My name is Matthew. I try my best to serve the Lord as best I can. I also try to serve my fellow brother and sisters as best I can. Salvation is my goal for you.
advice
I've thought a lot about death lately, and have found myself very freaked out about what it would be like to not exist and that this is my only life. Dying and being nothing and not even knowing for forever scares me a lot.
Any advice or reassurance would be nice. Anything concerning Jesus will automatically get your question rated a 1 and your face ripped off.
Prepare my 1 please. Hmmm Rolling on your train of thought If you died and then you didnt exist whats there to be scared of? The second you die its blank. You wont feel anything, you wont know anything, you wont think anything, you wont be anything....You know, I used to be just like you. I thought when I die I will be nothing. Right. Well Just recently the Lord (Jesus) came into my life. (Rip my face off please...im ready to go)..Now I know that when I die I will exist. I know you will exist. However there will be a distinct difference (as of right this moment) I will continue to live after death, and you will....for lack of a better phrase...burn in hell. REMEMBER that is right this very second. If you gave your life to Jesus, you will have life everlasting. You wont have to be afraid of death. I welcome it everyday because I KNOW I will be better off, when it happens. I think it is far more scary to think that when someone dies who does not believe in God they will spend forever burning, and being seperated from God. I thank God everyday I finally listened to Him and gave my life over. When youve been in eternity for 1,000,000,000,000 years, that will only be like half of a nano second compared to how long forever is. If you need help turning over to the Lord I will help you. There are lots of people to help you. I dont mean to sound like a jerk or anything, but I am tired of people making everything sound like a wonderland, when in reality eternity could be a very very horrible thing. (I talk of christians who dont talk about hell and say life will be just perfect. They should know life is tough and Hell is very real) I dont want to see you go there. Once you believe, the evidence that shows that God does exist is overwhelming! I say once you believe, because a non believer is so shut down, they dont care to see the facts. If I can turn away from my old life anyone can. I was pretty much one step away from worshipping the devil before the Lord helped me. So dont be so shut down, give it a try. I would rather be rubbed out of existance then go to Hell. Jesus is waiting for you with open arms, so why dont you go meet with him. Get a bible, if you dont have one I will send you one, just whatever it takes for you to see the truth. This goes for anyone out there who reads this and doesnt believe....
Your salvation is as important as eternity is long....
I mention Jesus because it is the truth. If I had posted a question about how I think Jesus could be a lie and stated answers from atheists, or non-believers are not welcome, you yourself would have probably have answered.
I simply offered an answer to over come your fear of not existing. Its your duty to take it or leave it, but its my duty to offer my answer.
If you want to talk more, Id be more than welcome to have a conversation.

(Rating: 2) I skimmed through and with the numerous mentions of Jesus you received an incredibly generous 2. Why would you bother answering when I specifically said these types of answers were not welcome?
