Yes, he would also want you to pray for his family during their time of grief and to also pray for America. He would also want you to pray that all peoples find Jesus Christ. He would want you to be in constant prayer, continually speaking with God.

I can understand all of that, but I'd be surprised that he'd want prayer for the dead, what with Luke 16:26...
And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

That is fine as Mr. Falwell is with God now. But please pray for his family and keep on upholding all the values Mr. Falwell stood for.

If you look back yellowdogs first posting saying, "pray for him" was at posting #3 when it was only known that Falwell was taken to the hospital after being found unresponsive. At that time they had not mentioned he was already dead.
