Were you afraid before you were born? No. So why would you be afraid to die?

Repent from your sins, get baptized, and believe that Jesus, the Son of God, gave His life and bore the punishment you and I deserve for our sins, and that He was crucified , buried and rose again on the third day. It's not the 1st death you need to fear. It's the second. If you put your faith in Christ, you will live forever. He is the way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father, except through Him. Do it as soon as you can.

September 23rd is coming, and it is possible He is coming to get His church before things get really bad here. There's a lot behind this. No time to explain all that right now.

But put your faith in Christ as soon as you can!

Why would you fear that? We are immortal souls brother, the earth is simply a test for you to work on some of your flaws to become closer to the one aka God. Been there didn’t want to come back, I hate being limited by these shitty little bodies sometimes but enjoy the time with my family.

Death is nothing but a move to the next dimension

That’s kind of the point, eternal nothingness after having this is terrifying IMO


This is what fascinates me about Deja Vu. What if you were in that situation and point in time before in some other life? It's intense shite to think about, but I really believe that there is something else out there. No one remembers what it was like before they were born. But at some point you start forming memories. Before that, what if it all was just some kind of reset?

You get it. The majority off the bullshite we go through everyday means absolutely nothing. You mentioned the only 2 things that have any kind of value. The rest of it is one big workshop for your soul. When you meet someone that has experienced true change, that is just a segment of the workshop that they completed.

It's the beginning of the Jewish Feast of Trumpets , also called Rosh Hashanah. Jesus fulfilled the first four feasts. There are three to go. Many Christians believe that the "taken up", (Harpazo in the Greek) i.e. "rapture" could occur during this feast. A lot of things do line up. The Feast of Trumpets officially begins at the new moon. Traditionally, the Jews would watch the moon, and at the first sign of the new moon, the Feast would start; hence it was said of that Feast "no man knows the hour". Many think this was what Jesus was referring to when he referred to that when talking to His disciples. This September 23rd will be the last time from which it will be exactly 7.0 years falling on the Day of Antonement. There were only 6 other times prior where this, and they all occured since Israel became a nation in 1948. There are many other signs showing we are on the edge of His return. Israel is ready to build the Third Temple. They have already sacrificed two red heifers. The UN is meeting in September to discuss the Gaza & Palestinian issue and Israel.

By saying that, I meant that time is closing quickly, and people who do not know Christ, need to come to Him now and not put it off. His coming for His church is imminent.

I’ve come to the conclusion that none of us are getting out of here alive, and we don’t know when, or how. So, why would you worry about it?

I wasn't aware either. May of 2024 when she started experiencing loss of strength, etc I asked ChatGPT, I put as much information about what she was experiencing as possible and it said that it is a very likely als. I didn't say anything to her because ChatGPT isn't a doctor and just in case it was something else, there was no need to put that out there at the time.

Anyway, I told it that her mother had it as well and it said a child whose parent had als has almost a 50% chance of getting it? I thought that was high.. She is the oldest of 8 kids and so for she is the only one to have it.

Why would I be when I have Jesus. Find Him and you won't fear anything.

I am. But I watched the last episode of Blacklist last night. I know it’s a few years old but it’s a good show. Raymond Reddington was not afraid of death at all. He welcomed it. Fiction yes, but cool character nonetheless.

And lately I’ve been less afraid and I don’t think I’d mind. For a number of reasons, I don’t see much point to this crap anymore. I almost died about a year ago to the day. And sometimes I wish I had.

Not afraid of death at all. I’ve lived the life they way it happened. Once I got sober my outlook on everything changed. When god is ready for me I’m ready to be with him.

No reason to be afraid. It’s one of very few things that comes with absolute certainty.

Make peace with God.

Live each day to the fullest because it can be your last
