Why Do People Provoke God?

Here is an email that I received this week that really got me thinking. I know that a lot of these email stories can be fake but not all.

If you choose not to believe in God that is your choice. On the other hand how can you be 100% sure of your decision? There is no proof that he does not exist.

If you choose not to believe why would you not take the safe route and keep your mouth shut. Your opinion is fine but why say rude things about God if you are not totally sure? It might save your butt in this life or the next.

Just my thoughts, the email is below and are the statements by these people really true? I would love if someone from the Lennon era could chime in and clarify.

DID YOU KNOW THESE FACTS?
I SURE DIDN'T TILL NOW!

Death is certain but the Bible speaks about untimely death!

Make a personal reflection about this......

Very interesting, read until the end..... It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7):
'Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sow, that shall he also reap.

Here are some men and women who mocked God:

John Lennon (Singer):
Some years before, during his interview with an
American Magazine, he said:Christianity will end, it will disappear.. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain.

Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, today we
are more famous than Him' (1966).

Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous
than Jesus Christ, was shot six
times.

Tancredo Neves (President of Brazil ):
During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got
500,000 votes from his party, not even God would
remove him from Presidency.

Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before
being made President, then he died.

Cazuza (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):
During a show in Canecio ( Rio de Janeiro), while
smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke
into the air and said:'God, that's for you.'

He died at the age of 32 of LUNG CANCER in a horrible
manner.

The man who built the Titanic
After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked him
how safe the Titanic would be.

With an ironic tone he said:'Not even God can sink it'
The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic

Marilyn Monroe (Actress)
She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to
her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: 'I
don't need your Jesus'. A week later, she was found dead in her apartment

Bon Scott (Singer)
The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:'Don't stop me; I'm going down all the way, down the
highway to hell'.

On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.

Campinas (IN 2005)
In Campinas, Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend. The mother accompanied her to the car and was so
worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand, who was already seated in the car.

'My daughter, Go With God and may he protect you. She responded: 'Only If He (God) Travels In The Trunk,
Cause Inside Here. It' is Already Full

Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in
a fatal accident, everyone had died, the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact.

The police said there was no way the trunk could have
remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none was broken.

Christine Hewitt (Jamaican Journalist and entertainer)
said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written.
In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition
in her motor vehicle.

Many more important people have forgotten that there is
no other name that was given so much authority as
the name of Jesus. Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose again, and he is still alive.
