Yeah, and that's fine, no problem. As was I.
Even with my comments earlier about Hawkings'. He does know the truth. It ends with the grave, re-incarnation, or where people desire a drop of water off the end of a beggar's finger, he now knows.
Just as an Islamist homicide bomber knows, the instant he presses the trigger. I think his first word after that is oops, but he knows regardless.
Even as we will know, when that time comes for us.
Wise Men Still Seek Him
At this point, it doesn't matter. The man is gone. Where he is now is based on his own choice.

The description of people begging for a drop of water always gave me the chills
THE END ISN'T NEAR.........IT'S HERE
The problem is not global warming – it is moral cooling.
I believe he will be resurrected, when all who are in their graves will hear the voice of the Son of God and come forth. They will be judged for the things they did while in the body. Someday they will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father, which can only be done through, or by, the Holy Spirit. They will learn righteousness when God's judgments are in the earth. (Is 26:9b)
None of that makes any sense. No one will be given a chance to learn righteousness and come to know the Lord after death. Yes, the Bible says that in the end every knee shall bow, and every tongue will confess, but that has nothing to do with unbelievers coming to know Christ, after they have died. Even the demons believe, and acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, but that doesn't mean they have found salvation.
I'm not gonna discuss this with you further, unless you take it down to The Chapel. You can start a new discussion about Hawking and his salvation, or reopen the old thread where universal salvation has already been discussed in circles.
Hawking now explained: "What I meant by 'we would know the mind of God' is, we would know everything that God would know, if there were a God. Which there isn't. I'm an atheist."
But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. ~ Matthew 10:33

I have set the LORD always before me: because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. ~ Psalm 16:8
