one can go to the Father.

Tom Paine was born in England.He lived in the period of christian revivals by John Wesley and George Whitefield.He lived and wrote against God,drawing hearts away from Christ.Tom Paine's words at the hour of death were "O Lord help me! God help me! Jesus Christ help me! O God! What have I done to suffer so much ".then shortly after,he said 'but there is no God '.And then again "yet if there be,what would become of me hereafter? " As the elderly woman who was his attendant left the room,Tom Paine said 'stay with me,for God's sake! for I cannot bear to be left alone.It is hell to be left alone' In terror,his very last words recorded in history were "My God,my God,why has Thou forsaken me?"

Last words of atheists

M.F. Rich: "Terrible horrors hang over my soul! I have given my immortality for gold; and its weight sinks me into a hopeless, helpless Hell!"

Thomas Paine
"I would give worlds if I had them, that The Age of Reason had never been published. O Lord, help me! Christ, help me! . . No, don't leave; stay with me! Send even a child to stay with me; for I am on the edge of Hell here alone. If ever the Devil had an agent, I have been that one."

Sir Thomas Scott: "Until this moment, I thought there was neither God nor hell; now I know and feel that there are both, and I am doomed to perdition by the just judgment of the Almighty!"

Sir Francis Newport, the head of an English infidel club: "You need not tell me there is no God for I know there is one, and that I am in His presence! You need not tell me there is no hell. I feel myself already slipping. Wretches, cease your idle talk about there being hope for me! I know I am lost forever! Oh, that fire! Oh, the insufferable pangs of hell!"

The last words of the atheist Mirabeau: "My sufferings are intolerable; I have within me a hundred years of life but not a moment's courage. Give me more laudanum that I may not think of eternity."

Gibbon, the historian, a skeptic: "The present is a fleeting moment, the past is no more, and my prospect of futurity is dark and doubtful."

Caesar Borgia: --- "While I lived, I provided for everything but death; now I must die, and am unprepared to die."

Thomas Hobbs: --- "I say again, if I had the whole world at my disposal, I would give it to live one day. I am about to take a leap into the dark."

Voltaire: --- "I am abandoned by God and man; I will give you half of what I am worth if you will give me six months' life." (He said this to Dr. Fochin, who told him it could not be done.) "Then I shall die and go to hell!"

Robert Ingersoll: --- "O God, if there be a God, save my soul, if I have a soul!" (Some say it was this way: "Oh God, if there be a God, save my soul if I have a soul, from hell, if there be a hell!"

this goes to show how DISHONEST and creepy christians are. . . they will throw all the LIES in the book to keep people in line with LIES and fear. . .@ recognise you have totally discredited yourself with all the LIES you have posted. . .why are you Lying like your fellow christian apologist?. . you visit christian websites that are full of LIES and post the LIES of other christians eh? . . . .Robert Ingeroll was just saying what christains were saying. . .but your fellow christain apologist took it completely out of context to mean he was saying it from his heart. . .he was only saying what christains were saying. . .just like when you say moslems say allahu akbar. . .does that mean you believe allah is great? by the way Robert Ingersoll wrote those words in his letter to the governor of Illinois at that time when the reublican party wanted him to run for governor on the grounds that he conceals his agnosticism but he refused and wrote the statement in a letter to the governor on the grounds that concealing information from the public was very immoral. those were not his last words as you VERY FALSELY claim . . .as for Voltaire you forgot to mention that Dr. Fochin later confessed that Voltaire never made such a comment to his friend John Nicholas. . .As for Thomas Paine he never said those words. . .Thomas Edison(a christian) was at his  bed when he died and he said that Thomas Paine never said any of those words that his rival Pastor Eric Price said he said his brother in-law also agreed with Thomas Edison that Paine never said what his rival pastor Eric price of Illinois said he said . .Caesar Borgia: wrote those words in a poem. . . they were not his last words stop lying for jesus. . . . I don't know of the rest but i believe they are also christian LIES too. . .what a shame you go to christian apologist websites and take up lies and keep spreading them all over the place. . .  . . . any way keep lying for jesus he will bless you in heaven when you die. . . 

"religion is embarrassing to the religious. hence the constant need to keep throwing out LIES and misinformation"

you're on the internet,don't be so desperate. Thomas Paine lived during the period of the revival by George Whitefield and John Wesley.Paine was born on 29th January 1737.He died on June 8,1809. About 37 years later ,Thomas Edison was born on 11th February,1847. Edison died on 18th October 1931. Its an atheist miracle, how Edison was at Paine's deathbed. MAZAJE and colleagues,quit lying for the devil.

Antiochus Epiphanes was a terrible personality who had no regard for God.Infact,he was touted to be the Antichrist.He tortured the Jews.Hear his experience. When the Jews rebelled against him,he was so angry that he vowed to make Jerusalem a common burial ground and was determined to march in with his soldiers immediately,but no sooner had he said his vows that he was struck with an incurable plague in his bowels. Worms bred so fast in his body that flakes of flesh dropped from him.The stench of his disease was such that no one could endure to be near him.When he could no longer endure his own smell,he said and I quote "It is meet to submit to God,and for man who is mortal not to set himself in competition with God." So he died miserably in a strange land on the mountains of Pacata near babylon.check your history friends. It pays to serve Jesus.

what is this?   so there is only one Thomas Edison that lived in the entire united states eh . . . .by the way did how did you come to the conclusion that i was talking about the same Thomas Edison that lived 37 years after Thomas Paine died   . . . .How is this different from saying that there is only one olusegun obasajo that lives in nigeria? George Washington is known to have a very good friend called Joseph Smith, what if i say that he had a friend called Joseph Smith and you say that i am lying because another Joseph Smith(the founder of the Mormon church) lived long after George Washington died Knaves and Pastor Eric Price invented all the stories about Thomas Paine and only fools believe them. . . besides the christians emissaries of the church,  that beset him on his death bed pious nurses, bigoted priests, and illiterate laymen there were also others like Thomas Edison,Willet Hicks,William Cobbett who were with him when he died and the said he never recanted his faith they wrote letters that have been documented till date. . .the only thing you have succeeded in doing is displaying you inability to reason and haste to make comments. . .read their accounts in the links below. . . .

another christian propaganda. . . . Reverenad Dan Baker is now an atheist so what the hell are you saying? . . .i bet this is another last word of an atheist on his dying bed too . . . . .

You see,thats what happens when you lie.you have to tell another lie to cover up your previous blatant lie and then you'll tell another one and then another. Let me give you a chance to tell some truth,what were pastors and rev.s doing all over TPaine's deathbed? Don't feign unconcern pls. Later on,please meditate on those great quotes that recognise and image123 posted earlier.They do your soul a load of good.

This saying highlighted above is not only true but also ties you up in knots and rib splitting laughter. 

If it turns out that there is a God, I don't think that he's evil. But the
worst that you can say about him is that basically he's an underachiever.
