If I lead a very boring life, will I be rewarded with an eterity of bordom?

Question

by boring i mean getting into yukky clothes to goto church and sing aweful songs, then having no sex.........really is it to much to ask?

Answer 1

Sounds like you should go buy some new clothes and maybe find a new church one that sings fun songs. Ask a woman out on a date and see what happens.....

Going to Church isn't boring, it's only for an hour or two a week, is it really to much to ask??
Funny that I am saying this because I myself do not go to church, I used to, and I miss it now. I still talk to God and pray and try to be a good person everyday.

Answer 2

Well Antoni, I suppose you will, if that is what you resign yourself to. Personally, church and religion, god and the devil is just too complicated to me, more like cinematic. We are indoctrinated since birth to believe in one thing over another, but it's not until you make the decision for yourself that you begin to understand what is important to you. That and the understanding that there is certainly a difference between spirituality and religion. To be spiritual is to have a connection with life and to perceive it to be more important, more complex, than your understanding or view of the world in contrast with your indoctrination. You shed what you have been taught about the world when you form your own understanding of it that cannot be taken from you or belittled by anyone. Some call that wisdom. Religion is that indoctrination, or structured belief system created by man, not god. Religion often has little to do with what will become your eternity because at the very least, there are many ways to acheive enlightenment in this world. I could go on and on about my disdain for religion, but I won't. It's nothing anyone hasn't heard before and would be purely my opinion. I'll just share my spirituality and what it means to me. I believe in Karma. I can't say I have a relationship with Christ or god mainly because they are intangible, and any means of doing so would amount to being psychotic. But I believe that you should do unto others what you whould have them do unto you. And that simple belief forms the structure of my spirituality. I read no more or no less into it than that. I don't wear yukky clothes just to spend what amounts to a waste of time going someplace I do not want to be, I don't sing aweful songs and I certainly have sex when and how I please along with all the other things I enjoy that are deemed "of the flesh". My life will be what I make it, and will not be governed by some "God".

My opinion only.

Answer 3

Are you saying Christianity is boring? And if you follow this boring religion you'll go to a boring eternity later?

Hmm! I used to think that way, because that's what Christianity seemed to me - just as you say, getting into yukky clothes, singing awful songs, no sex, etc. Yes, yes, yes, it really is too much to ask!

If Christianity really were like that - like being a bird in a cage - what I would do is leave the decision till my deathbed (if God spares you that long) and enjoy life in the meantime, as someone has already suggested. Yes, that sounds the wisest thing to do, if Christianity really were like that.

You poor thing! You really haven't found out what Christianity essentially IS, have you? Your religion is all external, all to do with practices, do this and don't do that, but you don't really know Christ at all. What you've been sold is religion. No wonder you're 'sick as a Cleethorpes donkey'! No wonder you feel rebellious! You've been sold the packaging with nothing inside!

Get out of there and find the real thing before you're put off for life! Find the real Christianity before it's too late and you become a God-hater. Start seeking God yourself and forget about conforming to the religious mold people are trying to press you into.

God, the personal God, is out there, and he wants to reveal himself to YOU. He works very hard to make contact, but people have a way of missing him anyway.

He is - actually - an exciting God, and full of surprises. He makes life fun (yes, he actually does!) when you begin to really get to know him. He lights up your life, because he IS life and so he knows how to show you how to live your life so that you enjoy it and find real fulfilment, as you were always intended to do.

Go for it! He's out there somewhere, looking for you, too. Scripture says that those who seek him will find him, when they seek him with all their heart (Deut. 4:29).

Answer 4

You reap what you sow.

If you put effort into your life, live your life to the best of your abilities, and do all that you can, you will be rewarded for it in this life; and in eternity.

If you follow your morals, principles, and beliefs, you will be rewarded for that also. I believe that one of the greatest mistakes people make is going against their own beliefs.

The same is true for the opposite. If you sit back and do nothing, you will receive nothing.

The greatest mistake someone can make in life is not truly living.

Answer 5

This is a difficult thing to explain but when you get close to God, you are at complete peace and are completely satisfied. Think of the best feeling you have ever had and multiply it a million times and think of that feeling going on forever. That is eternity. You do not have to be doing anything to be satisfied there.

Answer 6

properly, it relies upon. Is the christian merely optimum a godly ethical existence by means of fact he/she needs to bypass to heaven? Or by means of fact he/she is conscious it is the main suitable element to do? If the latter is genuine, then they are the two selfless. And the two way, the atheist could additionally in all risk bypass to heaven... if heaven exists, it is.

Answer 7

Answer 8
