I think one of the reasons bad peole live longer is that God goves them a chance to change their ways and become better persons.. so they won't go to hell. God gives them a chance to turn away from their sins and repent and go back to Hm, isn't He just so compassionate? What abut you, why do you think bad people live longer than good ones sometimes?

hi stanley777, I dont think that bad people must live longer or shorter. I think God the only one knows and responsible in people soul. We dont have to judge bad or good people must have a better long live or not. I believe that everyone have a good side, even a bad people. So we dont have to think that someone deserve to go hell or not, God know everything

Yeah it's not for us to judge other people.Just an observation of mine because some people prefer to do bad things and they still doing it over and over again.My opinion is God made them live longer until they have repent on their sins and return to Him.thanks...

A coincidence maybe? Not all bad people live longer, and not all good people live shorter. :)
Or maybe... God want's them to change, so He gives them more time. :) ahehehehe. Peace!

Yap, maybe just a coincidence because only God knows what His plans for them.And the best way for us to do is refrain from doing things which we think is not acceptable to Him.thanks for the lines...

Hey friend i think exactly the same. Bad people live longer because God gives them a opportunity to change their life. Because God doesnt one anybody to go to hell he wants everybody in his kingdom to enjoy the heavenly mansions. If a person is bad and we think how this guys lives so longer.. it is just about God showing them the right way towards life.

Well, i both agree with you two on that. I think God really gives everyone a chance to reform before they die. Isn't he very forgiving father?

Yes, God gives all a chance especially those who goes astray because He is a forgiving God.He is a loving and patient God and gives special attention who have forgotten Him. Thanks for both of you...

It's just an observation of mine and there is no known facts that will support it.Only God is the One who knows everything and the reason for me is that He gives time to those people to change.thanks

So they have a purpose in life, I guess we do all have.God had given us free will what ever we desire in life.I hope you do notice too that these people are given a chance for them to repent their sins and sometimes He use them as an example that it's not too late to make changes.thanks

when you say that person beside me is bad, meaning, 50percent he has also good in his character.....
since no person is purely bad unless that person is an immortal one....
its like a Yin and Yang..... no matter how much bad you are, there are always contains a good one to yourself.....

Yeah it's a balance of nature if that is the right term for it.Anyway I think everyone of us is a good person especially inside it's the outside or the environment that influence to do some bad things.thanks for your time my friend.

I differ on my opinion about this topic. God perhaps wants good people to be at his place. This world is a hell and so the evil or the bad people stay here much longer coz they deserve it

Yes, maybe on your second sentence but I beg to disagree with you on the last part.Did you mean you consider our present world hell, I don't think so.God gave us this wonderful world to live in and enjoy it's vastness for our own good.Just make use of it in the way God have instructed us.Bad people having longer life, maybe it's just a coincidence but only God knows why.thanks for the response.

Thanks indahfth, It's just an observation of mine.Maybe there's a reason for all why we judge others especially the bad ones.One thing for sure God is giving us a chance to change our bad habits and He is a patient God.

Commonly people out there will thought that God will give bad people more life time for them just for realize their sins. Actually such thing is just a common thought. Good people actually has longer life chance since they have a good life, good manner, good thought and so on. Bad people seem have longer life is just because a bad people usually become a 'star' on their society. So more people paying attention to them instead to good people. Even we usually paying attention to monitoring bad people's activities. Let's make it simple, it's easy to remember who owe you than to remember who rent you some money. It's easy to remember someone's bad rather than remember about someone's good to you. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

yeah, maybe we focus more on the wrong doings of some people.It's because we see bad people what they have done and have being doing and even they remain at large.So we think they they have longer life than good people.Only God knows why.thank you for the lines...

I agree with you.God gives us all several chances to shape up i think some people have more chances.
he isnt cruel like how some interesting christians make him out to be.
thats why when some confused person told me "god sends babies to hell"
I thought he was on something..
Btw none of us are good since we all have sinned.some of us are just worse then others ^_^

Yes, He gives us time to change and God does not lost His patience for anyone either good or bad.As you have said we are all sinners and He gives us all the chances to change.One proof is by giving the wrong doers a chance for them to make up for their sins.thanks

I don't think they are happy to abuse people maybe in some way.These people have no contentment in life especially to material things, they are not satisfied what they have got and gets hungry for more but God still gave time for them to change and go back to Him.thanks..

I agree with you. God is good and He wants us to live with him. And those bad people that live longer should know that God loves them and give them chance to make their mistakes right. But I don't believe that good people have a shorter life. God see us equally and if you will obey and love Him, blessings and long life will bestowed upon His people.

Yes, God is really a loving and understanding God because He gives all a chance especially those who have pick the wrong path.He specially gives these people chance to repent and change their life and He have all the patience you can ask for.I mean not all because all of us is treated by Him equally, thanks...

I do not agree with you,because the bad people must be punished,or the good will never feel justice.

Yes, you may say that.It's just an observation of mine maybe God had plans for them.That is why they give more time to people who have done bad things, time for them to repent because we are all equal in the eyes of God.

Before to talk about this issue,we must clear what is bad and good. Usually we judge it form our commen idea , heard form other people or form book and media.On the other hand our judgments of good or bad is base on our personal experience or thought.So what is the reall truth.May be something or someone is good ,how about ten years later, he or she will become a bad person. there are so many example in history.
So I think there is few relations butween living longer and good or bad man.

Yes, your right my friend but I didn't mean it literally.There are some who were able to live longer in time for them to change their lifestyle and go back to God.And there are some whom you said are have done good deeds on their early life but later change but still God has time for them and waiting for them to go back.thanks

I don't think bad people necessarily live longer. They probably just live longer than they should! I would say they live long lives because they are meant to teach us lessons and show us examples of what we don't want to be and the consequences of becoming a bad person. I think about when I was younger and hearing the news and the crime and at that age you learn that is not who you want to be because you don't want to end up in jail and you want to make a difference in the world. If the bad people didn't live long lives, more would just be created because they didn't have examples to learn from.

Yeah we can say that what I mean is why, maybe there's reason or maybe just a coincidence.Well we don't know only God knows.It's base on my observation to some people I know, maybe God is giving them a chance to repent and go back to Him.Thanks...
