Well I am in End of Life Hospice care at the Togus Hospital in Augusta Maine.
So, I reckon I can say just about anything I want to about politics, politicians, false prophets, preachers and everything else.
If you were in my shoes, what would you say and to whom.
Praise God for that! I'd say, "just ask the Lord to show you a few more people who need His love, and a full understanding of His salvation.
Your 'bags' are packed, you have your ticket for Eternity in hand. Just savor the moment and the anticipation of seeing Him face to face. "The joy of the Lord is your strength" (Nehemiah 8:10) Share as much of that joy with as many people as you can.
"Joy is the serious business of Heaven.”
–C.S. Lewis, Letters to Malcolm
Prayers for you Bob.
A man has to what he thinks best, even up to the end.
Good journey to you!
God bless you and prayers for you, Mr. Celeste. May all your sufferings be eased at this time and a painless transition. Hopefully we will see you again on the other side.
God bless you and yours, my friend. You are a better man than I. When the Lord calls, follow humbly, and ask that He forgive us all our transgressions. We’re all honored that you choose to spend your last days here, with us.
God bless and keep you.
Someone stated that your work is not done here. That being said, maybe someone has been touched by this thread and your profile page and had a ‘Road to Damascus’ moment....
Anyways, glad to have gotten to say hey and thank you. See you around when my time is up on this mortal coil. God Bless and Godspeed sir.

Thank you for fighting the good fight. We’ve got it from here but if it’s your wish to continue until you can’t; then we should respect your decision.
In heaven, the way I imagine it anyway, there’s no division like here. Good souls united in a common cause. All the heathens are elsewhere and not our concern there.
Peace be upon you Sir and Thank You! Maybe we will meet on the other side...
:^)
I uave no idea what I would say.
:(
Prayers up.
We are traveling in the footsteps
Of those who’ve gone before
But we’ll all be reunited (but if we stand reunited)
On a new and sunlit shore (then a new world is in store)
Oh when the saints go marching in
When the saints go marching in
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
And when the sun refuse (begins) to shine
And when the sun refuse (begins) to shine
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
When the moon turns red with blood
When the moon turns red with blood
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
On that hallelujah day
On that hallelujah day
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
Oh when the trumpet sounds the call
Oh when the trumpet sounds the call
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
Some say this world of trouble
Is the only one we need
But I’m waiting for that morning
When the new world is revealed
When the revelation (revolution) comes
When the revelation (revolution) comes
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
When the rich go out and work
When the rich go out and work
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
When the air is pure and clean
When the air is pure and clean
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
When we all have food to eat
When we all have food to eat
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
When our leaders learn to cry
When our leaders learn to cry
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
May God grant you peace.
I would be sure I was right with God and had accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. I would make sure I had told my family to do likewise to the best of my ability. Then I would spend the rest of my time loving on my family and friends and making sure they knew how I felt about them. May God carry you home peacefully and may you spend eternity gazing on the One who gave up all for you. Godspeed and may you make it safely home.
I would tell my family I loved them.
Nothing else you have to say matters.
Hey Bob, is that you, in your profile..?
If so, how old are you..?
Tears in my eyes, old friend. I guess we won’t have that meet up @ Newburyport airport. I’m praying for you. I’m not ready to let you go. Hopefully our Lord isn’t either. Be healed in the name of Jesus. Much love for you, Brother.
Thank you! I just said the same thing, albeit different wording! PTL Rise and be healed in His name, Bob.
Hope is a four letter word....but a good one, my friend.
First I’d make sure I’m totally reliant on Jesus Christ....so that I have peace with God, whom I will meet soon.
Everything else is trivial by comparison.
I’m ready for The Almighty to take me Home, have been for years. I figure there are still things that God wants me to do and I pray regularly for Him to show me these things, so I can do His will on earth and leave for my real home in Heaven.
To be absent from the body is to be present with The Lord.
May your passage to Heaven be peaceful, and may the face of Jesus be the first you see. God Bless you.
Eternity with God awaits us as Christians. Praise Be To God.
