Can Life Die? Impossible. Truth is our bodies dies everyday because its organic and exposed to wear (thats how GOD made it). Its keeps dieing (no matter how beautiful u look) till the day it ceases and the heart stops. The life within man never dies. It'll simply take up another form and live in another realm. I believe in Heaven. I can't proove it with logic because not everything can be prooven. Science itself is limited. They just discovered the multiverse outside the universe... these are just wonders of an unseen creator which they wont accept. But i just know there's GOD and ther's heaven(intuitive knowlegde). I know just because i know. Evry human knows thers GOD if they search deep within. there's more to reality than sensory perceptions. Mirage is a proof that your senses can fail. Man wouldnt have believed in d wind if they didnt feel it. But GOD is a Spirit and only the Spirit of man can feel him. Look within. God is REAL...and there's Life after death..Life o o! en en Chikena

Layi
Problems with Heaven Michael Martin wrote in 1997 that
"Belief in Heaven is an essential part of the great monotheistic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Famous theologians have written about it and ordinary theists hope to go there after death . . . However, the concept of Heaven is neither clear nor unproblematic. there are three serious problems with the notion of Heaven. First, the concept of Heaven lacks coherence. Second, it is doubtful that theists can reconcile the heavenly character of Heaven with standard defenses against the Argument from Evil such as the Free Will Defense. Third, Heaven is unfair and, thus, it is in conflict with the goodness of God."

I might not be a "readbookologist" but i'll answer with my noble reasoning. Firstly it becomes selfish/parochial for d same person who believes in freewill to say heaven is unfair.. its your choice remember? Secondly sayin the concept of heaven lack coherence is just merely statin your opinion and not authoritative because in any school of thot the other party lacks coherence because u see the issue from your own standpoint only..unconsciously blinded to the others point. Saying it lacks a coherence isnt a point. Tell me how.
But like i said. man isnt infallible. No man knows his own beginning so why try to know the beginning of existence. Accept your limit as human and don't think u can explain evrything. Lots of things in this world beats logic. GOD is always GOD.

i think only People that believe in God understand the fact that there is life after death because even when we are death, we still in eternal life, dead people have another life somewhere where they go after they are dead

Man just wants to be GOD..Just because GOD made him to be like HIM. The truth is that even atheist believe GOD when they meet a brickwall. Heard of the AIDs victim who used to be an atheist and when reminded that there isnt god. he shouted "AH! HE MUST EXIST O!".
Back to the topic. There is the spirit world. thats enough 2 kno that there's more to life than this physical realm. Lets keep our hearts open and play safe. Live like there's life after death. You got nothing to loose if there isnt. chikena!
Come2tinkofit..Christainity doesnt take the fun out of life. It makes life fun. "Dont commit sin" is for UR sake not 4 GOD's. anyway a topic for another thread.

If there is life after death, how would you explain what is said in these Bible portions? Ecclesiastes 9:5 and 10 and Genesis 3:19? |

Ecclesiastes 9:5 - "For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten."
Ecclesiastes 9:10 - "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do [it] with thy might; for [there is] no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest."
Genesis 3:19 - "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou [art], and unto dust shalt thou return."

i don't believe there's life after death. according to a book i read, "life after death" is a poor man's philosophy. the poor man's thinking he'll enjoy in heaven while the rich men are already enjoying their heaven on earth. a poor man can mean anything you know. anyone that's deprived or anything. in the book i read "malcolm X", poor man meant the "underrepresented minorities". i consider myself poor. " people who enjoy themself now will suffer in hell and people who suffer now will enjoy in heaven". Hell no! there ain't such thing. life's not fair.  |

Wow..I'll love to know more about this. But i believe life doesnt go out just like that. Ever seen a snake beign killed? Well, we r not snakes but I've seen a cult guy beign killed on campus before now. He was split open (throat) and yet wriggled for a while..seems he still had life or sumtin. But i still doubt that of the head because i believe if you're shot in the head...u'll just see red instantly. thats all. But whoever said that anyway? Has the person got any proof? I'll really like to know. Its worth researching into because I believe anything is possible because man is both tripartite nand triune.anything can happen. |

Oh well we were arguing about this in a forum i stumbled into. The guy started quoting some big grammars..and trying to prove to me that there's life for like 20 seconds. He had so many resources, that got me scared and i knew i couldn't stand the heat so i decided to run out of the forum. I don't know my password anymore...so i guess i can't go back there to look for the topic. Anyways, i'll try to get something about this. But if this is a true thing, i must say God must have loved the guy that got his head cut from his body. Come to think of it, if that happens to you and could still sense for some minute, I'll advice that if u've been a bad person or didn't believe in God...Just use the 20 seconds to think/say "Jesus be my saviour...i surrender". Whether or not there's heaven, u'll be on the safe side.  |

@hot-angel
I'm a medical student and can tell that ther's definitely more to life than meets the eyes. For examples:
I've seen several patients severly comatose (no heart beat) return back to life. It happens often.
The senses can also reverse functions.
The sumtotal of the electrical impulses that goes through the human body is enough to light a city. Sounds unbelievable but its true. The human is just too complex.
I'll still love to see d resources if u ever find them.

Yes if killed, the killer pick up the total sin in addition to his own. Thou shall not kill If it is a natural death then what ever you so you will reap. |

How do u ask for the forgiveness? Where's the mouth/head? Or will u just ask in your mind? Anyway methinks by d time u come to reality of what just happened, 20secs would have elapsed. |

How shall we enter or know we are dead and start the other life after this?
Near Death Experience
Medical and psychological explanations for the near death experience (NDE) have been given but they are speculative and fall short of explaining the entire phenomenon.
The temporal lobe in the brain is the area where NDE's are experienced. If one doesn't believe we have a soul, then you are stuck trying to explain why we have an area of our brain which allows us to experience an NDE. Some will say it is there from an evolutionary standpoint to ease a person through the dying process. But this cannot be so because there is no survival advantage to thinking that you are leaving your body at the point of death. Possibly it is an advantage to people witnessing the death since the dying person will not appear to be struggling, although just prior to experiencing the NDE, the person is for visible practical purposes, already dead. Still this is not a trait that could be passed on in any preferential way.
