Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. Ecclesiastes 12:1
There is a Teachable Moment in this story.....
What IF you could go back to when Van Halen was on top of the secular music industry in 1984 and ask "you only have 36 years to live...WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH EACH OF THOSE 36 YEARS AND EACH DAY"?
*Will you live it for glory and fame of a dying, lost world OR turn to your Creator?
With ALL his MONEY and FAME he didn't even make it to 70.
Think about that.....
Jump ahead 36 years after 1984 exploded onto the secular charts ...and this is how it ended....
"Guitarist Eddie Van Halen has died at age 65. Van Halen died at St. Johns Hospital in Santa Monica, California, of throat cancer, with his wife Janie, son Wolfgang and his older brother, Alex, at his side. cnet."
So that's how it ended.
Q: What's Next?
A: For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. 2 Corinthians 5:10
