According to the Associated Press, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs has died. He was 56.
In 2004, Jobs announced that he had been diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in his pancreas — one of the deadliest forms of cancer. Jobs resigned from Apple on August 24. In his resignation letter he said, the day had finally come when he could no longer perform his duties.
Wow that’s sad, even when you know how it’s gonna end
RIP to this amazing man!
Wow so sad. I’m watching it on the news now.
These pics always make me soooo sad because I remember when cancer did that to my grandpa, a slow, long, withering away, sad death.
Until I saw that, I never understood what people meant when they said they were in a better place. But that suffering, is just too much. Prayers to his family. RIP Steve!
A gifted man who inspired the world… RIP
Sad news. He was really frail a few weeks back on that photo. I’m sure he knew when he resigned from Apple. R.I.P iSteve!
Sad news to hear,… At least he is at peace now,..
I love my iPhone! Thank you Steve Jobs! Genius. Innovator. RIP
Damn, Sandra did you really have to use THOSE pics?
Ok, that’s much better.
RIP to Steve Jobs AND Rev Fred Shuttlesworth aka The Black Moses #civilrights
May he rest in peace. Words can’t describe the impact this man has made on the world and the way we listen and acquire music.
RIP. He was remarkable.
RiP Steve Jobs..
i lost my father to pancreatic cancer in 04′..it was a slow suffering death that seemed as though it was long & out drawn. I can only imagine how is family feels. I send my deepest sympathy to his family. November is national pancreatic cancer month.
Wow! Sad! I was really hoping for the best for him. RIP Steve.
@MsKay
What a BIG life, in such a short time. RIP SJ
May we all find ourselves doing what makes us truly happy before our journey ends.
RIP Steve Jobs and Fred Shuttlesworth. Two great human beings.
He had a short life but a good life.
Prayers and condolences to the Jobs family. I lost my grandmother in 2000 to pancreatic cancer and it was an entirely too long 6 months watching her battle it out. I was relieved when. She finally “went home” because to me, nothing was worse than watching her suffer.
Its a shame that he died so young but at least he led a remarkable life while here.
@thaspinaltruth
you are correct
RIP Fred Shuttlesworth a great freedom fighter.
RIP Steve. So sad.
RIP steve jobs
God not Steve AND Fred? Loved Fred for what he did for us and Steve for what he did for technology…growing up my dad was an IBM’er but we always had a Mac somewhere too. Like the Pepsi man dranking a Coke…
RIP to both…
Rip Steve waves my iPhone 4 around.. My granddad past from the same in 2000 I will never forget my son was 1… He’s 12 now my prayers go out to his family & friends
My condolences to his family. RIP Steve Jobs.
RIP Steve…… BAY Innovator Indeed…
We [my three kids and I] love our iPhones and iPads! Thanks to Mr. Jobs! May GOD bless him.
The black Moses??????????????????????????????
@Daisy are you kidding me???????????????
What the heck are you learning in your church????????????????
True great men inspire people to follow the Lord. That is all.
Hitler
Tupac
Jobs
Ghandi….etc…
all these men were ”great” in the eyes of man, but the men who are TRULY GREAT in the eyes of the Lord are the ones who do His commandments and inspire others to obey the Words of the Lord too.
All the GREAT men and women of the Bible were GREAT because of their close relationship and OBEDIENCE to the WORD OF THE LORD JEHOVAH.
Technology won’t get you to Heaven. Best believe that.
Out of Technology will arise the false prophet, the anti-christ, and the mark of the beast.
@redeemed777
Really, you include Hitler on that list?
Your beliefs are your own, and you’re entitled to them, but there is no need to be disrespectful. A great man just died, and I’m sure he has a lot of loved ones who are grieving right now.
@annabraa
Yes I said Hitler was ” great in the eyes of THE WORLD ” , but guess what? He is burning in hell forever!
This steve jobs person was great in the eyes of the world.
He inspired technology….NOT the saving of souls.
Jobs & Hitler had two different kinds of ” greatness ”, but their ” greatness ” did not contribute to the work of the Lord- which is the saving of souls.
MIND YOU…the WORD of the LORD will come to pass-will stand forever- whether you like it or not, or believe it or not:
—–> 12 For the devising of idols was the beginning of spiritual fornication, and the INVENTION of them the corruption of life.
13 For neither were they from the beginning, neither shall they be for ever.
14 For by the VAIN GLORY OF MEN they entered into the world, and therefore shall they come shortly to an end.
[ Wisdom of Solomon 14:12-14 ]
R.I.P. Steve
You never know someone’s personal beliefs. Just because he wasn’t vocal about them, doesn’t mean he wasn’t a believer.
R.I.P. Steve, you will be missed.
Damn I have been rocking with Macs since Oregon Trail and Word Muncher im an OG to the Steve Jobs Machine
Hope to see you in iHeavan Homey *purs out a little red bull for the dude*
@bnatural
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
” good works ” in this context means doing the commandments and statues of God, AND spreading the truth of the Lord:
….NOT COMING OUT WITH NEW IPADS/IPODS/MACS every year for people to buy buy buy and keep buying till debt turns into death!
Oh yeah, i forget…
Matthew 5:14-16 ( Not my words, but Christ’s Words )
@Redeemed777
God made the man a visionary in an industry when that industry didnt even exist…
Without people like him we would still be living in the dark ages….
wisen up
RIP Steve Jobs. A TRUE visionary of our time. He started Pixar, the company who put out the first computer animated movie, changed the way we view technology. In a way he DID save lives, the technology of Apple is probably used in the best hospital in the worlds. There was a commercial where I live where a doctor was using an IPhone to receive info about heart attack patients before they even reached the hospital. Oh, I would say he saved lives.
@lovezoe
Saved lives is different from Saved souls. Remember that.
@Redeemed, have a blessed day.
@Doc Holiday
Really? LOveryL!!
I guess all the prophets and disciples of Christ before us really missed out on all the fun huh?
@Redeemed777
Thats right..real Genius’s and innovators. Moving us forward,one of the reason you are the internet right now…now LOL at at fact!
Point blank, you have nothing to contribute to this world but rhetoric that you cant even seem to get anyone on this message board to follow. You probably havent changed any lives let alone inspired. I work in the IT field, so I know first hand what this guy started in his lane.
If you want to be saved. Pixar alone has brought happiness and joy to millions of children. I havent even began to talk about Apple….
go to church if you want soul salvation
@Doc Holiday
…just a reminder Doc, we are approaching Dark Ages, not leaving it.
You haven’t seen nothing yet.
” When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained.
10 They called out in a loud voice, “How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?”
11 Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed.”
Revelation 6:9-11
Have a nice day..and remember “do onto other as you would have them do unto you”
@Doc Holiday
You are lost man. Technology won’t save you on the day of God’s wrath.
It won’t.
Redeemed777 says:
” Technology won’t save you on the day of God’s wrath.
It won’t.”
_____
I have to agree with this.. technology, money, nor power.
@Redeemed777
Im not lost…I just find it humorous you are saying “Technology won’t save you on the day of God’s wrath.” while typing on the internet.
I have a personal relationship with God. I also am able to send my older sister and mother money evey month because of the job I have that requires a degree in technology. Which by the way is the same industry that Steve Jobs helped pioneer.
@vero
Thats very true. I believe that, but dont act like you are about to throw your tv out the window…turn off the power and stop driving to work.
You can have a relationship with god and still use technology.
@Doc HOliday. Don’t mix things up.
I never said I’m not a user of technology.. I’m on a Dell right now. I was talking about what Redeemed said.
OK?
have a nice day
@vero
I cannnnnnnnnot with Carrie’s momma this morning….
Carrie’s Momma: All the GREAT men and women of the Bible were GREAT because of their close relationship and OBEDIENCE to the WORD OF THE LORD JEHOVAH.
KDub: Was Adam great? Where it all began? Was he obedient? Is this up for debate? Cause my Bible said he was in the garden snacking on some fruit that he was advised against(The word of the Lord…as you put it).
Bye Redeemed…get off the technology then. SHEW.
@vero
My bad, I knew what you meant. I just wanted to make sure we were on the same page.
You are lost man. Technology won’t save you on the day of God’s wrath.
It won’t.

I think you are the one who runs the Jesus Twitter account personally.
Ok Doc Holiday
RIP Steve Jobs.
I think you are the one who runs the Jesus Twitter account personally.

RIP Steve
Hello All. My father killed himself in 1986. He was sick and just couldn’t take the pain anymore. Would I judge him and say he’s burning in hell forever? Only GOD will judge him as He will judge the world. God forbid, even Hitler has a chance to go to heaven, if we truly believe what the word says. I believe the only unforgiveable sin is blasphemy.
OH, RIP Steve, RIP.
“Damn I have been rocking with Macs since Oregon Trail and Word Muncher im an OG to the Steve Jobs Machine ”
Yes, THIS 100%
