Hi all, here is a two part question:

Do you believe in Heaven?
and,
Do you expect to go to Heaven, when finished here on Earth?

Optionally, please feel free to discuss why you believe and what you think it will be like, i.e. Will your favorite pets and friends be there and easy to find? How will you find them, will we have "Apps" for that?  Smiley

Please maintain a nice talk, and do not have the same two or three people debating religion, thank you.  
Yes I believe in heaven. All the people in the world will enter heaven or hell in the afterlife according to their good and bad deeds. See I you come to earth for a very short time, within a short time a different bond is formed between family, friends, relatives. However, every living being is mortal, life has an end as it has a beginning. Especially those who are believers among mankind, regardless of their religion, people of all religions firmly believe in life after death. And since the hereafter is a matter whose good and bad depends on how much good and bad deeds one has done in this world. Therefore, if a person wants to be freed in the afterlife and want to go to heaven, then he must follow all the rules of the creator and pass the life of this world. Otherwise it is not possible to go to heaven. For those who disbelieve, there is a severe punishment and for those who believe, there is the blessing of heaven.

I definitely believe in heaven. People come to earth for a short period of time, after staying for a short period of time a person has to leave for the other world. How many things people find in the world for this short period of time. There is no man who does not want heaven, every man wants heaven and to live happily and peacefully in the next life, he has to do some deeds in this world. Those who can do good deeds in this world and be friendly to people and follow religious rules will have a good life in the next life and will go to heaven.

The term " heaven " means so many different things to people.
No, nobody goes anywhere when finish here on Earth. However, the scripture reveal that God's people will be resurrected at the return of Jesus Christ and  will reign with Him on the Earth. However, everyone expectation on going to heaven or not depends on individual. It's also depends on individual attitude either good or bad. Above all, only God knows each and everyone of us that is to go to heaven.

None of us know what awaits us after death.  And what heaven will be like.  It's just a beautiful fantasy. 
//

Heaven's probably more than just something people imagined up.  A lot of folks think it's this perfectly peaceful place overflowing with love where souls connect in ways beyond what any of us can conceive of here on Earth.  Sure the details are a mystery, but that idea you shared about good people finding true happiness in the afterlife lines up with what a bunch of religions preach.  Who really knows for certain, but there's definitely some comfort in hoping our spirits end up somewhere nice like heaven when this life eventually ends.  The great unknown can be frightening, no doubt but keeping the faith that something even better awaits might make it easier to cope with.

None of us know what awaits us after death.  And what heaven will be like.  It's just a beautiful fantasy.  Maybe heaven will be for good people.  Those who did good deeds on earth and were good people may go to heaven.  And enjoy all the happiness of heaven.  Imagination says heaven will be a very peaceful place.  Where there will be no hatred, violence, fights.  Although I said all these from my imagination.  How can we speak of heaven where we do not know what will happen to us tomorrow or what the future holds for us.  But I can hope that if I am a good person, I will go to heaven and enjoy the happiness of heaven.

I found the first two posts to both be thought provoking, thank you. I was raised very religious with church & church school every Sunday. In my teens, I found Ayn Rand's book Atlas Shrugged to be an amazing experience. Over the years, I've come to respect Rand's politics and in depth understanding of people and history more than her hostility towards religion. The idea of going somewhere wonderful after death has a strong appeal, especially as we get older, but I can't put too much faith in the concept, yet.    

It appears that you do not fully believe in what you practise. What baffles me the most is your outrage over the responses to your post; what did you expect to see here? When you have a large number of people in the forum with diverse beliefs, you will surely see the most provoking answers contrary to your belief, as well as some that agree with your belief. Not everyone believes in religion, and those who do will only answer questions based on what their religion teaches them and what they believe in. So don't be offended if you see another response that is completely off point from what you expect to hear from forum users here.

Even though we all don't know how heaven looks like, we don't want to go to hell because we believe we don't deserve it.
The hell is real and if we don't do the right thing now, we might see ourselves in there.  People has been searching for money these days forgetting that heaven is real but we can still adjust and do the right thing than taking wealth and riches if life mire important than our lives. We just have to keep doing the right thing so that heaven can accept us at last.

It's pretty much the same question phrased in two different ways. The answer to both of them is no, at least in my case.
I don't believe in the concept of heaven an d the way I see it we turn into energy after death and that energy becomes a part of the universe, the way an exploding star disappears, but it's energy does not disappear, but travels and changes the cosmos.

Arguing this for me most time seem not necessary because as long as your entitled to your believe, to ask if one will go or not I don't deem it necessary. I stand to be corrected.

But answering this question for me I believe I will go heaven human are spiritual beings, we create what we want through our mouth I have come to understand that many things exist because it was created bitcoin forum is not as origin of man but created by human, so is life we live today, I wouldn't say much as everyone is entitled to it's believe.

Heaven is simply God's home kingdom.

Imagine anything you want about God. He is way greater than our imagination. He is way greater and different than any other 'alien' we think about. In fact, the only reason why we think of Hm like a person is that He came in the form of Jesus, a man, to save us by taking the punishment for our mistakes and disobedience against God, our King.

Since it was God's idea that we go to Heaven, He has made it super easy. Simply believing that He exists, and exists in the form of Jesus, and that He is the One Who is saving us through Jesus... this is what takes us to Heaven. But our faith is weakened when we make mistakes, especially voluntary mistakes.

Perfection, no-death, joy, everything beneficial beyond our imagining... this is what there is for us in Heaven. And faith in Jesus is built by reading, or listening to somebody reading, the Bible... especially the Gospel books - first four in the New Testament.

Going to heaven or hell fire depends on the believe of every individual, if the person is religious and what they're religious believes are, if a person is not religious, then the concept of going to heaven after death might not appeal to them. As a Christian I believe in afterlife and that righteous people will go there when they die, they might not reunite with their family and friends who died and did not make it to heaven, so for us it's a personal race. Most religions are centered on believes and not facts, so we should be more focused on this present reality in this world to make positive impact by being an example of what we want our world to be.

Certain individuals view Heaven as a place of eternal rest and calm, while others envision it as a place of happy reunions with loved ones. There are also numerous religious beliefs on what Heaven is like. I find it fascinating how various individuals envisage the afterlife based on their beliefs and experiences. And I believe it's intriguing to investigate the many ways individuals think about what occurs after death. So everyone brings their own unique viewpoint to the table on paradise, but as for me, I will go to heaven, which is why I am walking on the bright side of life.

A: Nah, i don't need afterlife. This life is enough for me. Thought of that gives me peace and clarity and understanding that i need to cherish everything i have while i have it. I need to live my life to the end because i have it. While being kind to my family and friends and give my kids a better changes in life than i did.

I used to be religious, but after i understood what void it was filling, getting rid of it really balanced my life to better. I just don't need anyone in the sky watching me. Neither gods or government.

B: What will happen after i die? My body either get burned or buried. I guess my afterlife would feel similar to before i existed. Like nothing.

And you think you've said something right! Let me tell you I do not know your religion but whatever happens afterlife is like a reflection of your life on Earth, so know If you live a life without Good or Allah, so your soul will be without them too after life you most believe in any in your life okay

Proper religion absolutely has proof. Proper science doesn't have proof that can't be changed when necessary. For example...

One, tiny, simple proof for the Bible is the city or Jericho. In the Bible OT it says that the people of Israel marched around ancient Jericho for seven days. Then, on the seventh day, they shouted... and the walls of Jericho fell over flat.

For hundreds of years the city of Jericho was lost to us. Scientists and archaeologists thought that it was a fabrication. Then they found it, with the walls fallen flat, just like the OT says.

The Bible, the most published book, is impossible to exist. Without study into the Bible and how it came about, a person wouldn't understand that it is impossible.

There are parts and scraps from something like 25,000 ancient copies of the New Testament from the first couple hundred years of its existence. The only way people would have made this many copies was if it had happened, and the people were healed like Jesus said. Their healing made them excited enough that they would publish accurate copies at a time when the only way was to copy them by hand.

The science of the late 1800s, when scientists expressed that there was nothing left to discover, shows us that scientific proof isn't being followed. Scientific proof only exists in reality when the science can be demonstrated by engineered results that match the science.

There are many more examples of proof for and against religions and science. The point that comes out of this is that 'science', as the term generally means today, has a meaning similar to the meaning of 'religion'. Sometimes it is difficult to tell which parts of science are not religion, and what parts of religion are not science.

Cool

Don't get me started on the Bible. The most vile book ever written. Why would need "proof for the Bible"? Proof of what?
That it was written by 45+ authors over the course of 2500 years, only to have its 'books/stories' cherry-picked at
the First Council of Nicea in 325 CE. The nastiest book ever written.


https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13910414


The Bible has really only ONE purpose. That purpose is to express Jesus-salvation so that people can be saved.

The Council of Nicea didn't cherry-pick the books of the Bible. They simply eliminated the books that weakened or broke the thread of Jesus-salvation. In other words, they purified the Bible as it should have been pure in the first place.

The only real author of the Bible is God. Prophets were the instruments God used to do the writing. Consider...

When God made people, He made them in His image. How does one animate simple material so that it becomes in the real image of the one true God? We can't begin to fathom how this can be done, or what God is really like. But it is God's Spirit in you, that is activating the substance of what you call your spirit and body, to do and think the things that you think you are doing alone.

How much more the prophets who were on God's side and in favor of Him. The Bible is ONE, even though it was written over a bunch of centuries by different authors.


My special point for you is, we are all of the image of God, and the strength of God is working in us... though most of us don't seem to realize it, and though we don't feel like it. For your own sake and life, don't use your God-power to deny yourself out of existence. God doesn't die. Denying yourself simply means that you will no longer be in the presence of Father-God, and Brother-Jesus. If you have dreary periods in life now, think of what it will be like without Him for eternity.

I mean, in reality that's what we hope for, right? We hope (at least I know most of us do) that there is something or anything beyond the life we are currently living. To believe that there is something more after death somehow gives us the comfort of knowing that the end is not actually the end of everything, that there is still something waiting for us in the "afterlife". Moreover, having the thought that it will be good and peaceful allows a better sense of relief for us, like the promise of having a place of peacefulness and eternal happiness in heaven.

However, do I expect myself to go to Heaven when I'm done with my life here on Earth? Ideally, yes of course I do. Do I deserve it? Probably, but I know there are still those who deserve it more than I do. I guess instead of using the term expectation I'll use hope or even wish. It's hard state an expectation especially when you're not 100% sure that such a thing exist in the first place after all.

For me, as a Muslim, I believe in heaven, but I believe in it in a mystical, spiritual sense, and not in a materialistic sense, as ordinary Muslims or even Christians and Jews understand it.

In short, the real paradise is knowledge, the purity of the soul, its sublimeness, and its purification from all its negative qualities.

Science hides a lot of what they find. For example, they have found through the Voyager satellites that they almost don't have a clue as to what the universe is made of. But those who publish what the scientists say about Voyager discoveries, publish those ideas as though they were fact, even though the scientists clearly express them only as ideas.

Consider the Microsphere Nanoscope... a microscope that can see living things in color that were only formerly visible, dead, in an electron microscope. Yet few people talk about the MN, because what it sees is changing the whole understanding of how life works. And no scientist wants his pet ideas to be trampled on, even by the truth.

Part of the reason science is not finding the truth is, they fail to scientifically appropriately explore the foundations of the Bible, God, and the reason for Jesus... Jesus, Who was made to be equal with God, by God Himself.
...

This perfectly proves how people read things they do not have a clue about, they think they got it and get inevitably to the wrong conclusions. Science follows a method that provides some certainties under a certain context of the human understanding, nothing more.

Religion is based on pure dogma. Nothing is proven ever, it is simply said and people are just expected to believe it. As you can see, the "truth" bar is set to a zero level for religion, yet we still the same people who do not question that which is without proof, questioning science which actually does require proof for the conclusions.

That's a good question. Is our bacteria part of our psyche if it keeps us alive?

PS. What constitutes a 'soul'? What is its chemical composition?
Imho that's just our level of self awareness we are calling as a soul or a psyche. Something we have developed over time and i see it as completely physical feature coming from the complexity of our bodies. There's really no evidence for us to assume that it would be anything else, like "spiritual" or "Magical", what ever they might mean to anyone.

1. No. There is no such thing. We know because we went to space to check.

2. When you die, your body decomposes and atoms in your body become part of something else. 'You' don't
'go' anywhere.

A better question is: "What constitutes me/you?"

Is your body, your brain, 'you'?

If you believe that your 'soul' goes to heaven, then your body/brain is not 'you'.
If you follow this logic, 'you' don't exist. At least nobody was able to detect 'you'.

If on the other hand, you consider your body/brain to be 'you', then 'you' definitely don't go anywhere after you die.

^^^ If the Good Book is not the Bible, or if it does not express Jesus death and resurrection for salvation, it is not the Good Book. Jesus is the only way to Heaven. Believing Jesus will almost automatically cause one to want to live a better life here on earth.

Cool
Jesus the only way and the truth and light, which means that Jesus Christ leads us as Christians to heaven which means we going to be with God the fathers, so for the accusation that Jesus Christ is referred to as the light of God means that believing in him will light our part to heaven from this life and the holy Bible is like heaven constitution and life blueprints that following all the instruction therein would earn the believer heaved as the rewards of that covenant which is written in the Bible

You miss a couple more questions, from the opposite direction. These questions are:
1. Does the universe exit?
2. Does life exist?
The reason why these are important is, nobody can prove them with solid, empirical science.

Big Bang is a fantasy that sounds good to those who need it to believe in. But the science behind BB is so extremely lacking that it is really utter foolishness. Besides, asking any layman to understand the little science there is, makes the whole topic of this question in a public forum to be foolishness.

As far as life goes, the dividing line between something that is dead, and the moment before while it was still alive, hasn't been found. If it is close to being found, it is understood (almost) by a few technical people, but absolutely none of us lay people.

The point of asking these two additional questions is, before we ask about some fanciful place called Heaven, we really need to be afraid, because we don't really know anything about this age.

But take heart. Since this universe and life seem to exist without proof, and without the knowledge of how such could be possible, something like Heaven could exist for the same, unknown reasons.

Cool
While it's true that the nature of the universe and the origins of life are complex topics, science continues to explore and uncover new insights. The existence of the universe is supported by a wide range of empirical evidence, from cosmic background radiation to the expansion of space. Regarding life, while the exact line between life and non-life is not yet fully understood, scientists have made significant progress in studying the origins of life through various disciplines such as chemistry, biology, and astrobiology.
The evidence is not empirical because nobody has 'been there' to find all the things that cause the evidence to exist as it does. What is empirical is that certain interpretations have been placed on the evidence to show universal unity in a direction that the 'directors' of the interpretations desire.

Scientific progress is beautiful and wonderful to look at. The scientific failures that led to the progress are rather ugly. Back in the late 1800s, scientists declared that everything worth knowing had been scientifically discovered already. Now we see how far off they were in their interpretations.



Rather than fearing the unknown, we can embrace the wonders of the universe and the potential for discoveries yet to come. Science has a remarkable track record of unraveling mysteries and expanding our knowledge. While we may not have all the answers at present, ongoing research and advancements in technology offer promising avenues for exploring the origins of the universe and the complexity of life.
Fearing the unknown is something that many modern scientists should be doing. Why? Because they have ignored the foundation of all knowledge. Saint Paul shows this when he talks about Jesus:

---   Ephesians 4:10: "He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe," - https://biblehub.com/ephesians/4-10.htm.

---   Colossians 2:3: "... in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge," - https://www.biblehub.com/colossians/2-3.htm,

Yet most scientists ignore the source, Jesus, and try to muddle their way through discovery without Him, the only real foundation.



The human thirst for understanding and the quest to explore the unknown have led to remarkable breakthroughs throughout history. It is through scientific inquiry and rigorous investigation that we inch closer to unraveling the mysteries of existence. So, while we may not have definitive answers yet, the pursuit of knowledge and the wonder it brings can lead us to new insights, including the possibility of realms such as Heaven, which may have their own uncharted explanations waiting to be discovered

Science hides a lot of what they find. For example, they have found through the Voyager satellites that they almost don't have a clue as to what the universe is made of. But those who publish what the scientists say about Voyager discoveries, publish those ideas as though they were fact, even though the scientists clearly express them only as ideas.

Consider the Microsphere Nanoscope... a microscope that can see living things in color that were only formerly visible, dead, in an electron microscope. Yet few people talk about the MN, because what it sees is changing the whole understanding of how life works. And no scientist wants his pet ideas to be trampled on, even by the truth.

Part of the reason science is not finding the truth is, they fail to scientifically appropriately explore the foundations of the Bible, God, and the reason for Jesus... Jesus, Who was made to be equal with God, by God Himself.

It's not that God is trying to hide the knowledge of what He does - the making of all of creation. Rather, it's that science is trying to find it out without the correct and proper direction for such finding. Amos 3:7: "Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets," - https://biblehub.com/amos/3-7.htm. Could it be that the whole creation - God's created universe - is revealed through what He told His servants the prophets? That is something worth scientific investigation!

Time for us to really start getting the correct basis for all scientific study... God's Word first, and then understanding how scientific discoveries match God's Word.

I have no expectations about afterlife, mainly because I have no evidence of any short of afterlife whereas I have plenty of evidence of people not being able to "communicate" after death. Also, most of the organised religions and faith books do not really make any sense beyond requesting fait.

Having said that, there are many things that we do not know about life and nothing we really know about anything after, so I guess anything is possible technically.

Hi all, here is a two part question:

Do you believe in Heaven?
and,
Do you expect to go to Heaven, when finished here on Earth?

I do not know how all these lies theories came into existence. There are so many different believes and all these believes are attached to religion.

I believe there is no where in the atmosphere or benight the earth called heaven where one being called God is seated on a throne watching what is happening in the world. If there be Heaven it should be the presence of a supreme being called God. Then who is God?
Maybe Jesus was God, Mechisedec was God, Olumba is God and then wherever these being are is automatically called Heaven. This is my personal understanding and it is debatable.

Come on. Fess up. You only talk like that because you want to make everybody think that you are God, right?

Let's put an end to this conversation. YOU ARE GOING TO HELL! YOU ARE ALL GOING TO HELL! You are all going to suffer immensely for all eternity because you are all terrible people. You do not deserve life. You do not deserve love. You hate me because you are evil! You are an absolutely horrible person. You are a Nazi. YOU ARE ALL GOING TO HELL!

Hi all, here is a two part question:

Do you believe in Heaven?
and,
Do you expect to go to Heaven, when finished here on Earth?

I do not know how all these lies theories came into existence. There are so many different believes and all these believes are attached to religion.

I believe there is no where in the atmosphere or benight the earth called heaven where one being called God is seated on a throne watching what is happening in the world. If there be Heaven it should be the presence of a supreme being called God. Then who is God?
Maybe Jesus was God, Mechisedec was God, Olumba is God and then wherever these being are is automatically called Heaven. This is my personal understanding and it is debatable.

^^^ If the Good Book is not the Bible, or if it does not express Jesus death and resurrection for salvation, it is not the Good Book. Jesus is the only way to Heaven. Believing Jesus will almost automatically cause one to want to live a better life here on earth.

Cool

I am a Christian and believe that Jesus is the way to Heaven. But I don't really believe that only Christians will go to heaven.
It's easy for anyone to say that they are a Christian. But a real Christian is one who believes in salvation by Jesus, the Christ (Messiah).


I believe that everyone that loves his neighbor and doesn't do things that harm them might make it to heaven. We have to show love, mercy, and liberality.
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me," - https://biblehub.com/john/14-6.htm. So far nobody has been able to show what doing good has to do with being saved.


Your religious belief greatly depends on your location. I am a Christian today because my parents practice the religion and most people in my location are Christians.
No, this is not why you are a Christian. The reason why you are a Christian is that through your parents, you heard the Word of God spoken, or you read it. Then the Holy Spirit worked faith in your heart through the Word that you heard.


If maybe I was born in Saudi Arabia, I would have been a Muslim. Nothing would have stopped me from becoming a Hindu if I was born in India. The main issue is to be good to humanity. If you assume that only Christians would go to heaven, then God can make it easy by stopping giving babies to Muslims and other religions.
It is the hearing of the Word of God - especially the parts that talk about Jesus-salvation - that works faith in the heart. People of nations or religions that don't have the Bible possibly will never hear the Word of God.


And make more Christian families have more children that will go to heaven instead of sending children in families that will lead them to hell. I don't believe that only Christians will go to heaven.

King David talks about how he was put together by God in his mommy's tummy: "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb," - Psalm 139:13. What this means is that God is putting people together before they are born. So, we all heard the Word of God from the beginning of our conception. But if we don't have reinforcement by the Bible once we get out here, we forget.

The point is, everybody who believes in Jesus-salvation is saved, no matter how he gets that faith. But we can see how difficult it is for people born to practicing Christians to be saved. So, we can easily understand how hard it will be for people who don't have even the Word, to be saved.

However, if they get the Word in some way that we don't know about, they will be saved, if they believe. Yet, who has a clear example of how a person can get the Word without getting the Bible, or without somebody speaking it to him? Because that is what the Holy Spirit uses to work faith in the hearts of people.

Do you believe in Heaven?
Yes. But I respect those that don't believe on it so, hopefully they'll also respect my belief on it.

Do you expect to go to Heaven, when finished here on Earth?
Yes, I'm expecting to be in there and it's not just when you pass away here on Earth you'll get there surely. This is where the belief of each religion comes and I don't wanna expound on it because it's gonna be a long debate. So, I'm all good if someone believes in heaven or not but not with long arguments.

Optionally, please feel free to discuss why you believe and what you think it will be like, i.e. Will your favorite pets and friends be there and easy to find?
It's paradise, where you don't have to be problematic about daily living and there's no more sickness in there. As for the pets, I don't think that we'll see them there because from what I know, they've got no soul. And with our friends, possible.

How will you find them, will we have "Apps" for that?  Smiley
We'll just gonna know that soon.

Do you believe in Heaven?
Of course mate. Christians are believers of God and we have heard of so many miracles that was performed in the past by Jesus Christ to make people believe that there is life after death and that we are visitors on earth because we have a father that is in heaven who will demand for our soul when the time comes.

Do you expect to go to Heaven, when finished here on Earth?
My big dream on earth is to go to heaven when I die because it is only in heaven that we can have eternal peace and rest glorifying the lord and worshipping God.

Hi all, here is a two part question:

Do you believe in Heaven?
and,
Do you expect to go to Heaven, when finished here on Earth?

A) Yes I believe in heaven because as a follower of Christ( Christian) the bible made us to understand that there is heaven and there is hell. Every follower of Jesus Christ must believe there is heaven because the end point of every believer is to make heaven after spending time on earth here because heaven according to the bible is a paradise.

B) Heaven is my goal after living a good life on earth and I am hoping to make heaven by the grace of almight God because my works alone can't take me their neither will my deeds take me but his grace and mercy will take me to a place where there is no hard labour before eating, heaven is my ending point after life and I will definitely be there some day.

Nice question,I think though that asking for heaven and not wanting religious responses is like saying I am a very nice guy but I also like whores  Grin.

So yes I expect to go to heaven hopefully as what is the point of us coming here on earth and why are the skies created,I doubt they are for nothing,they are for a purpose,everything is created for a purpose and while this purpose may be different if no after life exists then well done to Hitler who killed millions and also Putin who is doing the same now,I think he is already in hellfire Hitler and Putin will follow soon.

I have always been fascinated by the topic of after life and science has proven that the human brain still functions for 30 minutes after our death and this is a miracle,they have not manage to find out what happens during these thirty minutes which make it even more mysterious.You know what is even strange,the fact that our two organs,like our genitals and our stomach which we try to pleasure as much as we can during our life,are the first organs to dissolve.

Heaven actually exist. I'm one of the hardest person to convince of something without proof.

My goal is to do what it requires to get there... to please the CREATOR always.

*I believe water exist because I saw it.*
 No human can describe heaven even if seen. It has a Great Sparkle that can't be described because it has never been seen nor imagined by humans. The sparkle is healing when stared at....you immediately feel healing & painless crackling in your bones/body as if being pressed together by a powerful force.


We could have our evil pets, friends, brothers and sisters destroyed in hell while we meet their replica in heaven. The evil ones are not who we think they are. Once they become completely evil they become satan.

I don't plan to die anytime soon. And as there's no recorded reviews from any dead, I have no expectations for afterlife.

God isn't complaining that you don't believe Him. In fact, He wants you to decide... make your own free choice. He probably won't even feel sorry that you roast in Hell. After all, it's for freedom that He has set you free... to even select Hell, if that's what you want.

He's quite a nice Guy, isn't He.

I find it absurd that people really expect to go to heaven despite God's grace. Do Christians ever apologize when they do wrong? No. They do not. This is because they do not believe in repentance because Christians are just as hateful and angry as everyone else. I have an idea. Why don't all the fake believers just stop calling themselves Christians? And why don't people stop fooling themselves into believing that these fake believers have really repented of their sins. Christians tend to be the most angry and immoral of all people, so they will be the first in the line to HELL.

P.S. I am still the only entity who is publicly stating that all bio-safety level (BSL) 4 labs need to publicly post cryptographic timestamps of all of their data. It seems like everyone else is more concerned with how they can do as many hateful evil deeds as possible than about making sure that BSL-4 labs are truly secure. After all, none of you chlurmcks care about your own health. You only care about making sure that everyone around you is as f***ing miserable as you are because you are SCUM! So you will all go to Hell a lot sooner because you will get sick as a result of your refusal to take the necessary safety precautions to prevent pandemics.

If you disagree with what I have to say, then you should try being better people so that you by the grace of God would avoid HELL.

I agree that the dividing line between good works salvation and faith salvation can be difficult to understand. Look at the parable of the sheep and the goats - Matthew 25:31-46 - https://www.biblehub.com/niv/matthew/25.htm.

In this parable, it seems that the King is judging people on the merits of what they have done. It seems contradictory to passages like the one where Jesus says, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent," John 6:29 - https://biblehub.com/john/6-29.htm. So, how do we reconcile these two ideas? Something like this...

ALL people do good, and they all do evil. There are some believers and some unbelievers who do tremendous amounts of good, and very little evil. There are also loads of believers and loads of unbelievers who do very little good, but large amounts of evil.

In the sheep and goats parable, why is it that the King doesn't acknowledge the evil that the sheep did? It's because the sheep believe in the salvation that Jesus provided, and the sins (evil) have been washed away in Jesus blood. Their sins don't exist any longer because they are covered by the blood of Jesus. All that is left is the good, however small it may be.

With the goats, why doesn't the King acknowledge the good that they did, even though they did some evil right along with the good (just like the sheep)? Saint Paul explains it simply and clearly in the easy words, Romans 14:23b, "...and everything that does not come from faith is sin," - https://biblehub.com/romans/14-23.htm. So, for the goats, everything, even the good, is sin. Why? Because it was not done in faith.

Good works are to be done by believers because their faith is tested and diminished when they sin, especially if they do evil intentionally. Believers can lose their saving faith. But it is difficult, because God won't let them go easily.

One of the other good reasons why believers should do good and not do evil is, so that unbelievers can see that their godliness exists, so that these unbelievers also can turn to faith.

Nothing stops any believer or unbeliever from doing evil. But, reread Romans 14:23b above.

Christian, Jesus Christ revealed everything about heaven to the people that was privilege to be with him then. I also have the faith that heaven is real and it will be for only those who does the will of God here on earth. The bible has explained and told the Christians everything about life after death. Some other religion might not believe in this because we all have our different belief and faith. God is real and heaven is also real. I will try my best by the grace of God to go and meet my creator when I give up the ghost.

Hi all, here is a two part question:

Do you believe in Heaven?

I believe in the afterlife. Many religions believe that your works on earth determine how and where to spend your afterlife. And it is believed that the afterlife is everlasting. Although many false teachers have adulterated many religious teachings, I have stopped listening to them and focused on the Holy Book. And this sacred book unveils that if you live a righteous life on earth, you will go to heaven but if you are evil there is a place called hell waiting for you.

Quote
Do you expect to go to Heaven, when finished here on Earth?

I am aspiring to go to heaven when my time is up on earth. Living a righteous life is becoming hard every day because evil is taking over the earth. If you are not corrupt you might be subjected to hardship and poverty. But every day I keep fighting temptation that wants to make me derail from the path of truth. But I am hoping that when I stand before the judgment throne when my time is up on the earth, my maker will find me worthy to enter the gates of heaven.

I found the first two posts to both be thought provoking, thank you. I was raised very religious with church & church school every Sunday.

This is kind of funny to know. You asked a question so you don't expect response that you want to hear  Grin. The forum is filled with people of diverse religion, opinions and different in every other thing you can think of are viewed in different ways. So take it cool, you will see people responding the way you want it. Religion is the shaping value for the way people reason just like you were brought up in church and Christian way, of course heaven is real and Christians want to spend eternity in heaven but some Christians too don't believe that so open your mind but hold on to what you believe.

Religion gives you something to believe in, and in some religions mostly Christianity, a place called heaven is promised for people who live a good life here on earth, and hell for those who did not have a good life on earth. You are a Christian, so you believe in heaven, but many people who are believers in other religion have their own beliefs about what happens next when they close their eyes to life here on earth. You will find out where you will end up when you die.

In my teens, I found Ayn Rand's book Atlas Shrugged to be an amazing experience. Over the years, I've come to respect Rand's politics and in depth understanding of people and history more than her hostility towards religion. The idea of going somewhere wonderful after death has a strong appeal, especially as we get older, but I can't put too much faith in the concept, yet.

A: Nah, i don't need afterlife. This life is enough for me. Thought of that gives me peace and clarity and understanding that i need to cherish everything i have while i have it. I need to live my life to the end because i have it. While being kind to my family and friends and give my kids a better changes in life than i did.

I used to be religious, but after i understood what void it was filling, getting rid of it really balanced my life to better. I just don't need anyone in the sky watching me. Neither gods or government.

B: What will happen after i die? My body either get burned or buried. I guess my afterlife would feel similar to before i existed. Like nothing.

You miss a couple more questions, from the opposite direction. These questions are:
1. Does the universe exit?
2. Does life exist?
The reason why these are important is, nobody can prove them with solid, empirical science.

Big Bang is a fantasy that sounds good to those who need it to believe in. But the science behind BB is so extremely lacking that it is really utter foolishness. Besides, asking any layman to understand the little science there is, makes the whole topic of this question in a public forum to be foolishness.

As far as life goes, the dividing line between something that is dead, and the moment before while it was still alive, hasn't been found. If it is close to being found, it is understood (almost) by a few technical people, but absolutely none of us lay people.

The point of asking these two additional questions is, before we ask about some fanciful place called Heaven, we really need to be afraid, because we don't really know anything about this age.

But take heart. Since this universe and life seem to exist without proof, and without the knowledge of how such could be possible, something like Heaven could exist for the same, unknown reasons.
