/I'm not talking about an afterlife, which is what I presume you mean by Pascal's wager.
Christianity is embracing positivity. God is good etc. In it you are acknowledging that doing good stuff is beneficial. Rejecting God is embracing bad stuff. (You might have to grant the goodness idea if you're of the opinion of the God concept being evil).
The after life is important in this consideration, because God nor this reality could be seen to be 'good' with injustices we observe. The afterlife allows God the ability to enact justice: therefore we can be justified in believing in positivity given a now just reality.
