I'm not afraid of death because I consider it just another part of life.

No. I'm not afraid of physical death. Physical death is simply a "change" so that life can continue ...
Why am I here? To experience this world that God Created.
Why will I die? Because this world has limitation so that others may come. (Get a little crouded if it didn't work this way, don't ya think?)
Where will I go from here? Doesn't matter to me. I'm making it though this place ... I think I'll be OK in the next experience.
Believe in Heaven? Sure ...
Hell? That's for those that wern't worthy of the life God gave them here. I feel God is justified in taking out the trash.

Where did we come from? . why am we here ?.Where will we go when we leave ?.these are the questions of a sane person .Death comes to thoughts who do not ask, this is called insane! The body finishes and the "soul / spirit", what ever you call yourself when you come to understand who you are , and that`s where you realize that in conjunction with the mind and connected to the senses we believe that we are the body called what ever ,Susan ,mike, male, female and so on .The mind acts as a photo copier and at the end of your time old age,your last photo in life will determine were and what or why you will go .To do this you must use the intelligence or knowledge to realize our existences in life and in death ." We" the spirit or soul is full of knowledge , full of bliss, and eternal, and never dies.so the body is temporary and the soul lives on forever . so i`m not afraid of death . Thank You.

No I'm not afraid of death because of
Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto man once to die,but after this the judgment.
I heard a preacher say once die empty and not full I can't remember his name however he said so many of us die without even trying to bring the gifts we have to the light Do you understand what I'm saying? Plus I almost died in 1999 and God Gave me another chance to learn more about him,and live to please him Life is way to short to be willingly ignorant of Who God is I'm glad you know about him. Keep it up it's a life time walk. Have A Blessed Life and read your Bible Everyday

I'm not afraid of death. I have seen enough death in this life time to really have to come to grips with it. I also have my own personal experiences that assure me that their is life after I leave this body. I don't believe in heaven or hell. I believe in lessons to be learned for growth to occur.

If you really believe in God, then you shouldn't be afraid of death, as the bible says to be absent of the body is to be in the presence of God. To them that have accepted his son into their heart at least, you should expect to live a life in heaven with God forever.
However if you just know about God, but haven't accepted his son into your heart and asked him to forgive you of all of your sins, then being afraid of death should be natural.
My opinion based on the Word of God.

Bible doesn't say we will go to hell or heaven immediately after death. It is the reward we will receive whwn Jesus comes for the second time. It will happen at Jesus' Second Coming. And I also believe hell won't burn eternally. Will a loving God torment his enemies FOR EVER

why be afraid of death? If we live our life fully and made spiritual progress, our death will be a festival
Like we change old clothes, our soul changes bodies and is ready for new lessons, new experiences in new environments.
Death is an opportunity, death is a reminder that life has not yet found its immortality

Why are we here? People have long wondered about the meaning of life on earth. They have looked at the star-filled sky. They have admiored a colorful sunset and the beauty of the countryside. Thinking persons have reasoned that there must be some grand purpose to all these things. But often they have wondered where they fit in.(Psalm8:3,4)
At some time in life most people ask:Are we just to live a short time, get what we can out of life, and then die? Where are we really going? Is there more that we can expect than the brief cycle of birth, life and death? What will help us understand this matter is the answer to the question How did we get here? EVOLUTION OR CREATION?
In some places it is commonly taught that everything we see just happened by itself, that it came about by chance or accident. Over many millions of years, it is said life evolved, or developed from lower forms until finaly humans came into existance. In many parts of the earth this theory of evolution is taught as fact. But is it true that we came from an apelike beast that lived millions of years ago? Did this great universe just come about by accident?
The Bible says: "In the beginning God vreated the heavens and the earth."(Genesis1:1) And the facts of science agree that the heavens with their billions of stars, and our earth had a beginning. They were created. The movements of the stars and the planetsare so regular that even years in advance their position can be determined even years in advance with perfect accuracy. The stars and planets move in the universe according to the laws and principles of mathematics. A professor of mathematics from the University of Cambridge, PDirac, said, in the magazine Scientific American: "One could perhaps describe the situation by saying that God is a mathematician of very high order, and He used very advanced mathematics in constructing the universe."
The Bible states: "Know that Jehovah is God. It is he that has made us, and not we ourselves."(Psalm100:3) Our human body shows such wonderful design that one Bible writer was moved to say to God: "I shal laud you because in a fearinspiring way I am wonderfully made...My bones were not hidden from you when I was made in secret....Your eyes saw even the embryo of me, and all its parts were down in writing." (Psalm139:14-16) Ababy developsinside its mother in a wonderful way. Newsweek magazine said this : "It is quite simply a miracle." Then it added: "No technique can pinpoint the momentous time of conception. No scientist can tell what wonderous forces then take over to develop the organs and myriad of nerve network of a human embryo."
Think about our great universe,, as well as our own body with its wonderful construction and design. Sound reasoning should tell us that these things did not simply evolve or come by themselves. They had to have a Designer, a Creator. Consider other things that we see around us. When you are in your house ask yourself: Did my desk, lamp,bed, chair,table, walls, or even the house itself, evolve? ''or did they need a maker? Of course intelligent persons had to make them! In what way, then, can it be claimed that our much more complex universe and we ourselves did not require a maker? And if God put us here he surely had a reason for doing so.
It was not God's purpose for Adam and
Eveto die after a while and live somewhere else. They were to stay here to take care of the earth and all its living things. As the Bible says 'God blessed them and said to them: be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the earth.' (Genesis1:28;2:15) Adam and Eve, as well as all the children they would have, could have been happy on earth forever doing the things that God wanted them to do.
Notice that "God blessed them." He really cared about his earthly children. So as a loving Father he gave them instructions that were for their good. They would have found happiness in obeying those instructions. Jesus knew this and so later said:"Happy are those hearing the word of God and keeping it!"(Luke11:28) Jesus kept Gods word. "I always do the things pleasing to him,"he said(John8:29) This is the key to the very reason we are here. It is to have full, happy lives by living in harmony withGod's will. It will give real meaning to our lives now, to serve Jehovah. And by doing so we will be putting ourselves in line to live forever in Paradise earth.(Psalm37:11,29) And God's purpose for his earthly children has not changed. He will bring it about through his Son Jesus Crist and his messianic kingdom. That is why although all my life I have been afraid to die, since I have come to know about The purpose in our Life I am not afraid to die any more nor do I need to worry about a fiery hell, where I might have to be burned forever! Which is nonexistant!
