if god gave u a choice....u could live now and suffer later or u can suffer now and live forever...?

Question

which would u rather do???
knowing that u may never see ur loved ones as they r now, and knowing that things might not be the same as they were....this may be the hardest question ever if u answer truly with ur heart (Angel) and not ur american gut

OK PPL, if God said go 7 days without eating, for him, would u do it and forever live on...or would u eat that whole week and die on the 8th day...that's what i mean

for some of u ppl, i should have asked do u want to live or die, just because God knows u best, he knows what u will do before u do it, so stop being, well, stupid, and give ur lives to God...plzzzzz

just so u ppl can understand, i am iraqi but have no religion...i believe in God, u and myself...without any of us there will be no world, so don't judge me, join me

Answer 1

Everyone has a choice, but not between the exact choices you've offered for us to pick from. The opportunity is to live (& possibly die) now -- with the many troubles, pains, & afflictions of this current situation -- but, with a Definate Hope that we can Realistically hold on to. I know several others who believe the same, and invite you to read the articles some of them have prepared on the subject:

I -- along with all of my close friends -- appreciate the opportunity to live now, & help others to understand what the REAL opportunity is ... that of helping others take hold for themselves of the Scripturally-based hope of the majority of mankind: Living Forever -- in a Paradise -- on Earth ... including those who have died (who will be Resurrected & 'given Another Chance', just like everyone else). The Scriptures have always born this out. The idea of any resurrection to heaven was only introduced by Christ to his chosen "little flock", who are to rule with him over the earth & mankind. You are Welcome to Compare the Scriptures I've listed on my Q&A page regarding this statement, in various Bible translations/versions (also listed there). Yes ... I hope to live in the Restored Earthly Paradise, for as long as I'm faithful ... even forever!

Answer 2

I would live now and suffer later.

I watched the green mile again the other day, and the old guy at the end had been suffering for many years watching his loved ones die, seeing sights of war and abuse to his fellow man. I think it would be awful to live forever!
I would sooner enjoy my life right now and then when my time comes let me go with some dignity!

Answer 3

I would rather live now and suffer later. I'm just about to graduate high school so I have so many things to live for right now and I don't need any suffering. Then I go to college and I'm really excited about it and also about becoming an elementary school teacher in the future. Of course, I'd love to never suffer.

Answer 4

Certainly now not. I'm an atheist due to the fact that there's no empirical proof which indicates it's even rather feasible for supernatural deities to exist. The Universe conveniently does not paintings that approach. Verifiable info are the only real dependable supply of fact. Whatever humans do or don't consider has no final result on whatever that's honestly truly.

Answer 5

truthfully i will rather suffer now and live forever. But that won't be the Major problem. the difficulty comes in when the desire to enjoy life now will constantly be a temptation.When i am going through hurt and pain today, it always feel as though the bright day won't ever come.As though the suffering that is scheduled for decades has been reappointed for centuries.
in spite of the temptation i will still fight to suffer now and live forever; even if i "FAIL" in trying.

Answer 6

I would rather suffer now get past it and then live without suffering forever. I would only miss one family member and sooner or later she will die so if it is sooner then so be it. I would like to be frozen for about 50-75 years and be woken up again.

Answer 7

I would live now and suffer later of course! Why would anyone want to live forever? No one else would be alive with them. To be alive forever is basically like suffering forever because there would be no hope left. One would know that he were to remain on earth for all eternity. Think of the length of eternity and decide whether you would like to live forever in this hell hole called "Earth" or if you would like to live in paradise forever.

Answer 8

i would rather suffer now and live forever.
We are here to prepare ourselves for our next life with God.
All the sacrifices, the suffering, the choices, these are nothing more than pieces of the puzzle which once the puzzle is complete our life as we know it ends. And the way this puzzle was completed, is the way that we will live for the eternal life.

Answer 9

To live forever is a suffering in itself isn't it? I would rather not suffer at all thank-you for asking.

Answer 10

Don't understand the question-why suffer?
What does that mean you could live now and suffer later?
