Rev. David Wilkerson, founding pastor of Times Square Church in New York City and author of the well-known book The Cross and the Switchblade, was killed Wednesday in a car accident, according to a source close to CBN News. He was 79.
Wilkerson was driving east on U.S. 175 and moved into the opposite lane where a tractor trailer was driving westbound. The truck driver saw the car and tried to move out of the way, but still collided with the car head on, according to Public Safety Trooper Eric Long....

Did he not suffer from Parkinson's disease? Also the medication may have not functioned, if he forgot that morning to take his medication and forgot the seat belt in the car and his muscles and body functions did not operate well while driving the car... So, did NWO kill the man, because the driving license was not taken away?
Much assumption/speculation in this post, based on nothing.
"If he forgot," "and forgot," "because of," "did he not," "may have not," don't amount to substance.
PS if driving license should be taken away based on likelihood of accident, the young would not be able to drive.

I am also saddened to hear of David Wilkerson's death.
May I ask a prayer request, may we pray and intercede for the driver of the tractor trailer, and his family especially their salvation if they are not already believers. Thanks.
I am sad to hear a man of god who set up teen challenge for drug addicts and times square church a beacon of light for this generation, he is a legendary character and a humble man of god who want the glory to go to god rather than him He was a man who had his eye on the culture and knew what was going on in every sphere of life from the drug world to the world of politics A man in the elk of d l moody and David livingstone A man who spoke in the English parliament about the evils of this culture A man who will be greatly missed and hopefully we will have Many more men of faith to fill up the great halls of men of faith in the future and that the baton will be pasted on to this generation A person who I use to download his sermons every week He will be greatly missed
I Am Saddened To Hear Of The Death Of Br. David Wilkerson. He Indeed Had A Personal Life Ministry Of True Piety & Holiness.
Although I May Not Be Of His Personal & "Pentecostalic" Theological Persuasion, Belief & Conviction; He Did Give His Life Over To The Ministry Of The Downtrodden, The Unreached & Socially Outcast "Souls" Of Men Such As Street "Gang Members", Street "Drug-Dealers" & "Drug-Users";
Not To Mention The Rest Of The "Publicans", "Sinners", "Harlots", "Whoremongers", "Prostitutes" & "Pimps";
That The Professing Christian "Churches" Don't ALL Reach: But ALL Whom CHRIST JESUS DIED FOR; As HE Commands ALL To REPENTANCE From SIN Unto SALVATION Through HIS SPIRIT, BLOOD & THE GRACE HE GIVES FOR THE LIVING OF A SINLESS LIFE (Or A HOLY LIFE; Though WE Are Still Yet Found SINNERS: SAVED BY GRACE) !
The "Fruits" Of Br. Wilkerson's Ministry Is What He Will Be Eternally KNOWN For.
He Did Bear GOOD Fruit For OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST & HIS KINGDOM--FRUIT THAT WILL ENDURE UNTO ETERNAL LIFE !
I Was GREATLY BLESSED By His LAST Daily Devotion "WHEN ALL MEANS FAIL".
I Believe IT Was Personally Written To Me & His Family:
"I cannot tell you why right now, but one day it will all make sense. You will see it was all part of [GOD's] plan. It was no accident..."--D.W.
David was a Godly man who lived the life that he preached. His ministry and message was one of uncompromising holiness and love for the Lord Jesus Christ. My family and I were deeply touched by his ministry over the years. He will be greatly missed! See you in heaven David!
Our hearts go out to David's family in this time of sorrow. We also joy in this as well, for this brave man of God has finally shaken loose the shackles of sin and the flesh! Praise God for his ministry, it has touched me and many thousands as well.
Of course being a premillenialist, (listen to) Evidence for the Pre-Trib Rapture part 1 and Evidence for the Pre-Trib Rapture part 2. We would rather depart this life that way than by physical death, but even we of this theological viewpoint should, and no doubt most do, that we are likely to have a physical death. Dr. Wilkerson no doubt knew this, and was perhaps better prepared than most, but even though he was, the family and friends never are entirely, so all Christians can take comfort that the dead are in God's hands and that's always a good place to be for a Christian.
This is a very sad day with the loss of David, I was touched by his ministry years ago on a sermon he did on Bearing Fruit. Does anyone know how his wife is?
Oh how the mighty have fallen in the midst of the battle...Abba thank you for men such as Brother Dave! Comfort, by your Spirit, the Wilkerson family right now. Baruch Ha-Shem
