Thanks for noticing the difference! This article just came out today on Townhall and was not previously posted; nevertheless, at least we know the posting police are paying attention -although not enough to notice that they are different articles and not reposts. :)

God bless this warrior for Christ, and as was said above, may many more like him now spring up!

I love listening to his broadcasts on the radio. Such a wonderful speaker and defender of Truth.

He will be missed.

But he is now where he longed to be. This is one man I am certain will hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

Blessings to his family.

I deeply respected and supported this incredibly brave Christian...a real loss to the nation and the world.

May he now be blessed in the arms of the Lord Jesus.

A true Christian he was..... he is going to be missed.
I don’t consider his a “ mega church”. A large church, with a emphasis on Christian morality and integrity.

James Kennedy was a great Christian and a prolific writer. His books are wonderful testaments to his belief in the Lord Jesus Christ and Biblical promises. I am sure he is happy with the Lord now. He was a giant among Christian preachers and he will be sorely missed. God seems to be taking the good ones and leaving the liberal politicians. I guess this society will really be a hell on earth before the Lord returns. Let’s hope it is soon, very soon.

God bless Dr. Kennedy’s loved ones at this time. Dr. Kennedy himself is now in the presence of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ hearing those words, well done Good and Faithful Servant.....after which am sure Dr. kennedy ls laying all his crowns at Jesus’ feet.

Thanks be to God who gives us the victory throught Jesus Christ!

Dr. Kennedy’s impact and sermons and ministries will continue to reach the world, especially into the minds and hearts of skeptics and those who challenge the Christian faith, for decades.

The giants of the faith are leaving us. May God prepare and bring to the world more fishers of men.

So good to know! And God bless you too! Yes Evangelism Explosion had thunderous effects in the Kingdom of God, yet most have never heard of it. Glad you know first hand about that particular area of Dr. Kennedy’s ministry.

I’m bummed.
I didn’t agree with Kennedy on all points...but over time, I really
grew to respect him and Coral Ridge.
I’m still especially impressed at the “current affairs” segments that
ran during the last 10-15 minutes of The Coral Ridge Hours, as well
as the hour-long specials produced by Coral Ridge.
They almost always seemed to include interviews with “the opposition”
(ACLU, committed materialistic-Darwinists, etc).

I pray someone great fills Kennedy’s spot (even if he
“can’t be replaced”)

So far 50 pages long - what a testimony to the impact of one man’s life when yielded to His Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Any word on the Witness to the Resurrection service that will be held for Dr. Kennedy at his beloved and wonderful church?

This service should be broadcast the world over because it is the WORLD which has been the beneficiary of this man’s dynamic ministry. It has been the Lord Jesus at work in this one man’s life in a way that has affected the lives of millions for the better.

Praise God! Praise God! For the life and ministry of Dr. D. James Kennedy!
