“Some accounts have him becoming born-again in the years prior to his death.”
Do a search for the lyrics to “Help Me To Help Myself,” one of his last songs. Hard to believe that song could have been written by an atheist.
Well, if you look at that CBN article (referenced above)the author writes that Lennon did have a born again phase but Yoko steered him out of it. The author concludes that
“Before he was murdered in 1980, Lennon embraced a universalistic belief of religion and no longer seemed interested in his born-again lifestyle.”
That’s probably correct, although only God knows his heart.
