Larry King is known for many things. He has been on radio
and television since 1957, interviewing thousands of guests over the decades.
He has been married eight times to seven women and recently filed for divorce
from his seventh wife.
He calls himself an “agnostic atheist,” which is
an interesting and contradictory description. An “agnostic” is
someone who does not know (or says we cannot know) whether God exists; an
“atheist” is someone who claims with certainty that he does not.
King is now opening up about his views on life after suffering a near-fatal stroke in March 2019. He told People magazine, “I have less fear of dying now.” He added: “I’m 86 and it is what it is. I just want to keep working until the end. I’d like to die at work—I’ll retire right there!”
He has no plans to slow down. “I’m very proud of what I do,” he says. “And I’m a good father—nothing beats parenthood. There’s an element of pinching myself every day. Look at what I’ve come through. All in all if you look at it, I’ve had a blessed life.”
The correlation between Larry King’s irreligiosity and his views on death is not surprising. According to surveys, at least 80 percent of religious Americans believe hell exists, while fewer than 5 percent of non-religious Americans agree.
The reality of hell and urgency of love
God’s word is much clearer on the subject than public
opinion: “If anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he
was thrown into the lake of fire” (Revelation 20:15). Those whose names
are “written in the book of life” are those who have trusted in
Christ as their Lord (Luke 10:20; Philippians 4:3; Revelation 3:5).
As a result, those who most deny the reality of hell are
those who are most likely to go there.
This is one of Satan’s most effective strategies. If he can
convince people that there are no eternal consequences to their rejection of
God’s saving love,…
