Well earth is where God intended us to live, death isn’t “home”. I’m sure God sees the good in this man and he will be resurrected to live eternally on a new and paradise earth. This man is in peace now. The dead are unconscious and so cannot feel pain. “Neither work, nor reason, nor wisdom, nor knowledge, shall be in hell.” (Ecclesiastes 9:10, Douay-Rheims Version) The original words translated as “hell” in some older Bible translations (Hebrew, “Sheol”; Greek, “Hades”) basically refer to “the Grave,” that is, the common grave of mankind. The Bible shows that people in “the Grave” are in a state of nonexistence. Jesus said: “No man has ascended into heaven.” (John 3: 13) He thus showed that good people who died before him, such as Abraham, Moses, Job, and David, did not go to heaven. (Acts 2: 29, 34) Instead, they had the hope of being resurrected to life on earth. -Job 14:13- 15. God bless everyone 🙏🏻❤

This extra long episode was really special..Chris was a good man. It was a success story. I was not prepared for the ending. So sad he passed away. Tears for Chris.Thank you Knate. Play Chris' guitar well. This is a special story of selfless love.

Such a beautiful story of how to save a life. This man, Chris, reminded me of my brother, Mark. Things go downhill, problems pile up, if you move away from home and family, the bottom drops out, and you're on the streets. The men get into middle age and loved ones, parents and grandparents pass away. The family help is gone then, or they are too embarrassed to reach out, maybe something went wrong last time they reached out. This one really touched my heart. Thank you, Knate, for not giving up on him. Chris lived a good life in his youth, in a band, he then went into construction, but all of his tools were stolen, it happens a lot on the street. Chris was turning a bit discolored, so he had major internal health issues that were not being treated at all. Not sure how old he was, but my brother, Mark died at 51. He looked older, like Chris did, too. If anyone knows how old Chris was when he passed away, I am curious to know. Chris passed on to a better life. Sad that his beauty and kindness doesn't shine in this world anymore, his age of knowledge, and his wisdom are gone from the Earth. He is relieved of his suffering. His grandparents probably came to escort him to the beauty of the afterlife with love. I can assure you, he is at peace and very happy now. I hope his son can watch this and see that all is well with his father. . You inspired me to help a homeless person out yesterday. This video shows that we really don't know when our last day of life will be. Blessings to all who read this.

He was 58. Jaundice from liver failure is my guess.

I had never in my life cried like I did after watching this video. I was thinking "If I was Chris I would tell him, if you allow me, I'll be your friend for the rest of my life". And I guess in some way I kinda am. I left my country, Venezuela, on June 26th 2023, a little bit longer than a month before, and I came to Brazil with my family. When we got here we found the kindest people, they've helped us get back on our feet, because our whole lives were in 6 bags where we kept our clothes and some money I saved while working for a year before coming to Brazil. We met some wonderful people here who helped us find an apartment, and they've helped us find winter clothes, because we come from a warm country and here in the south it gets really cold for us. They also donated food, blankets and they've taken care of us as if we were their family. I'll be forever thankful to them, and I know some day I'll be able to help people too. I'm glad Chris was able to spend his last moments knowing he was loved and that he wasn't alone, but he had friends that cared for him. Thank you changing people's lives.

This story brought me to tears. You helped Chris so much, he got a job & you helped him find places to live. When you said you never saw him again, I was hoping that he had moved. The friendship you gave him was just amazing. When you told that he had died in bed my heart broke. He went to heaven a happy man for all you did for him. Sad but it just gave me a smile with the kindness you showed Chris. Fantastic!

I hope his son sees this and knows how far Chris had come, how hard he was trying. He will live on, thanks to you Knate. Some of the most overlooked and forgotten people are now unforgettable because of you. You give them, and so many of us, hope. You're an inspiration. Thank you for all you do to make the world a little better each day.

When you actually confirmed he passed away my heart shattered. I VERBALLY shouted in pain. Such a sweet soul. Knate, whatever he went through in his life, next to helping bring a child in this world and becoming a parent, meeting you was the best thing to happen to him in a while. I hope his souls is at peace and that bright smile of his is warming the skies above. God bless both of you.

He was definitely looking really pale and tired when he gave you rhe guitar. I'm glad you were able to help him get off the street and he was able to pass away with a roof over his head. Keep doing what you're doing knate!

Chris and you and your followers turned his life around. He had a roof over his head a clean warm home. Had a job and gave away a great acoustic guitar. What a wonderful guy gave a warm sleeping bag and also $5 to persons in need. Chris was banned from a hotel, not for noise or partying but for sharing a extra bed with a homeless person. He passed away as a decent man. Your good work is a real success. 🙏

Thanks for treating these homeless folks so well. You are a gift from God to those people! It isn’t much, but hopefully you can use this ten to bless someone in need! God bless you, Knate! “Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,” - Colossians‬ ‭3‬‬:‭12‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I feel like once his body relaxed out of survival mode, he felt safe enough to let go. Sometimes in traumatic situations, we’re full of adrenaline it’s about the only thing keeping us alive. And when we’re given the chance to rest in a safe place, our bodies are finally able to let go.

This made me cry. I'm struggling with my health and struggling financially and I have nightmares atleast once a week that I become homeless. That can be any one of us because so many are just one late payment away from homelessness. I'm glad there are people like you out there

Chris reminds me of my late father. He was a kind gentle soul similar to Chris but always struggled with addiction and depression, but loved making everyone around him laugh and smile. Rest in peace .

He passed away in peace, knowing that he is loved. RIP Chris.. Thank you Knate 🙏🙏🙏

. Such a shame Chris finally was getting on track and then he moved on. At least he was in a warm placer of his own and able to sleep comfortably. May he be resting peacefully.

I cried my eyes out at the end. thank you for helping this man. you really turned his life around for the better. I feel so bad he's gone. hope to see him on the other side 😢

Thank you Knate for making his last few weeks 100% better. He got to experience unconditional love and caring because of you Knate. 💜

KNATE, YOUR MEETING CHRIS AND HELPING HIM UNTIL HE WAS HOUSED WAS A TRUE BLESSING TO HIM. BECOMING HIS FRIEND AND CONTINUING TO BE THERE FOR HIM WAS THE CHERRY ON TOP. CHRIS DIED BLESSED AND AT PEACE. IT WAS MEANT FOR YOU TO SEE HIM ONE MORE TIME BEFORE HE TRANSITIONED. 😿😿😿😿😿 THANK YOU, KNATE. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗💜💜💜💜💜

“We are going to make it a little better for right now.” And you did. So incredibly sorry for your loss. I hope you find solace in how fantastic you made him feel before he left this part of his journey. You clearly became good friends and that’s the absolute most valuable gift any human can offer another. Til you meet again. You’re an angel, Knate. Truly.

That guitar was his prized possession. I got an eerie feeling watching his face when Knate said that it’s the biggest gift that anyones ever given him. I really have no idea how he passed, but maybe he did know that he was gravely ill and wanted to give his greatest possession to someone that he truly cared about. The description in the video says that Chris parties hard in his younger days, so there’s a possibility he did some irreversible damage to his body. Either way, Rest In Piece Chris. You will be missed.

Dude, this is one of the most touching videos I have ever watched, It may have only been a short period of time, but for that period of time you gave Chris his independence and dignity back.

I knew he had passed away from another video. I am in tears right now. It feels like you lost your brother and that made me sad. You don’t just help them you get personal and up close into their lives. These videos are really more documentaries of all the people you have met along the way. You are very cool dude and am so honored that you have allowed me on this journey with you thanks you!

WALK A MILE IN SOMEONE ELSE'S SHOES... many times the family CAN'T help. The person has to be ready for help. Chris finally decided to fix his life and Knate was there. THANK YOU to ALL the people that donate.

I cant stop crying 😢 At the beginning seeing the words saying this was the last time you ever saw Chris, I thought maybe he had slipped somehow and lost his job, or his housing, and was back on the street freezing. He died so happy. He was safe, warm, and hopefully had a smile on his face. You are incredible. You actually help them with the things they need most, like getting his ID sorted out. Not just splashing cash around being a big shot for clout. I have so much respect and love for you. Thank you for your big heart and your countless hours putting in the effort to truly help people. ❤

Hey you can do this, as someone who struggled with addiction for far to many years and is now just over five years sober I could have easily ended up like a lot of these people with being on the streets. I got lucky that I only ended up in the hospital and not the morgue and am grateful everyday for what that doctor did for me because I wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for him. You can do this, sober living isn't something that comes easy, but all of us addicts have it in us to live clean and be better people. I believe in you and I wish you all the best. Take care.

Levi.. I'm 45 now and started partying at 17.. I always worked to party and keep a roof over my head and I never was addicted nor did it seem like a issue. This went on until I turned 40 and realized that I had lived my entire adult life messed up on whatever was around and I had never dealt with the issues that led me to start using things to dull myself. At 42 I finally had enough and with the help of Jesus Christ my prayers were answered and I've been sober ever since. Using alcohol or drugs is going to lead to nowhere positive. I really hope you can see what's ahead on the path of using substances and can change it. Even if you need to use medication for a short period to help you adjust.

I went from popping pills to snorting H to injecting it into my veins in less 8 months. I put myself through precipitated withdrawals atleast 7 times but I finally realized I couldn't do it alone, so I asked my parents who had no idea what I was doing, for help. I never had to deal with being homeless (although technically speaking I was living with someone else's parents because I couldn't afford rent) I was at the VERY lowest I had ever been and had I not asked for help, without a single doubt I'd be dead by now. I might have only messed around with H for 6 month's but I was pill popping on and off for yrs, it depleted my entire life savings, helped me lose a 100k yr job and left me having to beg my parents for money then forced to live w my partners parents. Easily the lowest I have ever been in my life, I graduated cum laude from the University of Maryland, owned two houses in Maryland and thought I was really living the life, in less than 2 years I was broke, living w my gf's parents, unemployed, ruined my AA credit, maxed out my cards, defaulted on my payments, forced to sell one of the houses for a total loss just to free up a little bit of cash and shooting H into my veins. I finally had enough when my account was 700.00 in the red and I was holding a pistol in my hand thinking of an excuse to end it. I came clean to my father and asked for help, I went on methadone and got a job within a week, it wasn't the one I wanted but it didn't matter, it pushed me to get my ass up and also helped me pay for my partner's treatment. I went from making 100k a year to making 15hr but I wasn't on drugs yet I was surrounded by those who were, hell my old dealer went to the same clinic and was still using while actively taking methadone. I realized that for me to retain my sobriety and give myself a chance, I needed to fully change and that started with my location. I left my significant other who was sober, in treatment and who had finally taken a job where we were living originally. So I moved from Fort Lauderdale to Maryland and I focused only on work, saving my money and helping those who saved my life. After 6 months I was able to sell my other home which had been in Baltimore, I then moved to Greenville, SC where my mother was moving and all of my family lived. I got a better job, kept saving my money and bought myself my first motorcycle to help keep me focus on a hobby. I now own two motorcycles, a car and truck Instead of pumping money into someone else's pockets I saved it and then started building myself a 16x20 cabin (still building it as we speak) on my family's property. I am now almost completely off methadone, 10mgs currently with plans of being off in the next two months. In 4 months, have tickets to take an Alaskan cruise with my mother to celebrate my successes and to enjoy some much needed time away from real world problems. My point in all of this is, if you want to change, the first part starts with being honest, honest with yourself and then honest with someone who you know will HELP you get sober and make you hold yourself accountable. The moment you're honest w yourself and another human being, then you're on the right path. I was 32? When I decided to use H and I am now 38 and a completely different person. I made a ton of mistakes, pissed away everything I worked my ass off for but I'm alive, sober and am no longer hiding my skeletons or treating myself badly because i think I deserve it. You matter to your family and friends, you have an opportunity NOW to put your life back on track, you can have ANYTHING you want if you work for it and you're honest. You have already said it out loud just by typing this statement, you see EXCATLY what your future will look like if you continue down this path but unfortunately most of the time we don't have random stranger's saving us. You know what to do, you just have to do it, the hardest part is ASKING for help, then TAKING IT. But if you really want to be successful, you'll have to come clean with your family/partner/friend/whomever you have that you know will help but isn't going to enable you. You need someone who will cheer you on but also someone who is going to push yourself and hold you accountable to your choices. I wish you nothing but love and hope your realization brings you profound clarity and success. TLDR Answer is- Be honest with yourself and then someone you trust, someone who you respect and that you don't want to let down,, tell them the truth and then get your ass in treatment, no matter what happens BE HONEST. After that, My key to success is simple- Get yourself sober and then find a hobby, something you're passionate about, if you don't know what that is yet, try different things until you do, then put your restless energy and anxieties into it. You'll be glad you did.

We need an organization like this. I know veterans and many others can benefit from this.
