11/15/2005 - 5:30am(CT) ADRIAN ROGERS FOUNDER OF LOVE WORTH FINDING AND PASTOR EMERITUS OF BELLEVUE BAPTIST CHURCH
September 12, 1931 - November 15, 2005
Dr. Adrian Rogers, Founder of Love Worth Finding Ministries, Pastor Emeritus of Bellevue Baptist Church and a gifted man of God passed away in to the presence of the Lord early this morning after battling cancer and double pneumonia.
I imagine literally thousands who came to know Jesus because of his ministry met him at the gate as he stepped over to glory and beheld the face of Jesus.
Details are incomplete at this time, but please continue to check this web site for updates and also please continue to pray for the Rogers' family.

I posted about his struggle yesterday in the Religion forum, but feel all didn't see it. God bless you Dr Rogers. You were an inspiration to me.

The local Memphis news is reporting he passed around 5:30 this morning.

Oh no!
I had no idea he was sick. I listen to him M-F on the radio from 9am - 9:30 on 101.4. I don't know of anyone who can fill his shoes. He was excellent. He cut through the nonsense and preached the truth. No doubt he is in heaven. He will be sorely missed.

Thank you, I have enjoyed him more than once on WBCI.

Dr. Rogers was a great preacher and teacher of the Bible. This is sad for those of us still earthbound. He will certainly be missed. I knew he was not doing well because it had been mentioned in our church service as our pastor is good friends with him.
I don't even know how to get to the religion forum. I wish I had seen that. Maybe we need to set up a Baptist ping list, are you game, if not I will. I know there's a Catholic ping list here on FR.
Dr. Roger's was scheduled to come to Jacksonville Florida for the Pastor's Conference at First Baptist for Dr. Vines retirement. Now we certainly shall have to do a tribute to Dr. Rogers as well!

Dr. Vines is out of town and I'd bet I know where he has been now. Got a link to the newscast?

They would joke around at Pastor's Conference that Adrian Rogers is the Baptist Pope.

I am sorry to hear this, I respected him greatly and what a messenger of God is was. Nay God be with his love ones and give them comfort.
To: Sybeck1
"Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints".
His ministry on earth is done, now he beholds the face of God and His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ.
"To be absent from the body is to be present with the LORD".
