I'm So Afraid To Die.... I'm Horified Of What May Happen! by marcopollo(m): 6:21am On Feb 07, 2016 |
✞ I'm So Afraid to Die... I Am Horrified of What May Happen! . Below is a small portion of a letter written by a lady who was horrified of the idea of death. I am sure she is not alone! ................................................................... She wrote: "I went to a nursing home recently and I saw how lonely and old they all were. That's when I thought, how can they be so calm, knowing their days are numbered?" A while ago, I asked God into my life, but I'm just not sure about what will happen when I do close my eyes forever and I'm scared because I don't know what will happen. Will it hurt? How and where will I die?" What's it like? Does it feel good? Where will I go after I die? That's what scares me the most--what will happen to me after I die?" ........................................................................... Throughout history, people have refused to accept the finality that death brings. Death brings an unacceptable, sudden interruption to one’s work, plans, and relationships, family. . Though the inscription on many tomb stones often reads "Rest in Peace," the truth of the matter is that most people do not welcome the peaceful rest of the grave. . John 11:25-26 25. Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that *believeth in me*, though he were dead, yet *shall he live*: 26. And whosoever liveth and *believeth in me* shall *never die.* . If you believe-[trust-in] in Jesus, that he shed his blood, died and rose from the grave to save you, you will live with him after physical death forever. That really takes the sting out of death. . The lady that wrote the letter stated "I asked God into my life." I know she was most sincere and also very concerned about the afterlife but this is a very important subject and I must be honest with you. . According to the Bible "asking God into your life" will NOT save you. The Bible tells us 115 times we are saved by *believing* and 35 times it says by *faith*. . Believing means to "trust-in" and not mere intellectual plausibility. . To receive salvation you must *believe* Christ died on the cross to pay your sin debt in full, was buried and rose from the tomb for your salvation. . . Please do it now so that your eternity is secure. . ➜ Please 'SHARE' for the lost on Facebook or any other social media if you agree. 1 Like |

Have u ever considered the possibility that there is no heaven or hell, and that if one dies he/she gets buried and that's the end of it. It is inevitable, just make use of every opportunity u get here to be a good person, achieve great things and live ur life |

O yes, my dear, I've considered it and I'm fully persuaded that there will be resurrection of the dead. Bros you don't have anything to lose believing that Jesus died for your sins and he was buried and God raised him up from death to gift us eternal life (1 Corinthians 15.1-4). Any other thing in addition or subtraction you hear out there is man made. His resurrection is a proof of our own resurrection. Amen. |

urheme:lol...funny submissions.... Thank you But you see I'd rather accept help from Someone who's more than willing to help me especially when I know I can't help myself anyway. I'm not too proud to receive help. Moreover, you have nothing to lose receiving this one-of-a-kind help of massive proportions like Life Everlasting! *think about it....* rather you have everything to gain trusting that Jesus died for your sins, was buried and resurrected to gift you with eternal life (1 Cor 15.1-4). Jesus Christ was made sin, who knew no sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Christ. It's a divine exchange (2 Cor 5.21). Believing for eternal doesn't cost a dime or work. Take it. Please. It's yours. God bless you! 1 Like |

marcopollo: Cost a dime or work? so what will u be willing to die for? .......i smell delusion here. Religion i know drains you of your time, energy, personal effect and senses, unless you know how to profit from it. believing in eternal life does not even make you a good person 3 Likes 2 Shares |

People worry about dying and their fantasy of what will happen afterwards that they end up having not lived at all. You have a life now that is all that matters, you either choose to live in the fantasy of getting another life or diminishing yourself by fearing the inevitable end (death) or you forget about that and live your life for the moment and savor every bit of it.. 4 Likes 3 Shares |

johnydon22: Preach it bro! These people don't know there are worse things in life than death...... Most of these religions aren't even helping matters...... They make it scarier! OP......... Life has been given to you to be lived, don't die while you're still living. You'll cross that bridge when you get there. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

urheme:[b] Many live but through many factors and fantasies they never live. An apple you are eating is not sweet because it lasts forever, No it is because that apple will finish. If you have an infinite apple fruit that never finishes no matter how much you eat from it, you are i know how that will be to you. People always diminish their ability to live by deluding themselves in the fantasy of another life at the same time being afraid of death. thought such a person should even be clamoring for death so as to get to the better life of golden mansions and 100virgin girls.. lol.. We have been dead (inexistent) long before we were born, what is there to be afraid of again? We are only sure of this life we have and i am never going to allow it to waste clamoring for an unsure one. Who ever thinks they have a life better than this one after they are dead is not really living but just waiting to die. People need to stop being afraid of death in fact shed any form of fear in their life.. "Fear" is not good for a better life.. [/b] 5 Likes 7 Shares |

Death is not to be feared by one who has lived his life diligently and in the right way. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away. |

What! People who claim to be atheists are just roaming anyhow in this thread like rats. If, God forbid, I were an atheist (that's assuming there's one), I would never comment in anything about God. Why? Why should I talk about something that does not exist? If you're truly an atheist what do you want to say about things or somebody you claim does not exist? Your comments here and there only prove you wrong. To say the truth, there are no atheist any where, people just claim to be one. 1 Like 1 Share |

Herein lies the ever-green; never-ending attraction of Religion: It claims that if we "obey" the God(s) [ with instructions ranging from Blowing yourselves up to watching pastors extort and saying nothing]; we get rewarded for believing and so are taken to paradise; while the poor fools who didn't accept our own religion burns!!!!!!!!!!! How sad. |
