Most people are called to nothing, do nothing of any consequence, eat, consume, procreate an die without making a dent in this world.

That's a very sad commentary kosta50. It would seem from one who has no grasp of the world to come...let alone those along the way who have certainly left a mark on ones life. Most recognize that what matters above all else is our relationships forged along the way...which includes the one we share with Christ.

My brother and I were disgussing this last night....how we as a family have roots in our hometown..in the home we all shared...in the neighborhood we grew up in...though we experienced these as the individuals we are we are never-the-less united and share this bond of memories and thoughts of family and home where we grew up.

It's like this in life as we trudge along and make our life. People we meet along the way make a difference...and when we meet the Lord He makes a difference. It all makes a difference. What we do with these is the deciding factor.

What grasp do you have of the world to come based on the Bible?

Some do and some, most—vast majority—don't. The ones you will remember will be those who DO something that will affect your life, leave you an inheritance or robbing you at gunpoint. Works matter. In fact it's the ONLY thing that matters: what others do to us and we to them; what other do for us and we for them.

The rest is fluff.
