sadly the way in which i will die. i dont want to drown, and i dont want to be chained up. when i die, i will either experience nothingness or heaven. it depends if my christian faith is wrong (nothing) or right (heaven). thats nothing to be scared of, though i hope i am around long enough to be mentally ready for death and financially ready for my kids. i'd prefer to have it happen when im old and grey, but who knows.

I have no fear of what happens after death. I don't think anyone who dies regardless of religion/no religion has anything to fear or will fear after they are dead. I wouldn't want to die a slow painful death though so I guess that would be my greatest fear. I don't spend time worrying about that happening to me though. I try to spend it making the most of my life in the here and now and planning to the extent I can a positive future.

I believe there are two ways a person goes after death; the first, my favorite, is heaven but I haven't lived up to its standards because I have the free will to choose whatever I want to do. Second, is hell which I believe is the place I'm headed if I don't change my ways. Meaning that I have to forsake every thing that I like doing that isn't right with God.

I fear the way i would die not what happens after death. I just hope i don't die in terror or in too much pain. I don't dwell on death though i am living so thats what i think about.

Personally Jules I fear both but not to the point of mania,I can`t know how I will die but I hope it is quick when it comes, after death when I have to face God I will be a shivering wreck.

The way I'll die. I have real fears of longdrawnout suffering (like dying of cancer or some other disease for years) or being decapitated and having to be awake for it like those poor hostages. I'm hoping I die of either a surfing accident or extreme sexual exhaustion, in my nineties, but of course I'm sure most people feel similarly.

If you don't know Jesus as your personal Savior, then you had best fear what happens when you leave this world.
That is really the true reason that people fear death because deep
down they KNOW that God is real and that they will have to stand
before Him and give account -- and maybe they don't even know that they have a CHOICE about where they will spend eternity.
Read Romans ch. 1 -- and also Heb. 2.
Man will be without excuse when they come to stand before God
one day!!
Your only hope in escaping the most horrible fate that you can - or even CAN'T - imagine is by putting your COMPLETE TRUST in Jesus - Y'shua - as your Lord and Savior and in His precious BLOOD that takes away all your sins forever -- but ONLY if you
receive it.
Would you let a priceless inheritance sit in a bank or wherever and just ignore it all your life and then after you die, you were re-minded that it was there for you all along, but you neglected it or didn't believe it or whatever reason one might have...and now it can never do you any good and you will be lost forever without it.
Salvation is FREE to all, but it cost God everything He had!!!
Please -- if you care at all about what happens to you when you do leave this world, please call -- 1-800-759-0700 -- and talk to someone about where you are going to spend eternity.
God wants you in heaven with Him forever, but He will not make up your mind for you!! It's up to you -- for those who have not yet
made peace with God through His dear Son, Who died just for you -- and He would have died even if YOU were the only person on earth who needed salvation!!!
God's love and mercy is for ALL the world, but it's also JUST FOR YOU!!!
Jesus said, -- THE ONE WHO COMES TO ME, I WILL IN NO WISE CAST OUT!!! -- John 6:37,
GOD WILL NEVER TURN YOU AWAY!!
If you want to be saved, God is right there just WAITING for you to
come to Him!!!
Read Luke 15.
God HAS all the glory and beauty of heaven, but what He WANTS
is for YOU to come to Him and become His child forever through faith in Jesus!!
God was not taken by surprise when Adam disobeyed and handed this earth and all of us over to satan. He knew what He
was going to do even BEFORE He created everything and before
He created us in His image.
Jesus is the Lamb slain BEFORE the foundation of the world.

To know that death is like a very deep sleep and what hope there is for the dead, not really. I am more afraid i will not endure this race, that I may not be worthy of resurrection (if i die) or of eternal life.

The way in which I'll die. I'm quitting smoking on the 15th because I don't want to die of cancer. I may die of cancer anyway, but at least I'd know that I tried to prevent it.

We're really not supposed to fear, but I have to have fatih that God will take care of me while I pass through Death to meet Him in Eternity. Psalms 23 says yea though I walk through the valley of death I will fear no evil. Because His rod and His staff comforts me.
