Afterlife plays a main role in a lot of religions just a question I ask everyone, personally I would love for there to be one but I can't force myself to believe in one without and credible evidence to back it up. Also, If reincarnation was true and you could pick what you come back as, what would you be? (Been wanting to use that smiley since I joined lol)
I would just like to be immortal on Earth and not have to die. I don't like reincarnation because all our memories are supposedly lost (for the most part). I'd like for heaven to exist. Sure.
Earth is where God is setting up His Kingdom. It will be here, not in some other plane of existence. The citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven will be immortal and possess bodies that are a combination of matter and spirit, where they have a tangible existence, but are not restricted by physical laws. For instance, Jesus after the resurrection was able to pass through walls, and appear and disappear.
Since you wouldn't mind living in the Kingdom of Heaven, my question is this..If Jesus let you know that He is real, would you accept His Lordship over your life?

Completely agree, to me heaven sounds rather boring to just praise and worship some god for all eternity.
The Kingdom of Heaven will be on Earth, and why would you think it would be boring? Heaven is the creative center of existence..if God can create a Universe what else do you think He could do?
