"I wonder why those who value so little the life they actually have should want another."

For the believer in and follower of Lord Jesus Christ, it's the same life in Christ that began when he/she was born again of the Spirit. This new redeemed (saved) life will continue with Christ throughout eternity.

You may think of it that way, but Paul thought of it this way:

"For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come." (I Tim. 4:8)

It's the "life that now is" that most people squander while expecting one "which is to come." I wonder if they're planning to squander that one too.

What is it to you if they do?
