If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your savior, Az Joe, then death should have no fear for you, for when you die you will truly and immediately begin to live for eternity in the presence of God.
While it seems forever, because it is all we know and have experienced, our human life is but a blip in time. Life with Jesus and God, though is eternal...longer than can be imagined.
If you have not accepted Jesus as your savior, then you should fear death, as your eternal destination is hell, where, per the Bible, it is darker than we can imagine, it is constantly hot, full of never ending pain, lonely beyond understanding, and you would be so thirsty that the idea of even one drop of water placed on your tongue would bring a measure of relief...hell is not where one would want to spend eternity.
The process of becoming dead may not be enjoyable, but life after death, with Christ, is something to which the saved, those who have accepted Jesus as their savior, will receive as an eternal, joyful gift.
As Paul said, “to die is gain” for those in Christ.
God’s Word also says our days are numbered: thus, it is not up to us to take it upon ourselves to change what God has already ordained.
Have you accepted Jesus as your savior?
No one is talking about fear of dying, Idiot. Stay on topic
My older sister was an alcoholic and while she grew up in a Christian home, didn’t fully know Jesus. All she thought was that she was going to hell for all of the bad things she did.
After numerous DWI’s (thank God she never hit anyone) she spent a year in a women’s prison. Two women from the nearby small town shared the gospel with her and she was saved.
What had been phone calls full of fear of death and crying and shrieking became calls of wanting more knowledge of Christ and repentance.
On her death bed she said something like “It hurts so bad - but God has me in the palm of His hand and I’ll see him soon.”
It was so amazing to see the transformation in her. While she couldn’t fully kick the booze, her fear of death and a life full of regret was replaced with assurance and promise.
