What if you died and found out there was heaven and hell ?
Was speaking to a friend today that comes from a pentacostal church a very religious guy. I challenge him and asked what makes you believe in god ? He replied he experienced god. Bit more discussion and so on and so came the question
"If you died tommorow, where do you think your going, heaven or hell ?"
I replied "nowhere" cause didnt really believe in a religion
His obvious reply is im going to hell.
This actually got me thinking, its all good saying
"well god hasnt helped me in my hour of need"
" I need to see it to believe it " etc
But what IF there was a heaven and hell ? Is it really that bad to just put your trust in christ and just except him ? (gonna use christ as an example)
If you think about it, its actually a win win situation.
You live your life in a christian way but when you die and theres is no heaven or hell, then at least you live your life happily, nothing to lose OR
You live your life in a christian way but when you die you find out there really is a heaven and hell but because you put your trust in christ you gonna have eternal life.
Its abit like an insurance policy. All you have to do is believe.
These are the views. At the moment Im find it very hard to believe because I cant touch of feel it, most would say you just gotta have faith but at this moment in time its not enough.
Im not shutting the idea of religion off because I'm keeping an open mind about things. Im ready to accept only if experience god, untill then i'll be a free thinker.
Saying that my friend suggested all I have to do is just ask god for a sign. All I'm saying is keep an open mind.
