Do u know anybody that is not afraid of death shocked

🙋🏿‍♂️ I'm not anymore.

I guess I'm kind of half dead at the moment.

I have prayed in my heart's of heart for death but I guess I'm not good enough to die just yet.

I have lived and nothing is worth living for.

Just waiting to get passed my fear of pain and I will do it eventually.

Why does most people fear death; yet the way to heaven?

Nobody wants to die and yet we all want to make heaven.....

I guess it's because most of us don't have a preview of how glorious heaven is.

Some people who died and had a preview of heaven didn't want to return to this earth again. Some were forced back to return to warn others from sinning against God in order not to miss heaven.

But then nobody should die until they have completely fulfilled their destinies on earth.

When someone dies, the family left behind passes through plenty of stress. That's the major reason most people fear death.

The other reason is the death process which may be painful.

Remove these 2 factors, & most people will happily die. smiley

which stress,family that will forget you in the space of 1yrs..

You can start your heaven journey now since you are desperate about it and not afraid of death, let the people that want to live enjoy their life.
Re: Why Do Most People Fear Death, Yet It's The Way To Heaven? by Kenneth4u205(m): 3:03pm On Mar 17
Mr proof. What proof do you have that people go to heaven when they die ?. You are just an ignorant nairalander. I've been in the occult world before becoming a Christian. Those in the occult world visit their demonic kingdom daily through astra projection and travel. Even witches travel each night. You don't need to die before you can visit your kingdom. I know your little mind can not comprehend that we are dual in nature.we exist here on earth and heaven at the same time

Steep:
Death is not the way to heaven, it is Jesus Christ.
Death is an enemy, death came as a result of sin, and Jesus has defeated death by his death and resurrection so that anyone who believe would have everlasting life. Though when they die in the flesh but in spirit they would be with him and and at his coming he would raise them back to life.
So if somebody want to chook you knife for chest you won't mind abi?

Omooba77:
Why does most people fear death; yet the way to heaven?

I have since realised that two persons can use the same words but yet mean very different things.

What do you mean by 'fear' death?
If you mean do Christians, like other men, have fear of what lies beyond death? No genuinely born again believer is afraid of what lies beyond the grave. There is therefore no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit Romans 8:1

If alternatively by fear of death you are thinking why don't Christians jump in the path of oncoming vehicles, the answers are even more straightforward. I will mention just two out of so many.

1. Do you realize that suicide is one of the most grievous sins anyone can commit against God? The God that commanded you not to kill your neighbour would not spare you if you took your own life. No heaven for the fearful and abominable. Whether you realize it or not, suicide is the most despicable form of cowardice.
2.. The uniform teaching of the Bible is that heaven is not just a place where we will float about in bliss. Heaven is a place of judgement for believers' works 1Corinthians 3:14-15. Our works will be evaluated and rewarded. Indeed some believers will suffer loss. By reason of being in Christ, these believers themselves will be saved but any work that does not stand the scrutiny of God's fire will be lost. Even in heaven, saints are not equal. I have a good secular job that pays my bills but I also pastor a church where I don't draw a penny as salary. Yet, my greatest fulfilment comes from watching people under my watch learn from God, grow in grace and have their lives transformed by God's power. You might find this impossible to believe but, if I have to choose between my secular job and pastoring, I will choose the latter. To live is Christ, to die is gain Philippians 1:21. If it's only in this life that we have hope, then of all men we are the most miserable 1Corinthians 15:19

oluwaseyi0:

Because they never believe in that heaven in the first place

They believe in US/UK/Canada hence they will fume if you tell them you are granting them a US visa but they should only come when they are 90+ of age

If you grant an average Nigerian Christian or Muslim visa to a better country today with grantee of good job, HMO, great health package, good and rent-free house and any/everything they dream of then ask them when they want to come they will tell you this month or latest next month

Why is this same urgency not applicable to heaven? Why go later why you can start enjoying now, why wait till your eyes are blurry, skin wrinkle, teeth almost falling off, six-pack gone, beauty faded and all the terrible experiences of staying alive happens to you



So in one statement, what do you mean?
And by the way, are you a freethinker?
