Update II:

It looks like Gregory will have his life support pulled in the next day or two.
His mother has arrived and made the end-of-life decisions.
We are here to be salt and light and we will continue to be for his girlfriend.
Who knows the heart of a man at the final moments of life... we will continue to pray for his soul until the last moment.
Thanks everyone for your prayers. Now we shift to support mode. But miracles can still happen. So if anyone has faith for a real miracle... I am not that kind of prayer warrior.

Very sorry to hear of your friends illness.
IF it possible for you to visit him again, with this in mind.
The BODY SHALL die.
However the SOUL remains Alive.
Every sense continues;
Eyes see, Nose smells, Tongue tastes, Ears hear, Touch feels.

A living soul, departs the body and GOES to comfort WITH God...
Or GOES to misery WITHOUT God.

We see, a beautiful sky.
We smell, a lovely aroma.
We taste, a cool drink.
We hear, pleasant sounds.
We feel, the comfort of touch.

Misery is seeing, gloom and doom.
Misery is smelling, sulfur aroma.
Misery is tasting, nothing quenching a thirst.
Misery is hearing, screams of distress.
Misery is feeling, no comfort.

Luke 16:19-31

Sometimes atheists are atheists because they do not KNOW what they do not KNOW. Often believing when they die, oh well, body dead, rot, no worries....And true the body does die, (it’s life IS BLOOD), it rots, know nothing. However the LIFE IN the SOUL, is Gods Breath, and Gods Breath of Life IS eternal.
Gods BREATH WILL stay in his departed soul, yet separated from God in misery...UNTIL Judgement Day...Which is AFTER Jesus’ 1,000 yr reign plus the years in counting until the 7 year trib.

Not too in-depth, but important he know, a dead body is NOT his end.

When Lazarus resumed living, his living soul returned to his body.
When a widows son died, his living soul returned to his body and his body resumed living. (1 Kings 17:9 -24).

Agree, the importance is about his soul.

God Bless,
Taken

My sympathies go to his family and loved ones, truly. May God give him the peace he so desires whether it be as a sudden miracle or in the arms of rest in Christ...Amen

"If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you." I join in agreement with all, in prayer for Gregory.

I'm sorry for the sadness and pray that first and foremost his soul will be saved! If God will, I pray for a miraculous healing. Prayers for that and comfort for all concerned.

Gregory lost his battle yesterday.
Thanks for all your prayers.
We don't know that he came to faith in God before the end... but that is between Gregory and God.
We pray for his family and girlfriend.
We will continue to be salt and light to them.
Thanks again for the prayers.

My condolences brother, it is so sad no matter...we all prayed, God heard...His will is that none should perish...I believe He works in the hearts and minds of those who are on their death beds as He will do for all who still have breath left in them. God bless and comfort you all.

Condolences to the family and for your loss of a friend.
You never know if he in his last minute of being lucid called on to God for forgiveness and salvation. Prayer to God makes what seems the impossible, possible. Hold on to that hope. It was a very nice thing that you did, by coming on this forum asking for prayers of healing and salvation for him. May God bless you in return for your love and thoughtfulness. God, may David's friend be resting in peace in Your care, In Jesus Name, Amen
