the old man;;

there is an old story which speaks of and old man who had never believed or prayed to god his whole life, who had never had a religion. this old man walked into a church one day and prayed to god just that one time for forgiveness. God forgave the man the instant he asked for redemption. the next day the old man died in his sleep. the old man went to heaven even though he never acknowledged God until the day before he passed to a better place.





God is forgiving! he loves all of his beautiful works. he created many people and many cultures who to us seem strange and unusual but to him they are family. I have herd from many people that when some one dies we can pray for there forgiveness. And God will listen to the prayers of the lost ones family and friends. the people who believed that suicide would bring them to God in the "hidden space ship" did not follow Gods will but in the Holy Bible it states "he who believes in God shall have everlasting life." those people believed in God and he knew that and he kept his promise and granted them everlasting life.
