The greatest thing that can ever happen to one is NOT to exist in life. Bcuz u will have nothing to suffer, nothing to lose, nothing to gain and nothing to enjoy.

if the heaven and hell even exist, heaven will be the greatest torture chamber that ever existed. Imagine chilling with someone whom you know is currently roasting alive your mom, wife, brother or someone else you love. That will be an even bigger torture than being roasted alive for eternity. Half of the people there in heaven will be attempting suicide daily

Wahala...

There is no wahala there . Do you know the number of people that have lived and died on this earth ? How many of them are known . I doubt there are more than 1 million or 2 million of them of the billions that have lived and still living . The chances of you or I will be known worldwide and kept in the history books of humanity is next to nothing .

Question : do you know the name and life of your great great grandfather’s father ? Do you know what his life was like ? But you carry his genes and that of his wife . It is the same way that your great great great grand children will care less about who you were or how you lived . They will only carry part of your genes .

PS : That is why paternal fraud should carry a hefty penalty close to death !

What I'll say is,
If you're a Muslim, read the book of the Christians and Jews, if you're a Christian or jew, read the Muslim book.
If you don't have a religion or you're a traditionalist, read through the above books.

Read with open mind, try to make sense out of them, reflect and also you need to be convinced that there's a creator that deserved to be worshipped cos we can't just be on earth to achieve our selfish interest alone without a purpose attributed to a creator.

Pray to the creator for a sign or for him to guide you to the right path.

By now, you must have chose a book to go with based on the obvious realities and signs that are obvious.

By the grace of God, you'll be guided because there's surely a purpose for which we're created.
grin Wot do u think is the purpose humans make machines and robots? It’s to have slave labor from machines. Man is the A.I invention of the Annunakis according to the Sumarian texts

You are wrong. Man must search for His creator and after finding His creator, Man must submit wholly to the will of His creator


Man must then I tune with his own Spirit become regenerated by the Spirit of God so He becomes acceptable to God. Failure to do this, such a being will be thrown into eternal unquenchable fire after death

How u live it is ur concern. JUST LIVE AND DIE AFTER A TIME

Its a 2 side of a coin
The essence of life is to be reconnected with your manufacturer at the end of your journey. It is the most beautiful thing that can happen to a man. The scriptures said; Eyes have not seen, ears have not heard, neither has it entered the heart of men what God have prepared for them that makes it.

Bro, the essence of your life on earth will be decoded to you by the time you vacant this earth either in rapture or in death. It is a highly stupid and unthinkable thing for any one to say that the essence of life is to live and die. That's demonic doctrine from the pit of hell. Have you not read, or have you not heard that he that is born of the spirit can not die?

One most important thing you must ensure to do before exiting the earth is to fulfill destiny, else to are beside yourself.

GET JESUS NOW!

Another word for "ESSENCE" is "PURPOSE."

Why does a person/farmer plant crops? He has an expectation of HARVEST in the future (months or years) depending on the crop.

Last year September, I bought some chicks to rear with the goal of gifting and eating them in December. I did just that when the time came.

Man is neither a plant nor an animal. A lot is invested in a human being right from conception. To what end you have asked? The day a child is born marks his journey back to his Maker - a life after earthly existence.

Thus, the essence or purpose of life is to live it in the consciousness of eternity (harvest). This consciousness for a Christian is captured by our Lord Jesus Christ when He said... Believers are the SALT of the EARTH and the LIGHT of the WORLD. Jesus further instructed, " Let your light so shine that men will see your good works and glorify your Father who is in Heaven.

The essence of life is to Love the Lord your God with all your strength, heart, mind, & might. And to love your neighbour as yourself.

Do not listen to him. He is trying to mislead you into hell. That is not the purpose of life. There is another life that is forever and ever and ever after death. We must live a purposeful life so that we do not fall to the left path after death and we go on to live forever and ever and ever. The purpose of life is much but to become the visible expression of the invincible God is the first purpose of life. The next one is for us to learn about God, His ways and His deeds and to become vessels worthy of God's divine kingdom

Oh dear lord forgive this fellow for he has blasphemed immeasurably. This is an antichrist doctrine from hell. Life is destiny, and destiny is life. Make sure I fulfill destiny in life that's the essence of life. But I guarantee you that you can not fulfill your God given destiny without JESUS. Brothers and sisters;

What Abt what d Bible say Abt life after death
as a seasoned biologist there is no such thing as life after death... Whatever happens to your spirit life nobody knows plus what body are going to have in the after life... As a normal human being you are suppose to experience sensitivity, and your soul actually interprets it, where does your spirit go. We don't know... Leave your pastors to be lying to you about after life... We are all here to learn on earth... It's a teacher that never leave na we students dey graduate till death... I have had near death experience and I can say there is nothing like after life...

The purpose of life is to make life better for the next generation.

If you are not doing that, then you are as good as a waste of human space.

bullshit only the gullible believes in after life... What will I be doing in heaven after death... What to live for infinity is a curse... Why would you want to live forever... The cacausians that brought religion knew you people are greedy and will do anything to live forever... So they brought purity in exchange for eternal life... Why would I want that to live forever... My essence in life I don't know... If we focus on creating a better world for our unborn children our ancestors will appreciate but we are doing otherwise... I don't want heaven or hell... Let me die and return to my void state. Look at kids of today and tell me are you happy with their situation... If you are only concerned about your self that is plain evil

life is fuvkin unfair,gosh!I think life is not that bad,it's God that's somehow unfair.
God should have ended suffering right from the onset by destroying the Lucifer who later became Satan but he didn't.He should have at least strip him off all of his powers but he chose not To.
We have more than 9 planets,yet he chose to send down devil on the 3rd planet knowing very well that we humans he created are inhabitants of the 3rd planet.
Now,at least he should have made everyone healthy so that people won't have enough excuse not worship him.
Instead,we have the blind,the deaf,the cripple,and all manner sicknesses that follows people from the birth.
How would you judge a the blind if he doesn't accept Christ as his saviour.God sometimes to me is an imaginary being,sorry to say
wow boss, you spoke my mind, I was thinking about this last week, why is God being democratic with Satan?
