PSL 14:1 & 53:1
The fool hath said in his heart, there is no GOD.

HEBS 9:27
And as it is appointed unto men once to die but after this the judgment.

ECCL. 12:1
Rembmer now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the EVIL DAYS come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;

One of the evil days in the context above is when one dies to meet with his MAKER in order to give account of his/her soul. While another form of evil days is when the trumpet shall sound for the rapture of the saints.

For Michael Jackson, his evil days have come. But what lesson do we learn in order to prepare for our own evil days since we do not know the form it will take. Is it not better to make ways our right now before it is too late to make amends?

REMEMBER, THERE IS NO REPENTANCE IN HELL

Michael Jackson may be physically dead but his memory will remain with us for decades or even millennia  to come. Who know a religion might spring up to worship him 500yrs from now, he might be said to perform miracles by floating across floors without touching it, spinning around faster than a spinning top, and changed his race from black to white at will.

Of course the religionists, especially the Christian variant would happily say he cannot make Heaven, which is reserved for special people that shares their beliefs. It provides for them an euphoric sense of importance and self worth, even if their lives have no purpose and meaning to anybody, save probably their wives and children. It would make them feel more special than the most popular man in the universe - MICHAEL JACKSON.

Michael was not just a star, he was a SUPERNOVA, shining brighter than all the stars in the Galaxy, put together.

who has gone and come back to tell us the category of people that will be there ?
SO DO NOT JUDGE FOR YOU NOT TO BE JUDGED.

i dont know
and i dont wish to know

@poster only the lord knows

Very well said he will never die because he lives in his music.

He'll, by his Creator's grace.

I:

Pastor AIO:

I'm well thank you, o jare. Hope you're good too. I'm just dipping into nairaland from time to time hoping that I'll read something entertaining but so far today I've been disappointed. Although I've only just discovered the debate between Abuzola and Osisi on the thread about questions christians don't want to answer or something. That one was fun to read.

haha. . . there is more battling on the religion section than the sports section. Kinda ironic IMO.

, And the poster is supposed to be a pastor, right?

^^^ How does that affect anything?

And how does that affect anything?

don't understand the purpose of this question. since when is it up to us to render verdict?

This purpose of this question is a joke. It's supposed to be a parody of some threads that we've had before that asked similar questions and were participated in vigorously. I felt they kinda typified NL in a way. That is why I said it was in the spirit and tradition of NL.

did Jade Goody go to heaven. Find out here.

Do not judge

Do not judge

If this were a commandment on which our redemption was to depend then I'm sorry but everybody on Nairaland is going to Hell.

Mukaila Jimoh popularly knwn as Michael Jackson was born a xtian. Made fame and fortune as a xtian then turned 2 Islam and his career ended and he died.
Michael Tyson also converted 2 Islam and lost his stance as a great boxer.
Mohammed Ali converted 2 Islam and now is suffering a disease. Is something nt wrng with dis great religion? How can u move 4rm light in2 darkness and xpect 2 c. Jesus is the only truth.

they said he gave his heart to christ 3 weeks before his death. hopefully he will be in heaven

mukaila jimoh ko mukinat jinadu ni

@ayusman16:Ronald Reagan died as a Christian with Alzeihmer. He wasted away and because he was unlike his former healthy looking over 6ft former self, they had a close casket! Now tell me, what is the consequent of this relative to his Christianity?

The Iron Lady, who was at a time the most powerful woman on earth, is a Christian suffering with dimenti or Alzeihmer, at least! Whats the conclusion of this with Christianity?

I ask you these because of your saying that Islam has something to do with some people who are suffering from Malady or die after convertion to it. What about the situation with Christianity; any opinion, ewhether Christianity is real or not, as you are insinuating above about Islam?

I HOPE!!!

R U saying God is punishing them for turning to Islam ??I must say thats a pretty good observation.

I'm flattered.  This exceeds my humble expectations for this thread.  Now we are going to have a christian muslim fisticuffs.  Go for it guys!

I am not God, Leave it for him he is his creator.

Chrisbenogor:

See I always tell the Christians that hell would be populated with the best, see how the world is shaken by his death, how many men of God die and shake the world this way?
Abeg if it is hell MJ, Bill gates , Ghandi and the rest will be I want to book my ticket there when me time comes 

Did you notice how stupid your comment sounds?

deebrain:

It is very sad and pathetic that Christians {especially Nigerian Christians} are so nosy and guilty of this truth-- that salvation is a personal affair! What is the business of anybody if anybody dead has gone to heaven or hell? Why don’t you ask God or the Devil {if you have such good line of communication with the latter?}Every body should work out his own salvation and should please focus on it.
It is very sad that again in Naira land, another fear of mine has being confirmed—that one day {since some of the starters of these baseless threads are not looking for knowledge but argument and cheap popularity}, would start asking for the colors of contributors’ boxers and under wears.
But I advise; when that question would come up, please give them a response similar to the response that should be given to this thread—“IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!!”

Your post was the reason I asked if the poster was supposed to be a pastor.

This simple question has charged up some environments but the truth is inevitable. Whatsoever a man reaps that he will sow.

He has back sliden to heaven then.

No, he was backsliding but at the last minute he repented with a twirl and a skip onto his toes.
