"How will I die?"
A simple question,
yet a neglected one.

They tell us all the time,
"Think about your destiny."
But do we?

We say to ourselves,
"I still got my whole life ahead of me."
True enough,
but what if
that life happens to end tomorrow?

Why do we fail to understand
that this short life,
which we take for granted,
is absolutely NOTHING
compared to what's coming.

Let's be rational.
Let's ask ourselves,
before fulfilling a wrongful desire:
"Do I want to die doing this?
Is this worth the great torture
in the grave?
Is it worth the tremendous grieving,
the HORROR,
the undefined terrors
of the Inevitable Day?
Is it worth
the painful,
unbearable,
terrible,
horrific,
Eternal Punishment?
Does it make sense to spend 80-90 years
fulfilling our desires,
and then be doomed to spend an ETERNITY
in horrendous punishment?
Does it not make more sense
to spend 80-90 years being patient,
praying to God,
and then enjoy an ETERNITY
of joyful,
happy,
desirable,
beautiful
Reward in Paradise?"

You decide
which makes more sense.
After all,
the choice lies with none other than
yourself.

Just know one thing:
that your choice
will determine your destiny
for the next INFINITY years
after death.

Brothers and Sisters, this is a very serious point. You can even think about it mathematically:
Let's say a person lives for 90 years on Earth. After death, we will all live forever. (Either in torment or reward) How is "forever" expressed mathematically? "Infinity" is the number. Now what is 90 divided by infinity? 90/infinity equals ZERO! ZERO, brothers and sisters! That means that 90 is nothing compared to infinity! You decide which you want, the 90 or the infinity.
