The Final Question

November 26, 2011 6:38pm CST
The vast majority of people believe that when you die and go to stand before "God" (or whatever higher Divinity you worship) They will ask you a single question. Most also believe that the question you will be asked is "What have you done with your life?" I disagree. God knows what you have done with your life. He was there. He watched the whole thing from start to finish just like a movie. What I believe God will ask you is no what have you done with your life BUT is in fact, "Would you do it all over again?" Questions? Comments? What question do you think you will be asked when you die?

What you understand from this ? "Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still together on the way, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison" Imagine your adversary is your conscience.God doesn`t have to ask you anything.You are the one who throws himself into prison.

You are right it means to clear your conscience while you still live.It doesn`t matter what hell is, the prison can be the a nightmare for your mind because you will have to face your sins and feel sorry for what you did every day.

In reality, when you die,your life will flash before you. You will know who you are. When you go to God, words will not be needed. When you are with God, you will understand where you are and where you need to be. You see, knowing God and you are going to want to be just like Him. You will have the very hardest judge of all, YOURSELF! Who knows how long we bask in God's Unconditional Love?? It's enough to open our minds again and ready us for the lessons and new life to come. With each life we learn. With each step, we come closer to becoming like God. There is much to learn.

I agree. there certainly is much to learn. Isn't that the purpose of life? to learn all we can, to grow to become closer to the Divine Spirit through the lessons we have learned? :)

I read somewhere we are judged by the harshest critic of all...our-selves and the only thing I can make of that is we go into a different mind frame and we do judge our-selves we can't lie because we know what we did, maybe we don't need to be asked anything by anyone else.

Hi Lady... I think God should not ask anything... He should simply pronounce whether it has been good life or bad/sinner's life... And He should pronounce rewards/punishments etc... Why should He ask us anything??

A nice topic to reflect upon ... To ancient egyptians when you die your heart will we weighed upon a scale of some sort by the God Thoth and its against a feather of Ma'at. Back then there was really never anything to be asked you are automatically judged. If ever just to add humor (no harm intended) God should ask the person to choose between briefcases each carying different degrees of heaven or hell. The asks "deal or NO deal"

I dont think God would really ask anything like that, I think more that he will give you questions that will make you reflect on your life and make you think about it, then he will ask if you're truly sorry for what you've done, and after that idk haha. either Heaven or Hell I guess :o
