I find it so mind boggling,that human beings who all are going to die someday will fear death, wheares yeshua ha mashiach aka Jesus Christ,was killed @ 31 and he was not scared of dying!,Christians shouldn't be afraid of death but we should emulate martyrs and early Christians who laughed straight in face of death!

So many want to still enjoy life before death. Or we can simply say most people on earth have phobia for death.

take a man for example who laboured very hard to get successful and you expect him to embrace death certainly not. Even the young ones fear death because they want to live so that they can become rich someday.

Unibenstudent,people don't fear death of their bodies but rather fear an end to the story of themselves....the end of their very existence and biography is what they fear...

Genuine Christians are not afraid to die. Untimely death, i.e. death that is not acceptable to God, is not good. It is suicide. Christ's death was planned. He said to us that where he was going, we could not come until He prepared accommodations ready, then He would come to take us there. So, my dear, if, by your own carelessness, you die, it is suicide and a sin. You go to hell, where Judas is the porter. But if you are untimely ripped off by any of the many wicked athiests, witches, ignorant politicians, undemocratic governments either by their actions or inactions and other adversaries, you will go straight to Heaven, where Simon Peter is the Porter. And if you respect your elders(including you mamas and your papas) and God and you live to a ripe old age of 80+, you will also go straight to Heaven. KEEP GIVING GOD WHAT HE EATS.........PRAYERS! YOU AND I HAVE JUST READ ON THIS SAME NAIRALAND THAT GOD IS THE MASTER PLANNER OF ALL LIVES AND DEATHS, ALL ACTIONS AND INACTIONS, ALL INTERACTIONS AND SNOBBISHNESS AND ALL MOVEMENTS AND STILLNESS. MAY GOD BLESS YOU WITH CORRECT UNDERSTANDING. IJN AMEN!!!

You sure Jesus wasn't scared? Remember his time in Gethsemane, how he prayed for the cup to pass? It baffles me that Jesus prayed so. Since he was mighty sure he was born for that purpose and would wake up barely 3 days later, why did he attempt to evade his very purpose?

Probably scared of what is after death more.

I think we humans are scared of how and where we are going to die not actually scared of death itself.

Is there really such a thing as untimely death?

How do we really define when someone dies 'untimely'?

hmmmm....
I have asked my mum this question before
___ she said 70+ for a righteous Christian then about 10 more years for respecting your parents. Giving us 80+.

The bible made reference to grey hairs and old age a lot, so I think it is ideal to assume one should get old before dying.

Now this is from a religious aspect. Although everybody actually wants to live old before dying,,whether religious or not.

But if for example,,a young person dies...what makes his/her death untimely??

Is it just because of the fact that he/she did not reach that old age? I thought we were also made to learn that God can call us anytime. So if a young person dies(which means he/she is called by God),,why do we still label it as 'untimely'?

Well we're scared of dying because we don't know what is out there.
So living the moment is preferable
