As a Christian, how do you choose to die? I am sorry to ask such chilly question, but we do need think of it ahead. Last night my husband mentioned his will again; I had emphasized many times of my will, "do NOT add I and my daughter's names to your property, leave it to your children."

He said, he wanted to make sure that we would be taken care of. I comforted him, "if you died, I wouldn't live longer." he said, how about your 10-year-old daughter? I told him, "she has God, God will take care of her. David said in Book of Psalms 37:25-26, 'I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread. They are always generous and lend freely; their children will be blessed.' Besides, you are less than 50 and very healthy, how can you die so early?" He smiled, "who knows? Maybe a murder or an accident happens." I shouted, "you will never die unless you will have finished the purpose God has ordained you."

From all prophets in the old testament to Jesus' apostles, who died of murders, accidents and diseases?! We are godly people, and we all have presented our lives as living sacrifices to God, so we are sanctified in God's sight. Even our hairs are counted by God. "precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful ones."---Book of Psalms 116:15.

Some people would say, you are not righteous. yes! We are! not by our actions but by our faiths plus His grace. NO one can take our lives away unless we are willing to give them away, like Jesus and all apostles did. I choose to die of Gospel or natural aging. No accident or murder or disease will cause my death.

I was a bit angry and yelled at him, "WHERE IS YOUR FAITH !" He said , "I do have faith !" "So, don't think of murders or accidents or diseases! If you really died of Gospel or natural aging, I will return china and leave your children everything of you; I will be happy to live in church again to be a faithful gatekeeper of God's house, or go to spread Gospel and encourage weak believers." I laughed, our destinies must be fulfilled ! Nothing can stop! We laughed and cried.


You will say, many Christians died of diseases, accidents or even murders. yes. it is true. I don't know whether they prepared their spirits well enough or not. One thing is sure, if you present your life as a living sacrifice towards God, then you are sanctified in the sight of God. God is a spirit, of course, you should live by faith not by flesh, to be specific, live by unseen holy imagination instead of by seeing or feeling. 1John5:4,For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.So it is your faith that will convince you, "I shall never die of any murder or accident or disease !"

"How do you choose to die" is a holy question to all Christians. I choose to die of Gospel or natural aging. How about you? My brothers and sisters. you have right to choose but non Christian don't have such choice.
