Will Robin Williams Be Heaven Bound

Will Robin Williams Be Heaven Bound

To whole world, this had been quite a big blow;
Off to heaven, will Robin be bound to and go;
Instantly, body be buried after being prepped,
For God in heaven to successfully accept.

Beliefs people have often seem so strange;
Things are called emotionally and mentally derange;
Going to heaven, how should this affect your approach
Or on others thoughts and beliefs, does this encroach.

Not following procedure and being properly prepared
May make some people worry while others are scared;
So gracious God who I pray to each and every day
Please go ahead and take his fine soul anyway.

Robin Williams will always be in our minds for a long time.

Eileen Manassian August 15, 2014 at 4:37 AM I read an article by a Bible scholar about the issue of suicide and whether that was the ultimate sin since no remission is possible. People always think that a person who commits suicide is hell bound. How can there be forgiveness after someone breaks the command, "Thou shalt not kill?" Accountability is the question. Once a person's thinking process has been compromised, how can they be held accountable? God is merciful. Only He can judge, but there is hope even for those who take their lives. James Horn October 6, 2021 at 3:13 PM People still think that God is mad at us for killing His son. Yet, both God and Jesus knew what would happen. James Horn August 16, 2014 at 8:09 PM I think that the only way you will not end up in heaven is not wanting to go there and rejecting God. Buttttt!!! God gave us a soul. It is his and he wants it back if we want him to have it back. It is difficult for me to envision a part of God being in hell. Sometimes, I think that hell was just an invention to encourage us to walk the straight and narrow by being afraid to go to hell. Suppose hell is the reciprocal of heaven. What would that be like? Jim Horn Eileen Manassian August 15, 2014 at 4:38 AM Very powerful write. Thank you for sharing. I like to think that there is hope for Robin.
