Christian Teen Shares Final Thoughts Before His Death

Check out this song for some encouragement. Faith Hill-There Will Come A Day. Be blessed! :)

This is a great encouragement to those people, who has lost their hope in Christ due to their circumstances.May God bless and give comfort to Ben's family.

Thank you for posting this. I'm not a cheater of death, but a seeker. I suffer from bipolar disorder and most of the time that means major depression. I've been hospitalized over a dozen times since I was thirteen, including once a few days ago. I wish I could say that I saw this video and am now healed" but I can't. I still have my disorder and there will still be days where I feel sad. But seeing this story - seeing somebody go through something like this and still be alive - it gives me the courage to get up and try again tomorrow, and that's enough for now. (Also, what song is that? I feel like I've heard it and it is driving me CRAZY.)

My thoughts and prayers are with Ben's family and friends. Rejoice that this young man was delivered to His Angels on the day Jesus' birth.

I cried at the end of the video. We know that you are dancing with the angels right now Ben. We are just waiting patiently for His return for the church. You will be remembered!

No doubt there are places in the heart, and passageways still uncrossed, for mothers who suffer such loss. It is my hope that in the Great Beyond Ben’s mother finds mine, who lost not one, but two sons -- also under dire medical circumstances. I can only imagine that parental pain. I’m inspired by this mother’s celebrational sharing of her son’s video with the rest of us.

Thank you for this inspirational video. My dad cheated death twice, perhaps three times. He beat it this time in a special way on December 23, 2011 when he went home to be with the Lord. He knew his Savior and went out with a smile on his face. Pain and suffering no more!

I know about the peace that passes all understanding. This video will bring a lot of people to Christ. I love your son and his life. How proud you must be to have such a blessing be born to your family. I, like everyone else can't stop crying.............but it's a blessed cry. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. More people need Him in their life. Thank you Ben for leaving such a precious gift.

I have never cheated Death yet but my oldest son Donald has and I was not ale to be at his side because he is a prisoner of the State and was on life support and the State would not allow it.. I could only keep a Prayer Chain going and a prayer candle going. I was a nervous Wreck most of the time but there where times of PEACE when I felt GOD when I was in quiet Communion with Him alone..The only way I knew my Son was even in the Hospital was that a God sent caring Angel called me and told me my Son was there... Thank GOD.. And Thank God he is Still With me Today Unlike My Other Son Nathan I lost Whom Is with God Today.. He was 23 when I lost him.

Does anyone know what the song is that is playing over this? It's familiar. Please help with the info. May God greatly bless this family in Jesus' name.

Phillipians 1:21 ((For me to live is Christ to die is gain)).

I love your Boy. We will be there soon.

To Ben's family and friends; I have also been blessed to have the Lord give me a few more chances on this earth. I live with a seizure disorder and several other health problems. In 2006, I came down with a regular cold. During that, one night, I noticed I had a light fever. I did not think much of it, so I went to bed. That is the last thing I remember until waking up in ICU 2 weeks later from a coma. I had gotten a severe form of septic pneumonia, a lung staph infection, and strep. When I was brought into the hospital from my home, the doctors told my wife, I would have only made it another hour had I not come to the hospital. Also, several times during my stay in the ICU, I was so very close to death that the doctors were sure I would not make it. Several people were praying for me though, and Jesus does answer prayers. I had several similar dreams, like your son had while I was in the coma. When I came out of it, I was paralyzed, and it took me 2 months in a nursing home to learn to move and walk again. My lungs are permanently damaged, and I need to be careful every time I get any type of cold or flu now. I will be praying for you. I lost both of my parents in 2008 to cancer, so I know the difficulty.

For some reason. while watching this video everytime he puts up a card, it goes all black.

This is a sad story, and I pray that God will show himself real to Ben's family. But am I missing something? I admit that I had no idea who Ben Breedlove was before learning of his death in the news, so maybe he has given a clear testimony of his faith in Jesus Christ alone for his salvation. (Someone please point me to his video of it, if it is true.) But if not, why is GodTube claiming him to be a "Christian"? What makes him a Christian? Was it is near death "experience"? Maybe the white room? Or maybe the rapper, Kid Cudi, who was there, too? I'm sure the Lord would have no problem with Cudi's songs that lead his listeners to rebellion and defiance against authority. Folks, feel-good stories are NOT a measuring stick of a person being a Christian. It is faith in Jesus Christ ALONE, after REPENTANCE from sin, that makes them a Christian. Nothing else. I'm not trying to lesson the meaning of Ben's life, or the hurt his family feels at this time. God give them grace. BUT, I do have a hard time with companies like GodTube that seem to jump on every feel-good story where "God" is even slightly mentioned and claim it as "Christian" for all of us sheep to be inspired by. Where is the reality of true Christianity here? Where is evidence of Ben's testimony before GodTube labels him "Christian"? Go ahead and appreciate the story for what it is. Feel free to grieve and pray for Ben's family, and those of you who know Christ may even have a chance to reach out to them with the true Gospel: the ONLY thing that can truly help them at this time. But, please, for the integrity of the Scripture, the Gospel message, and Jesus Christ, the pure Son of God, do not label someone a "Christian" because they hold up a card saying they believe in God. Remember what James 2:19 says: "Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: THE DEVILS ALSO BELIEVE..." Belief in God never made a single person a Christian. It's a necessary start, but it must go beyond that. It was that way for Ben, and it must be that way for you and me. No exceptions. Ok, let the stoning begin! LOL.
