I think is only those, that pay much attention to their human flesh are afraid of death.The soul enlightened ones ,only know that death is an illusion. we die to wake up. The soul never dies,it keeps on living till infinite.

The fact is those who believe in heaven don't really want to go there because they know how insanely boring it'll be. It's almost like torture. Imagine living for eternity in one place, serving a god forever with no football, movies, parties, games, music from your favourite artists, concerts, phones or social media. Your only purpose is to praise and worship a god for eternity. And I'm sure most people who believe in heaven and hell would rather prefer to die and become nonexistent than to exist in heaven forever. it's just that hell is not favourable, so they can only go with the better choice.
That's why pastors move around with body guards and armed men because they don't want to d!e. It's why they collect tithes and attain wealth because they know they won't have that experience in heaven. Good thing it doesn't exist.

When someone dies, the family & loved ones left behind often pass through lot 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 have no reason to fear death. smiley

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

We fear death because we see how quickly people move on and how quickly the dead are forgotten.

After all the noise, people have moved on from Mohbad, the accused are releasing new songs like nothing happened.

It all stems from a deep rooted instinct of fear of the unknown. Humans are very funny creatures. We are greedy and hypocritical in nature.

Even religious people pray against untimely death instead of praying to go home to their supposed heaven full of pleasure, bliss and whatnot.

Nobody wan die but dem wan go heaven .

Because we have survival instinct in us. It takes great effort to override that instinct no matter what your believe

Religious confusion, ignorance and fear are the answer.

This subject leaves the average religionist dazed from the back and forth involved. He thanks God every morning for not allowing him to die to go to heaven to be with him and also ask God to not let him die...Huh

My spiritual path teaches you that you can visit heaven even before you die. This is because these so-called heavens are not designations and destinations outside of yourself.

Everyone is literally an intricate composite of all of the heavenly worlds. "Heaven is within you".

You learn the subtle art of dying daily which everyone does naturally anyways and calls it "a dream". The next phase is to be conscious in dreams and you have visited a heaven of your choice.

Fear is a way of life more than anything. Once sin has become ur lifestyle then u must fear death. You fear ur oga at the office because of ur wage. The wages of sin is death!

Death is not the way to heaven (eternal Life); Dying in Christ is the way

Chai..


Never mind all those religious bullshitticus!!


At a time when YOU're already dead, it would seem as if YOU were never born.


...YOUR experiences and expectations, YOUR joy and sadness, the day YOU ate and did not eat, YOUR fights and furies, YOUR elegance, YOUR habits..

Will all disappear like YOU never lived!

YOU that likes causing pain to subject others, YOU will soon die too - it's not a curse, it's a fact!!



Please people, don't waste any second being a sadist!!

Life is a dream,

Life, really beyond our knowing.

Life, ephemeral they say.

And most are not as holy as those who were taken to heaven in their human form..... Even all the apostle died one way or the other..... I. Essence it's your work with God that matters.... because once there's a deep sense of fulfillment death becomes nothing because you have tasted and seen what it feels like to be with God

I just laugh when i saw video of mr ibu say make psquare call am namar if e no make "heaven". Mr ibu isn't in heaven. He's in the grave, and not existing in a different form/ shape anywhere at all, and if God deems him qualified for Resurrection, when the time comes, then its Gods decision .Y do pastors travel abroad for treatments on cost of sheeple, while they " heal" sheeple when them no dey well? Fatoyinbo run go england hospital, when sickness nearly kill am here in naija. Oga, heaven is for spirit beings, earth is for flesh. Adam and eve were created on earth, and not in heaven. When they died, everything about them became nothing or dust. Dust we are and it we will return. Death is absence of life. Forget the lies by all pastors.

All the talk of heaven, hell, God and Satan. All na wash. I’m still waiting for the Christian who will consciously eat poisoned food based on his faith. A hundred and one chicken out with stupid excuses about not testing God. If your God can’t protect you, what point is there in weekly worship?

People fear death because death is the end of it all. The end of everything for that individual.

Your heaven or hell is here on this earth.

No fucking life after death.
