People are… amusing? Is that the right word for this? I received these three comments on my Dawkins page. I reprint them here for your enjoyment. Let me know what you think…
Hello Michael,
Now the reason I came to your site is that an important message has been sent down, just like a News Update. I have a message to tell you about Revelation. The message is from God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost. Sent in the Spring of 2006. It is about the meaning of <b>First is Last</b> and Last is First. The message is this:
<b>In the morning I go to Heaven. In the afternoon I live my life. In the evening I die, death. </b> What does this mean? In other words this means Birth is Last and Last is Birth. To understand this don’t think from point A to point B. Think of this as a continous circle of life. Birth, Life, Death, Birth. God also said that Judgment will be before Birth in Heaven. As birth on Earth is painful so will birth in Heaven. Yes, God has recently made contact and he sent a messenger.
This will help you understand this message better, Did you know that Mike Douglas died on his birthday? Melanie Steffen*****
Now Richard Dawkins made some good points in his book. As a scienctist he should have taken one more avenue. He could have concluded that maybe parts of the bible are the word of man and not the word of God. He would have been closer to the truth.
Now God also told me that <b>Richard Dawkins</b> goes to heaven. He says that he is an embarrassment, but God is fond of him. He thinks of him as a pet. What this means to me is that God is also saying you don’t have to believe in God or Jesus to get into heaven. Athiests can go to Heaven.
God also had something to say about <b>Jerry Falwell</b>, well known TV evangelist. God said that Jerry does not go to Heaven. He doesn’t go to Hell either. Jerry falls into a third catagory of people he doesn’t want in Heaven, and he doesn’t want to punish him either. Jerry just disappears, vanishes. What this means to me is that just believing in Jesus does not get you into Heaven. It takes more than that.

One more example is Leona Helmsley. God sends her to Hell. Now Leona was a mean witch for a good part of her life, right up to the day she died. God gave her everything, good looks, money, opportunities, and even more money. Things most of us will never have. She saw herself a Queen in her Hotel and would fire people for very small things. Before she fired people she would berate them. There are hundreds of stories. When Leona realized that she was dying she asked God to forgive her. So she knew about God. God said it was the 11th hour, it was to late to say your sorry. God sent Leona to Hell. Leona right now is alone and in the dark. She thought she was better than everyone else, so she is all by herself.
What this means to me, is that waiting until the last minute to say your sorry, and asking God to forgive you does not work.
This also means that God will forgive you, God is forgiving. You need to change your ways before it is to late though.
It says in the Bible that God is forgiving, so parts of the bible are correct.

not just parts of the bible are correct the whole thing is god breathed thus being correct in whole…….and there are other things i don’t understand here god as unending grace thus making what your saying about the lady (leona) is that she is just repenting not out of love for heavenly father but for the fact of selfishness that she doesnt want to go to hell….so its not the fact that its too late its the fact taht saying your sorry from your heat is much different than from your lips…..your lips lie but the heart tells the truth….the other part is the evangelist so your saying theres a third “world” thats between heaven and hell thus not spending eternity with god would it not be hell then??…..and i doubt taht god has “pets” for his own amusement…..he is humorus…..but thats just weird…..
You could probably add the word ‘delusional’.
To Mike Klassen,
My though is that a number of people think they can just wait until they are about to die to ask God to forgive them. They can just do what they want, be as evil as they please and then at the 11th hour ask God to forgive them. It seems reasonable to me that you would have to change your ways before your about to die to get into Heaven. God does have unending grace but he was very clear about it being the 11th hour.
Another point here is that God picked Leona to make an example of her. She was set up.
What’s he smokin’?
Seems to be true, God does have a sense of humor. I found it humorous that the Atheist gains eternal life in Heaven and the Bible Toting Evangelist just vanishes. I mean, that is funny. IMO, God showed good judgment. People like Richard and most people dislike Jerry.
yes i understand that….buuuttt….if asking for forgivness does not come from the heart than its usless
I think when we get to heaven we’ll be surprised at who’s there….and probably even more surprised at who’s not.
These people aren’t well.
Correction: To the meaning of First is Last and Last is First. It means that Birth is Last and Birth is First. Sorry for the error. God talks in symbols and opposites at times so it takes time to figure out what he is saying. Some of his messages are clearer than others, plus they have multiple meanings.
I agree that atheists will go to heaven. They will stand before God on Judgment day. You can read all about it in Revelation 20:12-15.
