Where Is Prince Now?

Prince started out in life as a Seventh Day Adventist. Sometime around 2001 he joined the Jehovah's Witnesses; which is the missionary arm of the Watchtower Society.

According to the Society's theology, human life is entirely physical. In other words; people experience no conscious existence beyond the demise of their bodies; and if there is no conscious existence beyond the demise of one's body, then of course there is no hell.

But supposing the Society is mistaken? If so, then that poor man crossed over the river Styx totally unprepared to run headlong into his worst nightmare.

Up here on the surface, Prince was a celebrity. But down there, if he's down there, Prince is just another skull among the myriads of forgotten souls who no longer matter.

There's only one operative question in that entire equation... Did he know Jesus?

No one knows, and there is no need to speculate. The Lord could have spoken to his spirit before his death and he could have responded.

I often wonder about that ^ Peeps...

If a person is truly and sincerely seeking God but gets caught up in a false religion such as JW's, will God receive them into the kingdom based on their heart's desire to know and connect with him, or if they don't come through Jesus, they don't get to enter in?

we're told that God alone knows hearts.

that should be enough.

John 14:6 (KJV)

6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

I believe Jesus can reach anyone at any time even during their last dying breath. "Nothing is impossible with God. His mercy endures forever."

He reached Paul as he rode on a donkey on the road to Damascus, and in a flash, he was saved! If Prince's theology was off, and being JW it certainly was off, who knows, Christ could've appeared to him before he died, or he could've called out to Jesus as he was dying (Rom. 10:13). That's why I don't assume whether a person was saved before dying, only God knows.

When we get to heaven I am sure we will be surprised by some who are there...and some who are not. :)
